Descripción
We are Roetje and Jannie, a couple from the Netherlands and both 39 years young. From October 2017 - April 2018 we spent half a year in the south and east of Africa. This was a wonderfull experience, but to short for us. So we decided to go on a new adventure. This time no end... We are starting our trip in December 2020. Again in Africa, because we just love the continent, people, nature and wildlife.
We are trying to find out how to spend the rest of our lives and are seeking for new opportunities to experience a different way of life than we are used to in the Netherlands. We are adventurous, easy going and like the simple things in life. We enjoy the outdoors and cannot wait to start this new adventure.

Que habilidades tienes?
Roetje grew up on a agricultural farm, cultivating leek and asparagus. He went on a working holiday twice. Once in Australia, mostly working on farms and once in Canada, working as frontdesk employee in a hotel in the Rocky mountains. In his professional life he worked in global logistics and heavy lifting business as a forwarding officer.
Jannie grew up on a pigfarm. In her teenage years she worked a lot in agribusiness, doing all kinds of harvasting jobs. In her professional life she worked in the party catering business, organizing all kinds of events. After that she was working as an executive secretary, with a wide span of tasks.
Both of us are hard working and keen to learn new skills. We are more allround than specialised in one particular job.

As of day 1 we felt at home @Lukasa. Harry and Geke are great hosts, very relaxed and good company. We did al kinds of jobs. All were nice and some were a challenge 😉. We enjoyed meeting the guests, help preparing meals and of course the ‘borrels’ and dinners together. Thank you both for the wonderfull time!

What a wonderful couple!

Social, hard working, skilled, friendly, etc. Whatever we asked them to do, they did it and more.
Building a wooden fence, hanging an incredible light feature, making bookshelves out of old canoes, painting, fixing a pool table, cooking Christmas dinner - they can do it all! Jannie can even do some welding ;-)

We stayed at the camp for a month and had a great time with Rupert, Silvia, H, the chickens and the cats. We really enjoyed their hospitality and company. The cooking together and sitting around the campfire at night was a lot of fun. Also workwise we liked it a lot. We repainted the signs, made some new pavers, build a glassbottle and cement… read more

Jannie & Roetje (aka Rudie) were our first volunteers that we hosted and have left huge footsteps behind. We already miss their stay with us and all their help and energy they put into 24 projects within 10 days. My hubby was working away from home and farm projects were lagging behind. To name but a few projects they assisted with : gardening /… read more

We stayed 2 weeks at this wonderful place. We had our own cottage, which was lovely. The owners, Rob and Lynnie and their son Lyle were great hosts and we felt very comfortable at Evergreen. Lynnie is a great cook, every night had supper together. We spend the nights either around the fire, watching a movie or in the bar, which was great fun. We… read more

We stayed 3 weeks with Kathy and Zak and we had a fantastic time. We felt very welcome in to their lives . We did all kinds of jobs which we really enjoyed. The 4 dogs were also great company. We also met a lot of local people. We would love to come back one day. Thank you so much for having us.

Jannie & Roetje, were an absolute pleasure to have and they became family. No task was too big for them and they went over and above what was expected of them. A truly amazing couple we would take them back any day. We wish them all the best for their future ventures.

We stayed 10 days with Ross and Kath and it was a wonderful experience. We absolutely loved the scenery. A permaculture veggiegarden was a new expierence for us, very interessting and educational. We helped out in the community garden. What a great achievement is made there within a year. We hope that they can also become self sufficient one day.… read more

We stayed at this place for 5 weeks and we had a fantastic time. Sam and Colin took us everywhere like local braais, Gariepdam and the Sunday River. We spend a lot of time in the bar where we met a lot of local people from 'the valley'. We met some interesting people and had a lot of fun with everyone :-). Other than that we also worked. We mostly… read more

Jannie and Roet are great people. They are hard working, great to chat with and always in for new experiences. No work was to much trouble, hours was not an issue and always a smile. Good luck on your journey. I hope we meet up soon.
I would strongly recommend this couple for any tasks.
