Descrição
Hi there ,
I`m Conny , I live in the south of the Netherlands, near Maastricht. I`m a single mom of 57, 1 son (age 18) and 1 lovely cat My son will not accompany me , he will stay at his dad.
I already have experience with workaway and with working abroad.
One summer I worked on a French campsite , cleaning toilets, worked in the garden, helped tourists, attended bar services, made pizzas, and it was great fun.
And one summer I visited a beautiful spot in the UK where I worked in a garden from a castle and allthough we did a lot of the time just removing brambles and nettles and clearing up sheds and green houses , I loved it.
I also did some house sitting and worked in Wales 2019. For me workaway is the perfect way to visit places I've never been before and meeting interesting people and learn from them.

I like to make my hands dirty , feeling uplifted by working in nature. That`s why I love gardening .
At home I`m trying to create my own edible garden and I have my own allotment.

I would love to learn more about preserving foods and determing edibles in the wild.
I do not expect you to entertain me , I love to go for a walk (with a dog ??) on my own or just to read a nice book.
I´m looking for a quiet place far away from crowds , I love to hear just the sound of birds singing; I`m definitely NOT a city girl....

In daily life I work as a social worker, but I also have worked in the ICT and even as a professional child care taker, I'm always trying to learn new skills.
I don`t smoke nor drink alcohol.
I hope to hear from you ,and If you have any questions, please ask!!!!!!

It was really nice to have Conny among us. As she also speaks Dutch, she immediately became big friends with our 5-years old (now 6 years old!) daughter. Conny was playing boardgames with her and they had fun in the yoga swing, organised a gymnastics presentation for the public (our family), did storytelling, etc. This was really helpful during… read more

I stayed with this family for about 3 weeks during the christmas holidays. My main task was taking care of the animals. I also did some cleaning and played a lot with little Aylani, which for me didn't feel like work at all , we had so much fun together. This was my fifth workaway family and again was an amazing experience. Their house is so… read more

Conny was fabulously friendly and energetic. She really helped me over a difficult time moving house. She is super kind to animals and children and would be an asset to your home, always thinking of things to do to help. She is self sufficient and has a very calming presence. I can highly recommend her.

I spend a wonderfull 10 days in december with this family in Cornwall. The moment I arrived at the station they made me feel welcome. I helped Laura move from one place to Mousehole. I did some cleaning and unpacking, and I looked after the cottage and adorable cat Misty when Laura and her daughter went away. I had such an amazing time. You can… read more

I stayed with these folks for 3 weeks in August and had an amazing time. I already miss the peace and tranquility of the place . They have made their own little heaven in the woods. You can walk for miles and miles in the woods without coming accros other human beings, observing amazing trees, ferns and mosses. I worked in an outside the house ,… read more

Conny was a great workaway guest. She was friendly, kind, hard working and easy to have around. She did a super job tackling some enormous brambles in our orchard and made a big impact in the area she worked in. She was great and engaging with the children, and the dogs really enjoyed some extra walks. We would happily host Conny again.

I stayed with the family for 2 weeks in august and had a wonderfull time. There are a lot of projects to do but you can pick the project you like the most. Work was very rewarding not in the least by the lovely meals Jayne gave me. The kids are adorable and the dogs I loved to go walking with. Jayne was so nice to introduce me to friends and… read more
