Description
Hey dear host, I'm Maarten and with my family Joryl and Ravi (2 years old) I am chasing my dream to live a more sustainable lifestyle in the nature of Portugal. We left/sold everything back in the Netherlands to pursue this dream. At the moment we are traveling in our van. Living day by day, going to a lot of beautiful places, meet awesome people and just taking it slow. Back in the Netherlands I (Maarten) used to be a market gardner for 5 years. I had my own business where I was growing happy veggies for 250 people. Joryl used to be a kindergarden teacher for 10 years and she's really passionate about playing and experiencing life with (younger) kids.
We are looking forward to see more beautiful places in Portugal, learn new things and share our gifts with you. We have been traveling for a While now and cant wait to get our hands dirty and do some work. Let's connect!Interests
