Description

Hello, my name is Josefien. I am a 24 year old woman living in the Netherlands. In my free time I enjoy a good book, working on creative projects, organising my home, cuddling our cat, doing yoga, cooking, baking, sewing, dancing and singing.

Currently I am studying to become a professional organizer, and hope to help people in this way to live a life free of clutter, to make more time for their aspirations and dreams.

Things I care about deeply in my life are: connecting with the earth and respecting nature, being healthy and sharing time with family and friends, sustainable living in every aspect, contributing to the world by being creative and building a healthy strong foundation for future generations. Also being happy and doing fun things!

I am looking to expand my horizons and learn about different cultures. My interest goes out to Scandinavia, mostly because of the wide free nature.

More details about your skills

Experience: In my family I cook all the meals and also regularly like to bake pies, we buy organic produce from the local farmers and like to use mostly pure ingredients. I have a tiny bit of experience growing food and herbs in the garden at home. I have a little knowledge of the properties of herbs, because I worked in a salon for natural hair care and dye using only herbs.
During the course of my life I studied to become a woodworker for around six months, so I have basic knowledge about woodworking and how to use some industrial tools. I would consider myself a beginner still in this area. And as sewing is one of my hobbies, this could also be one of my skills, though I would not exaggerate, because I have only started recently. Also worth mentioning might be painting, this is something I learnt early as my father was a professional painter (of houses) for most of his life.
