Description
Welcome to our family in the Netherlands!
We are a warm and lively family with six children between the ages of 7 and 19, living in a spacious house surrounded by plenty of green and open space. Life here is busy, joyful, and full of activity!
We love meeting new people, sharing stories, and learning from others. We are a Christian family, but we warmly welcome people of all faiths or none – everyone is invited to feel at home here.
If you enjoy nature, family life, and being part of a friendly home for a while, we’d be happy to welcome you!

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
We live in Wageningen, a small town known for its world-famous agricultural university and international student community. Our area is rich in history, especially related to World War II, and it’s centrally located, making it easy to explore the rest of the Netherlands. Amsterdam is just about an hour away by train.
You can borrow a bike to discover the beautiful surroundings, and with excellent public transport connections (bus and train), it’s very easy to get around the country.

Help
We’re looking for Workawayers who’d like to give us a hand in our garden and with some cleaning in the house. There’s always something to do, from general gardening and small projects to simply helping keep things nice and tidy.

Accommodation
We offer a cozy little apartment that’s attached to our house. It’s small, but it has everything you need: your own bedroom, living room, kitchen, and bathroom, plus a washing machine and dryer.
Since it’s connected to our family home, you might sometimes hear a bit of our busy family life in the background – but there’s plenty of privacy, and it’s a comfortable place to relax and feel at home.
The small apartment has its own kitchen with full cooking facilities. We provide plenty of food and drinks so that you can prepare your own meals whenever you like. At the same time, we also enjoy sharing meals together now and then – it’s a great way to connect and exchange cultures.
What else ...
There’s always some work to do around the house and garden, and we really appreciate your help with that. At the same time, for us it’s not only about the work. We truly enjoy getting to know people from different places and sharing life together. The social aspect is just as important – whether that’s having good conversations over a meal or a cup of coffee, or simply learning from each other’s experiences.
