Description
Hello there! My name is Heleen, and I am a 29 year old girl from the Netherlands. I've embarked on an exciting journey of self-discovery and adventure. After years in the corporate world, I decided to take a step back and focus on what truly brings me joy - exploring the world and immersing myself in different cultures, while helping other people.
I find immense happiness in being able to contribute to making our world a better place, even in small ways. Whether it's through lending a helping hand or sharing stories and ideas, I have a deep appreciation for the wonders of nature, from the serene beauty of the sea to the breathtaking views of mountain landscapes. And let's not forget about my love for delicious food – I'm always eager to savor the flavors of local cuisine and learn the art of traditional cooking. Even better, share the meals with (new) friends. It would be a pleasure to be part of the Workaway community and contribute to one of the amazing projects that are offered.Interests

What else ...
I'm an avid runner, especially running in natural surroundings fuels my spirit. Cooking is my creative outlet, and I delight in experimenting with a wide array of cuisines. In my spare time, I also enjoy contemplating creative concepts and working with my hands. Being around people is where I thrive, and I take immense pleasure in establishing new connections. I particularly relish interacting with individuals from diverse cultures, as it broadens my perspective. Additionally, I have a special affinity for spending quality time with children, as their curiosity and energy are truly infectious. Nature's beauty never fails to captivate me, and I eagerly embrace any opportunity to spend time outdoors, whether it's through running, hiking, or simply enjoying the serenity it offers.
