Description
Hi, I just finished my bachelor degree in architecture. I also have a degree in interior design.
I took this year to travel and learn some more practical skills mostly regarding construction work.

I love hiking and swimming in lakes. In the summer I usually go on a roadtrip with the van with my family.

I have already helped a couple renovate their house during 3 months and absolutely loved the process. I like to get my hands dirty and am interested in construction/DIY projects.

I also did 2 Workaways where I worked in a guesthouse/Hostel. In those places I learned to work Independed; managing reservations, help with DIY projects, and cleaning.

My dreamjob would be to create Tiny houses so I would be thrilled to get to know anyone with knowledge on that part.

Riet stayed with us for more than a month and was such a beautiful person, creative and harder working.
She was independent in the daily tasks and with a very good team spirit.
Do not miss her!!
Riet you will be welcome anytime here! A big hug for you!!!

I stayed here for 5 weeks, so I ended up even extending my month stay. I enjoyed meeting a lot of volunteers who became good friends. Because it was off season I was able to tackle some DIY projects like making a wooden bar and making curtains.
I also learned to do the Albanian dance from one of the hosts.

There are some people who have a lifelong right to come and stay here whenever they want, and Richie is at the top of that list.
Over three months she has put heart, body & soul into this project and been completely committed to every aspect of the work she's been involved in.
Besides that, she's probably just about the nicest person in the… read more

I wanted to stay for 1 month but accidentally stayed for 3 because I came to like them so much. This really grew to become my second home and they became like a family.
