Description
Hello :)

My name is Leny, I'm 33 years old and I am from the Netherlands. I grew up in the countryside on a small Dutch dairyfarm. Later I lived for years in the city to studie social work. 4 years ago I discovered workaway and I had some real nice experiences being a volunteer in Spain. Back home I decided I wanted to do something in return, so I became a workaway host, what also has been a great experience.

Right now I would like to visit another country and offer some help. What's inportant to me is to open my eyes and see the world, but also to develop myself. I would love to improve my language skills and I look forward to meet new people and to gain new experiences.

Fantastic!! Having Leny at home was not only a great help, but a very good company. She is strong, determined, very hard worker, responsible, sensitive, has a lot of initiative, and would find things to do without even telling her. She worked with the donkeys and horse, with the dogs, taking care of the plants, the garden, cleaning the house, and… read more

Staying with Veronica was by far my best workaway experience so far.

Leny it’s a wonderful worker, she helped me a lot when I really needed help. My catsitter didn’t show up in the day of my trip which made me change all my schedule of a trip that I was planning for months.
