Description

Greetings!

I'm a belgian guy, 33 years old and I grew up in a small rural village where everybody knows each other. Since I was a little boy i wanted to become an architect so with support from my family I became one. Gradually i developed a passion for small (off-grid) buildings that are built in a sustainable way and have a small footprint. I've put this interest into practive in 2018 by buying and converting a 7tonne truck and started travelling in the summer of 2020.
My base is in Belgium.

One of the main reasons for doing workaway besides the new experiences is doing physical labour.
I am working as a digital nomad for a belgian company so I am spending a lot of time behind a laptop.

I'm very easy going. There's almost no food I get offered I wouldn't eat, I like all animals and (although being an introvert) I'm good with people, from the very oldest to the very youngest. Mostly because I can be 6 years old again myself. I always like to get to know new people and places.
If you want to know more about me, feel free to ask!

What else ...

I have converted a 7ton truck in which i travel around. All is included (kitchen, hot shower, ..) except a toilet. The hosts don't have to be bothered with offering and cleaning a place to sleep. Of course i wouldn't be working and returning to my island, i'm interested in workaway for the experience and exchange.
