  • Description

    Hello and welcome to my profile!
    I am a person who loves to travel, see the world and be healthy and mind-conscious.
    Back home in the Netherlands I was educated and worked as a social worker but after volunteering in Nepal for 5 months, the wide world and travel are calling to me.
    I also trained as a Life-coach, but I specialized in ADHD and ADD.
    However, after I got my certificates my itch to travel did not go away.
    So I traveled to Indonesia for 8 months(September 2018 - May 2019) to a deserted island helping to build a sustainable community and homeschool an 8 and 12-year-old, which was an amazing experience, here I also practiced raw food eating.
    After that, I traveled to New Zealand to help a kid with ADHD and do other odd jobs.
    Now I am have been doing workaway for the last few years.

    I am no carpenter but I know my way around most tools and helped renovate some houses for a few years so I can help renovate or help in building projects.
    Some things that people need to be aware of is that I do not follow any-one religion and I am also vegetarian, also I will come with my car, and I don't mind using it for odd jobs.
    Overall I am a very open-minded person and I am open to a lot of different lifestyles and experiences.

    If you want to know anything else, don't hesitate to ask!
