Travel information

Description

Well traveled, honest, helpful Belgian. Can speak 4 languages and can work alone or in a team. I get along well with people of all ages from around the world, love nature and don't mind being isolated.
Expert in adapting to my surroundings.

I have an inquisitive mind, eager to learn and acquire new knowledge and skills.
You will find me easy to talk to about a variety of topics. I am a fit and strong person who is conscious about food, body and mind.
I have a broad view of the world and life, traveled extensively and lived in Belgium, South Africa and Australia.
I love to travel, explore new cultures and meet the local people.

Together with a friend I have been a Host myself.
Living off-grid in a private nature reserve in Mpumalanga South Africa, where we organise retreats and have a self sustainable project. Our profile is also on workaway. It's time for me to take a long break and connect with other hosts and volunteers as a volunteer.

Kind Regards
Vincent
