    Description

    Hi dear workawayers,

    We are Frank&Sylvia. We live near Nijmegen with our cute doggo Luigi. We are very active, love to travel, create, build and learn new things. We love to spend time outside and with friends: walking, mountainbiking, running, SUP-boarding, bouldering, hosting a diner, drink some beers at a campfire, going to a festival or doing a DIY-project. A few years ago, we lived in our homemade campervan for a year and did some workaways ourself which we loved. Now we would love to try the otherside of workaway by being a host. We are rebuilding our home after a fire and have a nice garden where we grow some veggies/fruits. Frank is taking some time off to rebuild the house. Would you like to learn from this handyman? Are you a carpenter/handyman yourself? Or would you like to do householdjobs, DIY projects in and around the house, give some love to and enjoy some walks with Luigi? Let us know! We are looking forward to it :)

    Frank & Sylvia

    PS We would love to show you our favorite places in the area/the Netherlands and really get to know you!

    PPS We will provide the food and a nice stay in our campervan or double bed room.
