Description
Hi, my name is Jolien and I’m 27. I grew up in the Netherlands with a never-ending eager to visit other countries. I have studied photography for three years, after which I traveled to India to complete a 200hrs Hatha Yoga Teacher Training. Back at home, I continued giving classes in my university to students and at the local gym. Then I started the study Tourism Management, specialising in Health & Wellbeing. After these studies, I worked at a travel agency and at the front office in a hotel in Amsterdam.
Right now I am traveling for about 1.5 years and currently on a work & holiday visa in NZ with my boyfriend.
Interested in places that can help me develop new skills, feel good and connected, take some great photos, and help people out.

Even though it was calm, the location is very pleasant: just cacti, birds, sun, and tasks to do. We mainly worked on the comedor and kitchen, plus during the busy weekends more a focus on the camping itself.
