This summer we did our first work and travel project to Romania.Together with my colleague musician Jaap Mulder and his wife we crowd funded successfully
with the https://www.onepercentclub.com/en/
Friends who own a campsite in Romania and also worked for the Red Cross had some contacts for us.The list of participants for our art concerts on tour project was growing really fast. And before we knew it it was booked. But to be honest this looks like a magic trick but it took us a year to organise the trip, to crowd fund, to buy all the materials and drive up to Romania. Cause we still have our jobs here in the Netherlands.
The whole workshop tour was an amazing experience.https://vimeo.com/135887246
The way you are visiting the country is so different cause you cocreate
with the people from the country. You see so much more personal things from the inhabitants and the way they live.
This tasted like more and that is why beside the fact that we also work on different sides in the Netherlands and a van provides us with a driving home and office.

The van helps us to work slower and not rush from one place to the other.
But if it is possible take the opportunity to look around in the area were we work. Even if it is close by.
