  • Description

    After being an entrepreneur for 20 years I started traveling, as part of a sabbatical, and perhaps as part of a change of life style, and in that time I have developed myself as a 'Digital Nomad' (official e-Resident in Estonia now, but still Dutch Nationality and lived for a number of years in Spain). My main expertise is B&B's and Holiday Housing, but I guess small business in general. I have helped people, both via Workaway and through 'regular' business with their B&B's/Vacation rentals in Italy, Spain (Canary Islands, Costa Brava, Costa Blanca, Mallorca) and Scheveningen (Den Haag, The Netherlands), etc. In that role I became even a 'Superhost' on AirBnB and I have even acted as host for Workaway.
    I have practical knowledge on how to run the hospitality business, have extensive computer/online experience, but am also good with my hands when it comes down to anything like electricity, plumbing and building/construction in general.
    I'm very open minded, open to new experiences, flexibel, fast learner, broadly orientated and interested, but also have already a broad knowledge.
    I prefer warm weather (that is why I officially moved to Spain once...), so will mainly look in warm countries for interesting work/places.
    New skill: studied and learned during the Covid-'lockdown': real estate/interior/architecture photography

  • More details about your skills

    Although most of the work I have been doing was with my brains, I am very skilled with my hands, like for instance construction work. But cooking, computers, DJ-ing, etc. are skills I have too. Furthermore I'm good with dogs and cats (I like animals), and besides a driving-license for 29 years I also have a power-boat-license for power-boats up to 11 meters. Currently starting to learn more about (semi) professional photography.
    I'm very open minded, I love having interesting conversation over a good glass of wine, I'm eager to learn and experience, I'm fit, a fan of both nature and cities, and can adapt quickly to any situation and environment.
    Very experienced with start-ups, and 'start-overs', both business-wise as private (like moving to a new country).
