Description
Hello and thanks for viewing our profile!
We are an adventurous, hardworking couple based in Holland and the US who love to travel, meet wonderful people, and adventure all over the world. We love the combination of exploring new countries and cultures while contributing to the development of communities, companies, homesteads, farms, and the like. We absolutely love any chance to hang with animals and would be so pleased with the opportunity to work on projects and support big visions!
Neill has been traveling for the last 20 years visiting more than 125 countries. He has lead expeditions to the Arctic, Amazon, and deserts, as well as mountainous areas like the Andes and Himalayas. His favorite places are farms and ranches (this is when he met me, on a ranch in Argentina while I was voluntering as a horse riding guide). When he is in Holland, he works at a home-decoration company doing carpentry, flooring, decks, painting, etc. A recent project was a two-man build on a state-of-the-art camper van. In his spare time he enjoys working out, hiking, diving and cooking. He is very handy and definitely has a "can do" mentality.
I spent several years traveling to various parts of the world to ride and train horses. I love working with animals, on farms, planting gardens, and getting my hands dirty as often as possible. Before I got my masters degree, I managed restaurants where I developed skills in organization, staff and customer management, social media and expanding businesses. I worked as a fitness instructor for 8 years, and now, I'm a dietitian (nutritionist), working with clients around the world and loving any opportunity to cook, and talk about all things food.
We are both easygoing, open-minded, hard-working and love to learn new skills. And most of all, we are always excited for new experiences!Interests

Neill is an experienced carpenter, great at diy projects & manual labor, renovation, and can drive any vehicle in pretty much every setting. He also dabbles in night photography and has captured stunning starry skies across the globe.
I have worked with horses, some gardening, farming, social media, hospitality, fitness, and am a dietitian nutritionist with a license to counsel for medical nutrition therapy.
We both love cooking, animals and work with animals in a farm setting or at home, and any physical labor where we get to be outside. We are both PADI certified scuba divers (though Neill has WAY more experience in that field and some exciting stories to tell). We enjoy living small, and going with the flow. We're quick to learn, love challenges, and jump at the chance to learn new skills. Hopefully, between the two of us, we can cover all your bases, and we look forward to any chance to dive into a way of living we haven't experienced yet.Age
