Hi,
My name is Milou and I live in the Netherlands. I'm 28 years old and at the moment working as a coach for people with disabilities, originally I'm a social worker. My second job is as a waitress in a large restaurant.
The spring of 2016 was my fourth time workawaying in England/Ireland. I usually stay 2-3 months in one place so I can truely get to know a little piece of the life my hosts live. I've also done part of my study in Ireland (Cork), so speaking English won't be a problem.
It's 2020 now and I've almost lost count of the workaway trips I've been on. With 7/8 trips with 3 different hosts, I say I'm a true workawayer.
As for work experience here in the Netherlands.. I've had jobs ever since I was allowed to work, wich was from my 14th onward. From a pepper nursery to sheep farm, a restaurant to administrative work. None of them I've done for less than a year. I guess what I'm trying to say is that I don't mind working and I'm keen to learn new things.
I'm an experienced rider and love handling horses.
After buying my own house I've had quite the experience of fixing it up. I'm a good painter and decent in fixing broken stuff (from sowing to figuring out how to get machinery to work)
If you have any questions about me that you'd rather ask another host..? Feel free to contact them (you can find a link to their profile below).
