Description

+++ Update: I’m not available any longer until September 2024.+++

Hello everybody, my name is David. I'd love to learn more about the world and would like to broaden my horizon while sharing my modest skills.
In my leisure time, I like to try new recipes in cooking and exploring Europe by bike.
Finished renovation of our property last year, now I travel again.
~the purpose of life is a life of purpose~

Quelles sont vos compétences ?

Though I work as an accountant for the local government now, I'm an old school tradesman by heart and soul and I like physical work.
I do all the maintenance on our property by myself, work with any kind of machinery and tools. So I know a bit about all the tasks and repairs that might occur regarding house maintenance. My motto is: “Nothing is impossible and anything goes.”

My experience:

1. Netherlands — house maintenance

2022-2023: weeding, seeding, pruning, mulching, cutting down lots of misplaced trees, chopping wood, raised garden bed construction, creation of a bee-friendly environment including a stone wall and a bee hostel, setting up a compost heap.

2021 Germany and Switzerland: reforestation projects

2020 Taiwan:
1. Hostel — housekeeping
2. Volunteer in Buddhist monastery — gardening, helping around the house

2018-2019 Australia:
1. Crop and sheep farms — sheep work, vaccinations, fencing, grain harvest, driving any kind of vehicle, chaser bin driver, pellet mill operator
2. Yoga retreat — gardening and kitchen hand for meal preparation

2009-2021: apprenticeship as a painter, afterwards carried out any imaginable task that you can encounter as a painter:
wallpapering, varnishing, creative techniques like f.i. wrapping technique, clay and gypsum plastering, sanding, painting, dry wall building, facades, repairs
