Description

Hi, my name is Daan. I am currently 39 years old and from the Netherlands.

As a young adult I've spent months and years working away at eco-farms and projects both in my home country and abroad (France, Italy).

After many years of city life, with only the occassional volunteering job at or visit to a farm, there has been a big change in my life. And I am again looking to spend the next months outdoors and traveling.

I am especially looking for projects where I can be of particular use with the skills that I have, where I can recharge the battery and connect with open-minded people. Based on my past experiences preferably an organic farm or countryside community, with a mix of activities among which building and construction work (because I would like to further develop my skills in that direction).

Preferably 4-5 hours a day so I have some time left to do some writing.

I am an independent guy. Old fashioned but open minded.

Also a bit alternative, studying traditional chinese medicin, alternative medecin and chi qong.

With a small but colorful circle of friends and acquaintances, mostly in and around Haarlem and Amsterdam.

And have worked many different (volunteering) jobs, mostly related to education, social work and agriculture
