  • Description

    Hi there! I’m Martin from the Netherlands: a handyman with a positive attitude. I was born and raised right on the coast, well below sea level. My professional job (airline front desk hospitality and logistics) took me to many places in the world. I am still curious about people, cultures and habits, wondering who you are and why you do as you do😀? It is not always necessary to travel far for adventure and new experiences!
    I am interested in learning about permaculture, re-use and recycle, the making of dry stack stone walls, eco toilets, solar power, water preservation etcetera…
    In return, my contribution will be to help your sustainable project move forward. I am experienced in hospitality, gardening, forestry, building, DIY and 1001 small jobs in/around the house. I’m easy to get along with.
    I do not like to sit on my hands and I feel fit to work hard.
    I like laughing, storytelling, asking questions and launch a crazy idea every now and then. I like sunshine and rain, the silence of a forest, the shriek of a gull on the beach and many other things that make life so precious.
