Description
Hi! My name is Chris and I'm from the Netherlands.

I'm friendly, open, curious, honest, creative.

I'm willing to take on any task and will strive to carry it out to the best of my ability.

I spent the first months of 2021 at a folk high school in Norway. I got to experience outdoor life in incredible nature. After that I did several Workaways in Norway, Sweden and Denmark. In 2022 I lived in Molde, Norway. I worked as a waiter, caretaker and taxi driver. It was exciting to learn these new skills.

I spent the biggest chunk of 2023 travelling Spain and Morocco, doing a couple of Workaways combined with backpacking. Leaving Europe for the first time made me eager to explore the rest of the world, too.

It is my plan to spend the remainder of 2024 in Asia, arriving to New Zealand on a working holiday visa before the end of the year.

Before my travels, I studied Communication and Multimedia Design. I then lived and worked in Germany for a year. It is my goal to build and live in a tiny house for a tall person. If inbetween my trips I should find time and governmental permission, of course.

I had a great time at Tina and Alan's place. I was lucky to be given the opportunity to work on the exciting project of building an oven. This was the perfect challenge for me. Tina and Alan gave me full trust in my ability to complete the task and helped out when needed.

Christ stayed with us for 4 weeks. It is very friendly, honest and trusting, we had a good feeling to have him with us. He built a wood stove out of natural stone. We had nice evenings together and meals together, as well as very pleasant conversations. We would be happy if he comes back. He is always welcome.

Leyilah is a very kind, warm and welcoming person. I enjoyed spending time together.

When it comes to the work, there's a lot of freedom in what to do. I mostly worked in the garden, which I enjoy a lot. I did struggle a bit with the indirect communication and sometimes not knowing what to do.

In my free time I got to borrow a bike so I could… read more

Chris is really pleasant to be around, and he's very helpful. Chris helped a lot in our garden, he didn't need instructions on what to do, and he was gentle and efficient in the garden, which was much appreciated.
Chris is really good at talking Norwegian and turning it into understandable Danish.
Chris helped us bake Xmas cookies and it was nice… read more

My stay at Eric and Eva's place was amazing! I was only there for a good week, but we had a great connection.

I joined Eric with chopping and transporting trees. We worked in unison and I learned a lot.

Eric is good at talking, so I feel like we discussed nearly everything in the universe during my stay.

In my free time I did nice hikes in… read more

I had an amazing time at Jochen and Michaela's place for one month this summer. I took care of their place when they were gone for vacation. During the time we were together, I mostly helped in taking care of the garden and running errands.

I got a lot of free time to explore the islands and also got introduced to many of Jochen and Michaela's… read more

Thank you for coming to us. You fit in perfectly with what we needed help with. You cut a lot of grass, painted a lot of things, weeded, helped make firewood and did several other tasks.
You performed all the tasks in a very good way. You were gentle and nice to be with, and even spoke fluent Norwegian.
Welcome back to us whenever you want.

I stayed with Marit and Torgeir for four weeks, and I loved it. Soon after I arrived, it felt like home. I did painting and garden work. The area is nice for hiking.
