Description

Hi there! We’re Joost and Mayte and we’re thrilled to be starting an exciting new chapter in our lives!

We finally made our dream come true – we bought a camper van to travel through Europe! To make this dream a reality, we’ve been living on campsites for years (renting out our house to save more), and now we’re happily living together in our camper on just 6 square meters – no problem at all!

We make a great team. Together we’ve tackled many challenges and always find a solution, no matter how difficult or tricky the situation. This teamwork and problem-solving attitude is something we bring to every project we take on.

We're love to volunteer in various locations – to meet new people, gain fresh experiences, and learn new skills that will help shape our next chapter!

We’re open-minded, hardworking, and eager to contribute wherever we can. Whether it’s helping with projects we’re experienced in or learning something completely new, we’re ready to roll up our sleeves and dive in.

We are looking forward to contributing to your project and hopefully sharing some good conversations and laughs along the way!
