Descrição

Hi! My name is Nick and I'm from The Netherlands (based in Amsterdam). I'm 22 years old and currently on a gap year. On the 28th of March, I'm solo-travelling to Thailand for two months to start my backpack adventure. After that, I'm looking to extend my journey in another Asian country where I would like to stay on one location for a longer period of time to really get to know the (local) culture and the people that live there. Charity work is also something I'm already doing here in Amsterdam (see skills section), and I believe it would be great to do the same in a completely different part of the world!

What motivates me in life is overcoming challenges and fears, physical as well as mental. Therefore, I like to challenge myself in my work and am always looking for new adventures and ways to push myself. I'm eager to learn and like to set goals, so I can look forward to overcoming this goal.

Helping people and animals is something that brings me happiness in my life. I love cooking for my family and friends and helping other students with their work. I often try out new recipes. I enjoy living a balanced life, combining my student time with healthy food and sporting activities. I try to think about the nature in some ways too. For example, I don't eat meat products (except for fish once in a while) and I do most of my things on bike or with public transport.

I'm enjoying my student life as long as possible since I really like the freedom it brings me. Going for a drink during the week with my roommates or going are things that bring me much joy.

Quais são suas habilidades?

I've recently started doing charity work at the animal rescue ambulance service in Amsterdam, The Netherlands. This has taught me a lot about wild and domestic pets. I'm able to handle sick and hurt animals, as well as take care of them. I can stay calm under pressure when taking phone calls in the control room and am able to ask the right questions.

On december 1st, I finished my bachelors degree in Human Movement Sciences at the VU in Amsterdam, and am currently on a gap year. This has taught me how to do research into the human body and much more. I've also improved my English skills because most of the courses and books were in English.

I've been working in the employee restaurant at the hospital in Amsterdam (AMC) for one year now. Since I'm in direct contact with customers, my social skills and self-confidence have improved.

I'm a fast-learning who is always looking to learn new things. I'm a good listener and am able to adapt fast to new situations.

I love to socialize and get in contact with people from around the world, preferably through travel or volunteering. Parties and going for a drink are definitely my hobbies, but I also like to read a book at the pool on my days off.

Algo mais...

I like playing board games or card games in the evening when I'm with friends. I'm an active person and like to run 3 times per week. When I'm not running, I like to take walks or ride my bike. I also enjoy cooking for friends and family and enjoy the rest of the night with some drinks.
