Description
I'm a 43-year old woman who likes to be with her family (husband and two teenage sons), to learn new things and to go outside into nature. My hobbies are a.o. walking, yoga, floatfit. I also like seeing my friends for a chat, mountainbiking in the hills nearby and playing board games. I find it important to live sustainably.
I enjoyed my first workaway experience aug-sept 2025. Really nice experiences. Planning a family holiday to Norway in the summer. I might be interesting to include a week of workaway - by myself or with husband and sons (then 15 and 13). I would love to practice my Norwegian. Other family members do not speak Norwegian, but they do speak Dutch and English.

I was trained as a health scientist and worked in research for about 9 years. Then I decided to change careers and follow my heart. I have worked in the field of nature, environment and sustainability education for several years now.
