  • Description

    Hello!

    We’re Néstor (from Spain), Fem (from Belgium), and our sweet dog Sam. Right now, we're living in Valencia and rebuilding our newly bought van — which we lovingly named Pierre — getting ready for our next adventure!

    I’m Fem,
    I’ve traveled and volunteered quite a lot over the years. I worked at surf camps in northern Spain and southern France, helped out on a farm in Portugal, volunteered in a hostel in Sri Lanka, and traveled through Central America and Asia. I did my yoga teacher training in India and have experience teaching yoga, babysitting, working in tourism, and I studied psychology. I love being outdoors — hiking, surfing, playing beach volleyball, dancing... and I’m always up for learning something new.

    Néstor is a firefighter and is preparing to start a hiking guide course in Madrid. He hasn’t had the chance to explore much outside of Spain yet, so he's excited to discover new places and cultures. He lives in the mountains and is always outside — he’s social, positive, sporty, and always up for a new challenge or adventure.

    And then there’s Sam — our lovely dog. He’s super sweet, social, and respectful with other dogs. He senses other dogs’ energy very well, adapts easily, and listens great. He’s playful but gentle — and when meeting another dog, he’ll often bow as a sign of friendliness.

    We speak Spanish and English (and I also speak Dutch).
    We’re open to all kinds of work and experiences — sharing knowledge, culture, and helping out wherever we can. Do you have a little space in your garden or on your land for Pierre, our van? In exchange, we’d love to offer our help, cook you a nice meal (I’m a good cook!), guide you on a mountain hike (Néstor’s specialty!), or give you a relaxing yoga class under the sun.

    Let us know — we’re open to everything and can’t wait to connect! 🌍✨




    ¡Hola!

    Somos Néstor (de España), Fem (de Bélgica) y nuestro perro Sam, un compañero muy dulce. Actualmente vivimos en Valencia y estamos transformando nuestra furgoneta recién comprada —a la que llamamos Pierre — ¡lista para nuevas aventuras!

    Yo soy Fem,
    Tengo bastante experiencia viajando y haciendo voluntariados. He trabajado en campamentos de surf en el norte de España y el sur de Francia, he ayudado en una granja en Portugal, he sido voluntaria en un hostel en Sri Lanka y he viajado por Centroamérica y Asia. Hice una formación como profesora de yoga en India y tengo experiencia dando clases, cuidando niños, trabajando en turismo y también he estudiado psicología. Me encantan las actividades al aire libre —hacer senderismo, surfear, jugar al vóley playa, bailar... ¡y siempre aprender cosas nuevas!

    Néstor es bombero y está preparando una formación en Madrid para ser guía de montaña. Aún no ha tenido la oportunidad de explorar mucho fuera de España, así que está muy ilusionado por conocer nuevos lugares y culturas. Vive en las montañas, así que pasa casi todo su tiempo en la naturaleza. Es muy sociable, positivo, deportista y le encanta cualquier tipo de aventura.

    Y luego está Sam — nuestro perrito encantador. Es muy dulce, sociable y respetuoso con otros perros. Tiene muy buen instinto, se adapta fácilmente y obedece muy bien. Es juguetón, pero tranquilo, y cuando conoce a otro perro suele hacer una pequeña reverencia como señal amistosa.

    Hablamos español e inglés (¡y yo también hablo neerlandés!).
    Estamos abiertos a todo tipo de trabajo y experiencias — compartir conocimientos, cultura, y ayudar donde se necesite. ¿Tienes un pequeño espacio en tu jardín o terreno para Pierre, nuestra furgo? A cambio, estaremos encantados de ayudar, cocinar una rica comida (¡se me da muy bien!), dar una clase de yoga al aire libre, o dejar que Néstor te guíe por la montaña.

    ¡Cuéntanos! Estamos abiertos a todo y con muchas ganas de compartir y conectar 🌍✨
