Description
Hola! Mi nombre es Vincent y soy de Holanda. Estoy viajando por Sudamérica desde hace tres meses. Tuve classes de español en Buenos Aires. Mí español no es muy bueno, pero quiero aprender.
I recently graduated in engineering and worked as a carpenter for six months before I decided to travel.
After spending three months in and around the mountains of Patagonia, Bolivia, and southern Peru, I’m looking forward to continuing my travels in the northern part of Peru and its Amazon. I’m searching for a Workaway experience in nature, where I can help with outdoor projects like gardening, maintenance, construction or animal care.
I’ve worked on a farm in France and have carpentry experience. My dream is to renovate my own old farmhouse one day. I’m easygoing and always positive. I enjoy meeting new people, learning about their culture, and sharing mine.
Looking forward to hear from you!
Vincent

More details about your skills
I enjoy working outside and using my hands. In my free time, I work on restoring my oldtimer car, hoping to get it running soon. I also have experience working on a farm in France, where I spent the mornings taking care of animals and the afternoons and evenings we mostly did maintenance around the farm.
I worked as a carpenter for six months, which learned me how to work with wood. When I return to the Netherlands, I would like to take a welding course to combine wood and steal in my future projects.
Furthermore, I studied for seven years to become an engineer, which gave me a technical background that I'm proud of!

The family is super friendly and you will feel home from the first moment. The work I did was mostly in the garden, but also some construction work in the house itself. They are very flexible with what you want to do… read more
