  • Description

    Hello my name is Gijs and I like to learn and participate in creating a harmonious sustainable way of living. For me this regards the outside world; permaculture and community-life and the inside/personal world with fields of interst such as yoga, spirituality, personal growth into a healthy way of life in general. In the last past years I've learned that there much an overlap in these topics and that they can bring me such inspiration and good energy that I want to emerge myself more and more into it. Living in the city (Rotterdam-The Netherlands) though comes with it's challanges which makes integrating these interests in dayly life pretty difficult for me. Therefor I am now currently traveling through Europe to gain more knowledge, experience to learn to make this a permanent part of my personal dayly life. Besides that I love to make music, philsophise, cook, cater for people, listen and also to draw back at times to regain energy and be with my own thoughts.

  • More details about your skills

    I am good in manual labour, carpentry, design, cooking, planning, logistis, finding solutions for practical challanges en to bring and maintain a good vibe. I have worked most of my professional life in restaurants, in the kitchen and as a waiter, so I have social skills and practical skills. I have done a Permaculture Design Course last year and have some practical experience with that. Also I did a yoga teacher training/course two years ago so I know how to work with physical/spiritual/personal boundries, how to respect them and extend them if so is wanted. I work hard, rest hard and like to cater to the needs of everybody including myself.
