  • Description

    Hi there!

    We're a Dutch couple aged 44 and 49, Paul (a creative designer and website builder) and Ellen (a photographer and copywriter), both self-employed. We were lucky enough to tour Europe with our 21-year-old daughter (a chef and fond of vegetable gardening) and 18-year-old son (who just finished high school, is handy with computers and has catering experience). We've spent 4 wonderful months travelling through Scandinavia, Germany and Italy with our two motorhomes. Now we are slowly heading towards Portugal and we will see what else comes our way.

    We're on the lookout for some truly inspiring places where we can make a little contribution along the way, while also learning new things. In return, we'd love to find a lovely place to stay for at least a week where we can set up our campers and explore the area. So maybe you could use our expertise, help around the house and garden, in the kitchen or anything else you might need? We are open to all ideas, are handy (building/painting) and like to roll up our sleeves.

    We are really looking forward to making new memories together and meeting new people!
