  • Description

    Hi! We are Karl and Emma! We're a married couple from New Zealand on a working holiday visa in the Netherlands. I (Karl) am 30 years old and my wife Emma is 28.

    I worked in the landscaping industry all through my 20s in NZ, starting in gardening work before moving into construction based work where I worked on a variety of residential and commercial projects.
    Emma has a background in marketing and graphic design, so she's got a great eye for detail and loves diving into all things creative.

    We are looking for an opportunity to experience life in The Netherlands and throughout Europe, and learn more about different countries and cultures, and meet some new people on our journey.

  • More details about your skills

    (Karl)
    I'm a skilled landscaper, having been in the industry for 10 years in NZ. I began with garden maintenance work for several years before moving towards construction where I completed my landscape apprenticeship.

    My skills include all forms of outdoor construction including working with timber, concrete, paving, blockwork and a variety of garden work as well.

    I enjoy having a hands on task to keep me busy!

    (Emma)
    I ran the marketing team for a property company and also designed a large amount of their collateral and managed website design and social media accounts.
    Before working in marketing I worked as a Legal Administrator where I managed their trust account and day to day administration.
    I enjoy working on anything creative whether it is digital or practical. I love cooking and organising spaces.
