  Description

  Hi,
  we are a family of 3. Tymen and myself are entrepreneurs building our company together. We split our time between our home in Breda, Netherlands and Cape Town, South Africa.
  
  We live in Breda about a 20 min bicycle ride (well in the Netherlands all is measured in bicycle drive minutes) right next to a beautiful forrest with a nice lake. We live in a renovated farm house with loads of space. Our friends refer to it as the ‘estate’ as we have a big garden.
  
  We are keen to meet you and can certainly use some help mainly in the garden.

  Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

  We are living on the border of one of the most iconic towns of the Netherlands. But hey, the Netherlands are small, so hop on the train and in an hour you are in Amsterdam. But being close to the Belgium border as well, you easily can visit beautiful Belgium cities such as Antwerp. But it is not all about the city. You will experience the Dutch landscape and having a stroll through the Mastbos forrest (just a few footsteps away from the house) will make you unwind.
  
  Breda is a multicultural city. It is the home to many international students due to several international schools. Breda organizes many cool events for any age group. Did you know that two of the biggest DJs were born in Breda?
  
  In general, in the south of the Netherlands prides itself to love food and drinks and enjoy life. It is a different part than the Amsterdam area which in the Netherlands is referred to as ‘below the rivers’. Breda is for example the centerpiece of the Carnival celebrations which is not celebrated ‘above the rivers’.
  
  Basically, there is loads to discover!

  We have a small side house that would be yours with a new bathroom, sitting area, fridge and microwave. The space is definitely suitable for traveling couples as well.
  
  We will provide breakfast, lunch every day, and some dinners per week but would love to test the volunteer's cooking skills for dinners as well!
