Description
Hello, I'm Oleksii, a smiley lad with the affinity for traveling and labor work. I have studied Geography in Ukraine, where I'm originally from, and management studies in the Netherlands. While studying I have occupied myself in social volunteering through scouting and student organizations like AIESEC by hosting or participating in foreign exchange (India). I like doing labor work on nature (thanks to my family) or customer oriented service (Amsterdam is a touristic place).
Hey there from Gabrielle. I am a social and relaxed lady who moved to Amsterdam from New York (home) 7 years ago. I moved to Europe to be closer to food culture that's based in tradition and history, a more relaxed way of life, and the accessibility to exploring the land. I have worked in the food + beverage sector in both management and creative roles. I grew up riding horses with my mother, hiking in the Adirondaks and working summers for my dad on the estate gardens he manages.
About us: we met in Amsterdam 5 years ago and reignited each other's passion for nature, hiking, and wandering. When holidays can be taken, we take to the mountains with our backpacks and sleeping bags. We love each other a lot and choose to live this life together.
We look forward to taking steps away from the city life that has served us well these past years, and head out further into the greater natural world.
