Helping in my restaurant

I had an amazing time at the host with Luuk. Heeg is a beautiful little town with plenty of nature to explore and enjoy. Public transport is easily accessible and Luuk has bikes to use for any adventures outside of Heeg. The job is similar to any other kitchen/serving job, and Luuk was happy to answer any questions I had and was always very helpful. I couldn't have asked for a better first volunteer experience, and definitely recommend it to anyone that is considering applying!

This was my first volunteering and it was perfect! Luuk is very kind, friendly and funny person and he is a really good chef. It was really good to work with him.The city is pretty small but its beautiful and the locals are very friendly and you can go to other cities with bus or train, or with bike. The job is very simple and fun I enjoyed every day. I met with amazing people and I so much fun. I may come back one day:))

I had a great experience volunteering at Luuk's restaurant. The work is very relaxed, the customers are very kind (they all speak English). The place is quiet, with lots of beautiful scenery and a small cove next to the restaurant. There is also a supermarket and shops that can be useful. I learnt a lot about Dutch culture and got to know some very interesting places. Luuk cooks very well, so you won't have any problems with the food. I recommend volunteering.

The host di the host my second volunteer. A really incredible place, I met a volunteer from Brazil Patricia who was a good adventure companion. Luuk is a good host and prepares delicious meal. The customers are very friendly. Heeg is a small but beautiful town where you can walk and feel peace. Luuk respects days off and working hours. I would come back as many times as possible. Thank you very much Luuk😊

I had an incredible time with Luuk and the other volunteer at the restaurant! The food is amazing, and the locals are really nice and welcoming. The restaurant is at a small village; there are really beautiful landscapes, and you can visit cities nearby on your free days. The tasks were easy; you have plenty of time to rest and practise your English. 🤗😊

My experience with this host was disappointing the listing on Worldpackers does not fully reflect the stay most things agreed upon on the listing like breakfast lunch, bikes, surfing were not provided and the internet there is unusable.There are a lot of rules u have to follow. I did not feel welcomed probably had one conversation with him throughout a week he seems to not really care about the people there. The listing was misleading and should be changed and I would not recommend this host to any future travellers.

We, me and the other Worldpackers were happy you left: strange, no teamplayer, and very wearsd to leave at 06.00 am, without saying anything. So at the end, you are happy to leave and I am happy you left!
Everybody satisfied and I surely don’t recommend you to another host!

I stayed for a month and as it was during the low season, the work was not overwhelming and everyone had they're task helping in the restaurant. Luuk prepares really delicious meals for us every dinner and heeg is a lovely village. You can get to the nearby towns by bus or renting a bike, as the village is very small there's no much to do, you can find supermarket, pharmacy and restaurants close though. I met lovely people there! Really good experience :)

This was my first volunteering experience and it couldn't have gone better. Heeg is a small but a lovely village. The work is straightforward and easy to learn. As the other volunteers have mentioned, the food that Luuk cooks for us is very good. Luuk has been a very good host. He is friendly and takes good care of the volunteers, while also giving us plenty of space to enjoy our days. He's also happy to pick you up from the station when you first arrive. My stay in Heeg was wonderful and I will always have fond memories of it. I would definitely recommend this experience!

A unique experience. Luuk is a very good man who always tries to help and teach you, and his meals are delicious. I have no complaints about anything; the village and its surroundings are very beautiful and perfect for disconnecting. Also, The girls I shared this experience with became friends. I highly recommend it—an amazing experience!
