Our houses are fully equipped and include a free Wi-Fi connection and a washing machine. In the kitchen you can find pans, plates, glasses and cutlery, as well as a fridge, cooking stove and a microwave. For sanitary reasons, you will need to bring your own blanket and bedsheets. If you think that there is something missing in the accommodation, please contact our coordinators at [email protected].

All accommodations are within a reasonable distance to work. Our policy is to place our workers as close as possible to their workplace, depending on the possibilities. However, the Netherlands is a small and overcrowded country and it is not always possible to find an accommodation that is very close to your workplace. Most people, even the Dutch, travel to their workplace 30-50 km one way daily. Their roads, highways and public transport are very good which makes travelling very easy and comfortable.
