  Description

  I am Ron, living alone on a beautiful piece of land, almost 2ha. The dream is to develop this area to a peaceful land with some accents of garden, tiny house, places to build wellness, experience with your hands and connecting to earth with your body. The dream is to create a relaxing, inspiring place where one can calm down, take a small pause from everyday life and enjoy being outside, working with your hands. Sometimes from home or on location. I am an early bird: I get up every day around 6 and go to bed around 9 pm, also in the weekends. Love catching the first sunrays of the day and start every morning with a cold bath.
  I'm hard hearing so it’s important that you coordinate your communication with me as I can understand you perfectly when I can lipread at the same time. I am very keen on teaching you all kinds of handymans work and the best way to do that is showing and doing it yourself! I believe communication won’t be a problem if you’re a positive easy-going kind of person.
  I do value my own private time, so normally in the evenings you would spend alone or with others WA-ers. On Sundays I also (try ;)) to have some free time that we spend together, sometimes we can go to a party or ecstatic dance for example. I’m living on a large piece of land that I’m still building up so it’s important that you’re tidy, if you lose something it’s really hard to find it back!

  Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre

  I am very handy, having learned so many things since I became father of a little boy. I can teach you so many things about building your own houses or many other things. I am a big fan of ecstatic dance. Sometimes I make a dance trip if you want.

  Aide

  I would need help with all sorts of things! Depending on your skills we'll have to figure out what works best. Building a tiny house, painting, carpenting (it would a plus if you have some experience!), gardening, making a green house, starting garden, keeping up the pool, building a chicken coop, helping with household chores, cooking.
  We have so much to do! I really want you to do something you have fun with and get energy from because we believe that keeps you going, but household chores are also necessary to keep a home nice and livable ;)
  We start early in the morning 07:30 sharp and work till 14:00 hr with two breaks in between.
  I would like workawayers who are willing to stay for a while. We always start with two weeks and from there on we see how its going and if we want to continue (for you and me)

  Hébergement

  We have several options such as caravans where you can sleep, depending on the availability. With the help of workawayers we've build an outside kitchen and bathroom. Water gets warmed by the sun. And there is a compost toilet.
  As we mentioned we get up early, 6:30 am, have breakfast early and we normally have dinner around 18pm, in the winter earlier, sometimes in the summer a bit later. You’re welcome to join us and if you have some recipes you would like to share with us, I would love that! We can eat vegan/vegetarian but sometimes do eat some fish or meat you can make your own specials.
  Here is WiFi connection around the house. Thank you

  Autres infos...

  Live in a beautiful piece of the Netherlands. It supposed to be the warmest spot in the country! (that gives a lot of other challenges ;)) The nature around is beautiful, when you leave the gate you can walk into a nature area and walk for hours. Train station is only 15 minutes from here and has good connection to Roermond or Amsterdam and we’re very close to Belgium and Germany. Have bike's you can use around here. And have a canoe and a small boat. Sometimes go sailing on Sundays.
  It's important to us that you feel comfortable being around but that we feel that as well.. I love open communication about that. On that note: if you're someone who likes to smoke weed/drink/ or use other drugs regularly we don't this. Thank you
