    Description

    Work in the Garden, which is big! And do all types of smaller projects. I live on a farm (no animals but a cat who lives outside). And there are always things to do. Painting, cleaning, gardening, but also time for a drink in the sun BBQ - sleep in a tent, or sleep in the farm. Campfire (not to big) - guitar / music

    I live by myself (my wife and I broke up 8 months ago). I am a relaxed guy. 50% I work at home / 50% I am out at customers or with friends/family

    Breda is near, Roosendaal is near, Bergen op Zoom is near, Antwerp is near, Amsterdam is 1hour by train from Breda. Rotterdam is 45 mins by train from Breda

  • Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    I like to exchange viewpoints on life. I am a coach to large corporations and their executive levels.

    I once engaged in workaway type activity myself (grape picking in France - long time ago) - my English is immaculate and I am very handy guy so I can teach you stuff. I like cycling (racing) beautiful cycling grounds here.

    Because we/i only have the farm for 2 years - there is not a lot of social interaction with the neighbourhood. I have a gardener and a DIY-guy who help me. Both are cool guys - they know a lot about the surroundings and places to go to

    Accommodation

    Multiple options. The attic or a small guest room.
    There is a good shower / no bath. I do have tents and a lof of space to freely set these up in case you want to sleep out in the open, with your own campfire and stuff - all good

  • What else ...

    What else ...

    This is the first time I am doing this. No clue how this works out. We will figure it out. I will try and find two bicycles. So you can reach the train and visit the small villages that are around here.

    I am on fibre / Nomads all good - I am setting up a camera security system - I may need some help. Probably this will be done by then. Internet connection is fibre here. I am not so good at setting this all up. Maybe you can optimise if needed

    Space for parking camper vans

    I have a nice seperated little meadow for you to stay. We need to do some prework to get your camper there. Also have a parking spot - there is a kitchen and a new toilet at the back of the farm. We need to do some work to set that up but that will be fine. You can cook there if needed
