Description
Hi everyone! I'm a 24-year-old Dutch girl. I just finished my study in physical therapy but I realized I'm not ready to start "working life" yet. I want to explore new places, go on adventures, meet new people, be active (in nature), learn languages... and so on. I'm open-minded and I love to step out of my comfort zone!

My travel-plan: buy a campervan and explore places in Europe from May 2021 until July 2022. During this time I would also love to work on Workaway spots and meet people from other countries.

Janneke is such a great person and helper. Very happy to have had her as part of our team for the olive harvest. She is super nice and a great worker. Picking olives is physically demanding but Janneke did a great job and was always ready to start on time, and super helpful with other things like dishes and small household tasks. She is also very… read more

I’ve spent 2 weeks with Edyta, her daughters & their dog Bailey in Torrevieja. My tasks were walking with Bailey, doing general house chores like cleaning, laundry and preparing lunch. In the afternoon I spend some time with the kids doing homework, going outside or bring them to activities like football or music.

I had plenty of free time. Edyta… read more

I stayed with Hervé and his son Mathieu for one week in August 2021. Unfortunately only 1 week... I can highly recommend to spend some weeks/months here. Hervé always made sure I felt comfortable with the work that had to be done. Besides that, he's very flexible with the working hours. You can work for 5 hours straight or take as many breaks as… read more

Janneke ne pouvait rester à la maison qu'une seule semaine. C'est dommage car c'est une fille dont la personnalité est tout à fait adaptée au site Workaway.
Sérieuse et appliquée pendant les heures de travail, mais également après le travail, Janneke n'hésitait pas à demander si elle pouvait être utile et aider. Curieuse de tout, des visites, de… read more

I've stayed with Michiel & Claire for 1,5 week in June 2021. It was my first Workaway-experience and for me it couldn't be a better way to start. Staying with Michiel & Claire (and their lovely babygirl Fleur) didn't feel like working, it truly felt like a holiday with new friends. From the moment I arrived they made me feel at home. They would… read more

Hosting Janneke was for us a perfect experience. She arrived like WonderWoman in her white van and started working with us from the moment she arrived. Even though she arrived with other helpers already present, she immediately found her place in the group and gradually took a leading role, motivating the others to work when they were a bit down… read more
