  • Description

    Heyy,
    We are Anneke and Ben, a young couple from Germany. We are both 20 years old and just graduated from school last year. We loved traveling through Germany, visiting as many places as we could together. Now, we want to leave our comfort zone and see the world. Since we share many interests and hobbies, we've decided that we would be the perfect pair to embark on such an adventure.


    Now a few words about Ben,
    I have played football since I was a little kid and love doing physical activities. While attending school, I worked for an entertainment company that managed various events and festivals. My roles ranged from working as a wine server to being a security steward at a festival. After finishing school, I worked as a mason for a few weeks to earn enough money for this adventure. My friends would describe me as an extroverted person who loves meeting new people and learning about different cultures. For the first five years of my life, I lived in Portugal before moving to Germany.

    And to get a picture of Anneke,

    I have always enjoyed working with children and have been teaching them in my hometown for several years. My sisters and I are very close, and my experience babysitting them and others, as well as my internship in a school for people with disabilities has made me good with children. While attending school, I worked as a waitress, which helped me develop my outgoing personality and save enough money for this adventure.
    I am structured and organized, always striving to do my best and help people whenever I can.I like to learn languages and am passionate about using my skills to connect with others.

    We have gone on several adventures together since we started our relationship. the first year in our relationship we visited Prague, Denmark together with our familys and liked the idea of travelling. We complement each other very well in what we do. On the one hand Anneke really likes things to be organzied but Ben is very spontaneous. This combination has caused us to have the best trips. Once we just drove to the see and slept in our car,we really enjoyed that:)
    Now that we have finished school, we would love to visit more countries and meet new people. We love spending our time in nature, walking with our dogs or go swimming with our friends in summer. We enjoy cooking, listening to music, and learning about new things. Hardly a second passes in wich we dont laugh together or chat about stuff we like. We want to share our interests with you and hope you feel the same way.

    Ben's skills :

    While attending school, I worked multiple jobs and completed internships with several employers. For almost two years, I worked for an entertainment group that organized festivals, Oktoberfests, and much more. My jobs ranged from working as a server at a wine festival to being a steward at the Deichbrand Festival. Additionally, I have experience working as a mason. After graduating from school, I started at a local masonry company and worked as a mason for several weeks full-time. This work showed me that physical tasks have many positive aspects. I enjoy working outside and being pushed to my limits.

    Moreover, having frequently helped my father with various projects, I am capable of taking on tasks in the garden. Growing up with three older sisters has taught me a great deal about patience, cooperation, and effective communication. These experiences have made me very good at interacting with people and understanding their needs. I genuinely enjoy working with others and find great satisfaction in helping and supporting them in various tasks.


    Anneke's skills :

    I have been babysitting my little sisters at home as well as other kids in my hometown. To entertain my sisters, I always organized their birthday parties with lots of creative games and themes. Through my time teaching a young boy, I have gained experience in teaching children several subjects in a playful way. Additionally, I enjoy working and helping at home. Whenever there is something to do in the household or the garden, I try my best to help. I really like cooking and baking for my family, and working in the garden with my father. We have worked on several projects, such as building a garden house and a raised bed. I love organizing, planning, and sharing my ideas. Due to my time playing in a sports club, I have learned a lot about communication and collaboration skills that I like to share with others.
