Description
I’m a 19 year old student from the Netherlands. I live with my parents, brother and two cats in a small picturesque village in the east of the country.

I’m an aspiring English teacher and a creative soul. I follow an English teacher course at Windesheim University of Applied Science. Besides that I work as a homework coach. I am looking for a place to stay in the UK somewhere between September and November as part of my curriculum.

In my free time I love doing theatre and film, taking care of animals, reading, any creative work, meditating, playing the guitar, going to the gym and horseriding.

Quelles sont vos compétences ?
I am currently following a course to become an English teacher and have been teaching in the shape of an internship. I love teaching and working with kids. I mainly teach 12-16 year olds, but I also enjoy working with younger kids.

I love animals and have two cats myself. I am an enthusiastic horse rider and have been dog sitting multiple times with both big and smaller dogs. I am comfortable with handling animals.

I have experience with cleaning, organising, cooking and basic DIY projects

I am a very creative person and my main set of skills contains acting, writing, painting , storytelling and much more.

I would describe myself as a hard worker, a quick learner and an easy going person. I speak English and Dutch fluently and have a driver’s license.

Laissé par le workawayer () pour l'hôte (Join a young family in rural ...)

I had such a lovely experience staying with the family. They are incredibly welcoming and kind.
Rachel and John have grown to be my Irish parents even though I only stayed for one month. I felt at home straight away. I loved doing the tasks on the farm, especially feeding lambs, walking Vince, driving the quad bike and the teleporter and joking… read more around with John (mainly making fun of each other and chasing sheep together). Thanks to him I even got to deliver a lamb, which is definitely a once in a lifetime experience. He's super thoughtful, relaxed and has a lot of cheeky remarks.

None of the work was too difficult or hard. I learned a lot about farm work, despite the fact I come from a farm myself. I loved being surrounded by sweet animals, the cat Zeus is the silliest ginger cat ever and the dog Vince is an absolute sweetheart. It's been really calming for my mind and body to be out in nature with animals, I would recommend it to anyone. Rachel's presence is honestly so comforting, and she was truly my closest friend in Ireland. She's an amazing cook (her stew is the best I've ever had) and she knows a LOT. We talked lots and lots and not a single topic was off the chart with her, so I got to learn lots from her. She's very funny and super open as well. We had a great connection and I miss her loads already ;)

The kids are really funny and have made me laugh numerous times. Tessa and Erika have a lot of silly jokes together, as do Cormac and Sarah. The latter are super chaotic together (we compared them to Crash and Eddie from Ice Age) but also really sweet. I highly recommend baking with Erika and drawing with Sarah, both have been really relaxing. Tessa has a terrific talent for music and sports. Cormac is super smart and passionate about the farm, we've done some tasks together as well. All kids are absolute sweet hearts and so unique in their own way.

Overall, I'd 100% recommend this Workaway family. Although Sligo may be a bit far off the tracks, it also has its perks and the family definitely makes up for it. I had a great bedroom with a nice bed, access to plenty of delicious food and the family was super relaxed, making it feel like a holiday. They didn't mind driving me or bringing in groceries for me etc. I would love to visit them again some time. If you get the chance to visit them, I definitely would :)

(Excellent)
