Descrição

Hi,

My name is Emiel, 30 years old, currently living in the countryside in Lichtenvoorde (the Netherlands). I grew up there as well with my parents, sisters and one brother. As a little boy I loved spending time in the nature, building small huts or climbing trees. I have a passion for animals and I grew up with many (dogs, rabbits, fish and more), I am from a age of 16 a volunteer for building flower floats each year (this is a event in Lichtenvoorde, (check photos)). I'm also a sport enthusiast (hiking, swimming, walking, cycling and play soccer) who loves to eat healty food and.. not surprisingly I also like to travel arround the world and meet new people so I can learn from them en have great experiences with each other!

I studied Animal and Behaviour and Carpentry. After a couple years of working in several industries and functions, the latest as a solar panel installer. I’ve decided to jump into a new adventure as a volunteer so I can learn new skills, live closer to nature and learn how to live a more sustainable lifestyle. And hopefully I can rediscovering myself in work and living so that I really know what I find most important and continue with that in my life.

Friends and family will describe me as a friendly giant, a honest person with a big heart for animals and people, a person who is always there for others and someone you can build on.

Thank you for reading this and I hope I can help you and have a nice time together! ☀️

I am open for learning the language in the place or land where I do my volunteerwork. Learning new languages can be hard for me but it is always nice and good for me to do it. And learning other people and certainly children Dutch is always fun!

Quais são suas habilidades?

I am educated as a zookeeper (I can take care for companion, zoo and farm animals). I am also educated for assistant carpenter (I am not a full learned carpenter, but I have two right hands and I learn very quickly).

At my voluntary work, I am a point of contact and supervisor for the people with whom I make a flower parade float together. I help and teach them to weld and form the float. I also work with wood, alternative material and often I work on the flower field where we grow dahlias. I do this with a lot of passion. It is one of the hobbies I do the most (see photos).

I have an affinity with people with disabilities (including children and the elderly). I have a lot of patience to teach people something and I am often the listening ear for people. I want to help them where I can. I have done several internships where I could work with these lovely people with disabilities and guide them during their daily activities at the care farm and petting zoo. I helped them with feeding the animals, taking care of them, chopping wood, being creative and a lot more. This is something that I really liked. Especially when you see a smile from a client and you have achieved or made something together. That gives a very nice and satisfied feeling. And that's what you do it for.

I am certainly open for many different activities. I am not averse to hard work. "D'ran" is a word that we use a lot in our region (Achterhoek in the Netherlands). It means we don't complain and we work hard for it.

I am always curious and excited to learn a lot of new things! ☀️

  I am eating lesser meat and fish. So eating only vegetarian is certainly fine. It is not necessary.
