Description
I've worked in farms, administration, schools, horse racing stables and in video/documentaries making for the Belgian TV and NGOs.
I've also helped in orphanages/schools in Morocco, Bolivia, Jordan, South Africa and Uganda.
Some experience & interest in permaculture, self-sustainability, animal care, pool maintenance and equicoaching. Many house / farm / stables sitting.
Rather introvert and independent but enjoy meeting interesting people. I like a simple life.
Good sense of organisation and can take initiatives.
I am a morning person, like physical work and am very good at decluttering. + see skills

Feedback
Benoit was an excellent host, as I could choose when I wanted to work, rest and eat. He made sure that the fridge was full of food that me and the other workeraway liked. He and his girlfriend were really friendly and easy going.
Jan is easy going and as a reporter, he has many interesting stories to tell.
The food was really good. The area is pleasant : quiet and green with some shops close by.

En pause, j'ai eu l'occasion de nager … read more
