Description

Hi:)
We're Job and Carmen, a couple from The Netherlands. We're looking for a place to stay for a while and learn more about sustainable agriculture and farming. We're always keen to meet new people, exchange stories and skills:)
Job is a furniture maker, loves to go bouldering, plays tennis, squash, or pretty much any sport with a ball involved and writes a poem from time to time.
Carmen loves to play beachvolleybal, sew her own clothing and play piano, sometimes accompanied by her own singing. She is studying Humanistics in Utrecht and has an energetic dog called Zia, a brown knee-height mix between a border collie and an Australian shepherd. We will include her somewhere in the photo's, it's not the white big thing you see in some photos. She comes along on some of our trips but not all.

We're looking for kind people in a kind place, where we can help around the house and garden and contribute to the surroundings. We love working outside and with animals. We care deeply about sustainability and circularity and would love to learn as much as we can about it!

Dietary-wise, we're both vegetarian.
