Description

Hello :)
My name is Heleen, I am 28 y/o and from The Netherlands
The past few years I finished my Associated Degree studies in Crossmedia Communication in Rotterdam, The Netherlands and I have been working full time as an Online marketeer for several companies.
After a while I decided to follow my heart and travel to New Zealand to learn everything about wine. I have now obtained my WSET-3 diploma and worked for 4 years fulltime in the wine industry.

I am looking forward to travel again and to learn new things, and also get out of my comfort zone.

A bit more about me:

- I am a very sportive person and especially into extreme sports! I love mountainbiking, skiing, skydiving, I also love to be in nature, I want to learn more about mindfulness and yoga.

- I am really into cars and motorcycles! I actually participated in go kart competitions when I was younger and I have obtained my motorbike and car license.

- I also love food and I would love to learn more about cooking! I can tell you everything about nice wine and food parings, but my cooking skills are not on the same level yet.

- I am very interested in wine it is absolutely one of my passions. I have obtained a WSET-3 diploma and for the last few years I worked as a wine specialist.

-I am looking forward to learn many new things and get out of my comfort zone.

If you are the perfect host for me, or if you know someone who is, then don't hesitate to send me a message
