Description
I am a woman of 34, living in a beautiful place in the countryside on the border with Belgium/the Nethetlands. I own 2 acres. My 5 horses , 2 cats , dog , sheep, ducks and chickens accompany me. It is an old farmhouse that needs to be restored. I want to live as self-sufficient as possible. There are several fruit trees, berry bushes and a vegetable garden that I want to expand further.
I would like to get to know you and your culture better, join you whenever possible to exchange stories. If you can teach me languages that would be very welcome. I like art and music, I’m an amateur painter and I’m learning to play the guitar. I believe in de power of nature and plant medicines. I am a vegetarian, love to cook but also love to discover new dishes from around the world. I like to travel, but since I started this project, there is little room for it. Bringing the travelers to me is a nice and educational alternative.

Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre
I don’t have any outstanding skills to teach you but maybe some of the many other little things that make someone unique can leave a mark on you.
Bring in your own passion and skills and teach it or share it with me. I bought this place last year, all plans and ideas are mostly still in my head and are not fully worked out yet.So I’m open to good input if it matches or make my plans better.
