Description

I'm interested in flora and fauna and love to work and spend time in nature.
Although our environment has to deal with a lot of challenges these days, I'm optimistic and believe that we can change things if we take the right actions. I would like to be part of a project that stimulates the cradle to cradle principle and protects our nature.
I completed a economic study (Management Economics and Law) and worked nearly ten years fulltime behind a desk.
For 10 months I decided to switch and started fulltime in a garden centre. Now I'm all day outside between all kind of plants. Apart from taking care of de plants I love to advise our customers.
For more than 15 years I work voluntarily in a historical garden in my hometown.
I have more than 10 years experience as a receptionist in a wholesale and 6 months experience in the catering industry (brasserie). I already did several workaways in Spain and Ecuador.

This was really a cultural experience and beyond my expectations! I stayed for two weeks at the finca and from the moment I arrived I felt part of the family. The finca is located quite remote from the village, but you are surrounded by beautiful nature. You can witness a large variety of native animal species, like hummingbirds.
