More details about your skills

Our mother tongue is Dutch, but we both speak a variety of languages. We are both fluent in English and Jade is a high school teacher in French and Spanish. Wietse is currently learning Spanish and looking to improve it during our adventure.

Jade is in love with languages and loves to improve and teach about them. She is very good with kids and has multiple years of experience teaching languages to kids aged 12 until 17. She likes to dance as well. She started ballet at the age of 5 and never stopped. At 21 she started dancing flamenco as well and recently we started dancing salsa together. We like to teach friends and family the basic steps and practice them later on the dancefloor.

Wietse is an app developer always looking for practical solutions for everyday problems, be it digital or physical. Worked with kids every sunday for five years as a volunteer. Good with computers, but also with humans :-). Always looking out for everyone and making compromises to keep everybody happy.

Since I was young, I liked to build stuff to facilitate mine and other peoples lifes. It started with marble tracks and moved to ingenious ways to open my curtains or switch off the light while in bed 😇. Now, I'm building mobile application for a hospital in Belgium that helps both care providers and patients.
