Description
Hi, my name is Aelin and I am a 22 year old cultural anthropology student at the University of Amsterdam. I am Dutch but was born and raised in a small town in Belgium. I love to discover new places and meet different people. I have visited quite some countries with my parents when I was younger and now want to spread my own wings to learn more about the world. Things that bring me happiness are: my family, wandering around, the beach, animals, art (painting, drawing, making collages), flowers, plants and much more. I would love to meet you!

More details about your skills
In september 2022 I will start my third year cultural anthropology and development sociology at the University of Amsterdam. I learned a lot already about social problems, development, sustainability, people and how they 'create or 'make' their worlds and much more. I love to think about these things and exchange opinions, ideas,... since there is and will always be still so much to learn (for me). I also gained some experience during my 'student jobs' in a bakery and a small tea house (as barista, waiter, ..). I actually just really love to learn new things! I am a quick learner and work hard.

What else ...
I have (had) many different hobbies: I like all kinds of sport (field hockey, surfing, soccer, horse riding, running,...), wandering around, going to museums, gardening and 'creating' (drawing, painting, ...). But there are so many things I still want to learn. For example: pottery, ice skating, languages, cooking,.... I also really love playing games. My favorite is Mahjong.

When I was there, there was also another workawayer which was really fun. We worked five hours a day for five days a week and could always send Jen a message with questions (even… read more

Aelin quickly became a wonderful part of our daily life. She was fantastic with my daughter, who grew very attached to her over the weeks. She also dove right into the farm projects, showing a… read more

I had a wonderful time at the stables! It was my first workaway experience and I couldn’t imagined it better! It is a beautiful place with a very relaxed sphere. Saita is extremely nice and friendly and (as others said in their feedback) welcomed me with open arms. She always helped me if I had questions or gave options to do! I worked mostly with… read more
