Description

Hey,

I’m Stijn from Belgium.
I’m very positive in life and always motivated to help and learn things.
I’m very adventurous and have made many trips far away.
I have been living in my own house for 12 years so doing the housekeeping is not a problem for me.
I also cooked a lot of basics in the meantime. Everyone loves my scampi’s diabolique, pancakes and rice pudding. Hopefully you will too ... 😉
I’m very social and adapt quickly to other people and places.
I have a lot of patience and I’m good with children. I’m already 2 times uncle of my brothers children.
I’ve been working at Volvo trucks for 22 years. As a secondary profession I worked for 10 years in a discotheque as a bartender and waiter. I also worked as a plasterer for 3 years.
In combination with these jobs, I helped to completely rebuild my house and the house of my 2 brothers. With the help of a friend , I also created my own garden.
At school I obtained my A2 diploma in commerce.
With evening school I obtained a diploma for placement of gyproc and plasterer.
So I have gained a lot of experience in my own country. I look forward to gaining even mooore knowledge, and why not abroad? That makes the experience much bigger and more intense. Maybe I’ll visit you sometime, I‘m looking forward to it ... 😉 I've already had some great experiences thanks to Workaway. it's given me a lot of new insights, and that's why I want to gain even more experience during a sabbatical year at the end of 2026 and in 2027.

The older I get
the more I understand
that it’s okay to live
a life others don’t understand.

.....

The older I get
The more I realize I just
need the simple things in life.

.....

The older I get
the more I realize what
really matters in life.

.....

The older I get
the more I realize
the importance of walking away
from people and situations which
threaten my peace of mind,
Self respect, values and self worth.

“Karen Salmansohn”

Follow your bliss
and the universe will
open doors where there
were only walls.

“Joseph Campbell”
