Description

I'm a 65 yr old Dutchman. I'm looking for periods of time at hosts where I can find a fruitful rhythm between physical work and the spare time to get some research, study and writing done. I prefer periods in the range of 3 months, starting May 2024. Longer stays might be a possibility if mutually agreed.

I'm a relaxed and modest person. I will respect your privacy and property. I don't need (much) guidance or entertainment. It would not be just a vacation for me, it should be a fruitful period for me and at the same time helpful to you or your project.


The kind of activities I can help you with:

Painting
Carpentry
Gardening
Basic electricity construction (i'm not a licensed electrician)
Masonry
Tiling
Home decoration

My own art project
Walking (enjoying nature and landscape)
A good conversation from time to time
