Descrição
Originally, we are schoolteachers from the Netherlands. After having taught for many years, we were ready for something else, something new. We really like teaching, but we believe that there is so much more to explore. That’s why we travelled in our van all around Europe and a bit further from 2019 until 2022.
We then went back to the Netherlands for a few years, where our daughter Lune was born in March ‘24.

We enjoy living off the grid and in wide open spaces and we love to be in nature. On the other hand, we also like the ambiance of a city for a while.

We would love to help with renovating, gardening, cooking, teaching English, helping with animals, child care and lots more. We would like to obtain a lot more skills trough Workaway and therefore, we offer our services. We are both open minded, very social and we enjoy meeting new people from all over the world. We have both lived abroad before and know what it’s like to be away from home and our family. Hopefully, we will meet a lot of hosts and more workawayers along the way and make new friends to share our culture, thoughts and ideas with.

Algo mais...
We are both very active and enjoy sports such as running, cycling, skiing, snowboarding, swimming. We like to take long walks.
We have always been dreaming about living abroad and off the grid and can’t wait to find our own place to host travellers.

We both feel like Workaway is the best way to actually get to know a country, it’s culture and inhabitants. We would really like to be a part of it, instead of just passing by as visitors. And beside that, we would love to lend a helping hand in every way we can, to give something back as well.

Nienke and Tamara were a great help for us and very nice company. They covered a variety of tasks such as cleaning, cooking, baking, dog care, building, painting etc. We found it fascinating how quickly and smoothly they finished all their tasks. Both of them are highly motivated and after a few days almost all the tasks that we had talked about… read more

We only stayed at Patrick and Sarah's place for one week, but we easily could have stayed a lot longer. They have created a great place for workawayers and travelers in general. There are a lot of different project you can work on, depending on your interest. On the first day we talked about the jobs that we could do, so that we could do the work… read more

We had a great week with Bibi and her family and friends! Even though there wasn’t a lot of work, Bibi still welcomed us into her house. She even helped us out before we even met on WhatsApp!
From the first moment in Gostivar, it felt like we were staying as friends instead of staying as workawayers. Bibi, her friends and family were all so warm… read more

We had a wonderful week working on this farm. Although Yasin and his family were on vacation, they still offered to host us, which was really nice of them. The workers on the farm were all very friendly and helpful. Unfortunately, most of them don’t really speak English, but that was really the only downside! We loved feeding the calves everyday… read more

We stayed on Jochen’s farm for two weeks and helped with planting, seeding, weeding and harvesting. We enjoyed working on the land. It was possible to choose whatever we liked to do, so all Workawayers can work on things they enjoy doing. The view from the balcony, where we enjoyed our meals together, is amazing. We would definitely visit again if… read more

We have done many Workaways in the past, but this one is definitely like no other. Spending time with the dogs and the cats was really amazing; we loved the long walks, the cuddling and being outside a lot. Almost all the dogs are super sweet and many of them stay by your side when you go for a walk around the fields. Lena is a special woman, who… read more

Nienke and Tamara are very kind, funny and sociable girls, it is very pleasant to communicate with them. They are responsible and very well perform the tasks I gave them. They work hard, love animals very much and know how to take care of them — for me it is very important. Thank you very much for your help!

We stayed at the cafe for almost one month and had a great time! Emre has done a great job creating this place to help locals (mostly students) improve their English. He is a very sweet host, who even took us snowboarding one day! Don’t expect to spend much time with him though; he has a young baby and a fulltime job. He comes in often during cafe… read more

We had really nice experience with Nienke and Tamara. They were really friendly. They helped us for house cleaning, drop Defne off from school and picked her up too. Also they did more English practice with our child Defne. They were very hard-working and challenging. We went for a ride to the Taksim, Galata, Karaköy etc. And they seemed like our… read more

We had a great time here. All the workers are really nice and the project is very cool. They are creating a fun activity center and are doing a nice job at keeping the environment clean. We helped them finishing some hiking trails that lead up the mountain and in the area. We also picked up many cans and bottles for recycling. They were all left… read more

Staying with Andrej, Lasrisa and Minoush was ‘awesome-nice’ (an inside joke, you should ask them when you get there :-) ).
The drive up with the narrow windy roads and our campervan was a bit scary at first, but it’s totally doable. When we reached their beautiful house, they welcomed us with open arms. Very soon it just felt like we were visiting… read more
