Description

We are Richard & Danielle and a full time traveling couple :)
Richard is an experienced traveler for already 8 years and Danielle for 1 year. We met in Sweden on a farm and after a successful WWOOF volunteer in Scotland (have a look at our photos for the WWOOF review :)) we are excited to go on new adventures together. What can you expect from us? A skilled carpenter with a lovely assistant ;)
Richard is an all round carpenter with many years of work experience. He loves to live close to the nature in a minimalistic way and interested in producing his own food.
He can adjust easy to new life situations and many people say that he always brings great energy and fun into projects. He is a serious worker who gives his all to the ongoing projects and determined to deliver good work.

Jobs Richard did in his life:
- Carpenter
- Interior Renovations
- Building Site Manager
- Technical Drawing
- Sales
- Google Adds Account Manager
- Riding Instructor
- Olive Farmer
- Farmwork
- Renovations of old Houses

The lovely assistant Danielle started her journey as a WorkAwayer in October 2024 to get out of the normal hustle & bustle and to take steps to live closer to nature. With a background in physiotherapy (bachelor, not working) and health sciences (master) she has a keen interest in a healthy lifestyle. She loves yoga, cooking and baking and because of her family roots she knows a good amount of Indonesian and Japanese (vegetarian) dishes to cook. Her traveling sparked an older interest in massaging which she now happily took up again and hopes to grow into a skilled massage therapist. She travels with her camera, ready to record all the beautiful moments during traveling and open to help with any kind of photography projects. She is a kind and enthusiastic worker who can help Richard with carpentry jobs when needed. But besides that she got through WorkAway a great amount of experience in gardening and farm work.
