Description

I am recently retired and want to travel again, meet new people and experience other cultures. I have many practical skills including cooking, cleaning and gardening. I have raised a family and enjoy looking after children. I enjoy the company of others, singing and conversation. I am friendly, hard-working and motivated. I want to use the workaway experience as an opportunity to give and grow.

It was great to have Martin around. He is wonderful company, a very good cook and a reliable worker with an eye for the things that have to be done. It has been a long time since our vegetable garden looked so good :-)
I especially liked our evening dinners and the conversations that came along with it. Comparing life in Australia and Germany for … read more

Alexa and Holger (and Willem the dog) were the most amazing hosts. From the moment I arrived, I was made to feel welcome as part of the family. The tasks I undertook were clearly communicated and there was no pressure to overwork - in fact Alexa encouraged me to take some breaks to visit Copenhagen and Sylt and I was generously transported to the … read more

Martin is a really helpful chap and is keen to be participate in family life. He's also a great cook which is a bonus. He sees household jobs that need to be done and just does them which is also a great quality to have. He's responsible, reliable and has great energy and is methodical too. Welcome back anytime. Thanks for coming to stay!

My 3 week experience with Louisa and Stuart on the farm was unforgettable. It’s such a beautiful part of France, I felt welcome from the minute I arrived - the food, the music and the conversation made it a relaxing and satisfying experience every single day. I enjoyed every task, from weeding the extensive gardens, planting vegetables, cooking … read more

Martin est resté 3 semaines chez nous et je ne peux que le remercier car il a vraiment hotté de mes épaules la gestion du quotidien de la maison. Martin est très autonome dans son travail ce qui est très reposant pour nous, il dit toujours , oui c’est bon je peux le faire » quoiqu’on lui demande. C'était comme être en vacances chez soi ! Très vite … read more

I spent 3 weeks with Béatrice and Marco and it was a truly wonderful experience. They welcomed me into their beautiful home like a family member and they were the most kind, considerate and generous hosts. I enjoyed working in the garden, cleaning the guest house and helping with cooking. Best of all was the time spent sharing meals, bicycle rides … read more

Martin was an absolute pleasure to host. He is positive, hardworking, helpful, and incredibly easy to communicate with. We truly enjoyed both working together and spending our free time with him.
He has the kind of stories you never get tired of listening to, and he brings a great energy wherever he goes. On top of that, he plays the guitar … read more

My experience at Remzi and Özge's farm was fantastic. Even though they were both busy with work commitments when I arrived, I was met at the railway station and provided with a warm welcome and food to see me through my first few days. The jobs that I was given were varied and not too hard - gardening, cleaning the bee hives, moving building … read more

Martin has looked after my property and the guests many times. He is 'Mr Hospitality.' He is an excellent cook and always makes sure everyone has plenty of food and drinks. He is great at cleaning, gardening and wood splitting and is a very kind and generous person.
