Description
I'm Christina and I started in August 2022 my first big trip with the bicycle.
After crossing Germany, Luxemburg, France and Spain, I'm right now in Portugal.
Between my travel I would like to stay at some places for longer to help and learn/doing something new.
During my travel I'm staying at campgrounds, using Warmshowers/Couchsurfing, Airbnb and doing Workaway.

More details about your skills
I did an apprenticeship as management assistant in wholesale and foreign trade. After that I worked many years in the accounting department. During the last years and travels I tried different typs of jobs. I worked as a waitress, in a bakery, in a hostel and I did childcare when I was younger.
I really like cooking, baking, to be in the garden and to be surrounded by animals. I would say I`m really open minded of any kind of job.

I had 3 incredible weeks with David, his family and pets. The time was running fast during helping out with mainly gardening and maintenance. It´s easy to help with that beautiful surrounding and David is a really grateful person. It´s not easy to find words to describe David, he has such a big heart, easy to got along with and generous.

Hosting Christina for 3 weeks was an amazing experience!!
I had already read the great reviews Christina had from former hosts but her stay with us was honestly even better than we had imagined.

Christina was fantastic, probably my best yet. She not only did everything that I asked her to do, but to a very high standard. She also took good care of me, making breakfast, lunch and dinner, and so much more. My animals loved her too, especially my dog Cosmos who she took for long walks every day, and whole days out with her on her bicycle.… read more

Cristina was amazing. She handled our giant dogs Zuri and Yugen phenomenally and left the house tidier than before.
Thank you so much for staying here and we wish you to continue and have a great time on your travel.

Having Christina with us was a big pair of helping hands mainly to spend time with baby Anouk.
Christina was always ready to help, very friendly, and peaceful :)
In the garden or in the house we felt like she was part of the community already. We will miss you.
See you around! Good Travels

Christina is a luxury woman. He came to my house almost by chance and I discovered an incredible person, with a very open mind, a collaborator and always very willing. Honest. Very easy to live, share and work with her. Do you know when you find that sweet taste of having met someone that makes you believe again?
