Description
Hello dear community,
My name is Christine and I am 28 years old.
I am from Germany and live in Dresden, a city with a great historical background.
After I finished school I became a chef. But wanting to achieve some further education I went to a business school and studied hotel management.
Afterwards I have spent working for Marché Mövenpick, a swiss company present in many European countries as well as in Germany. After putting lots of effort and enthusiasm into the task of baking bread and preparing homemade food the natural way I was rewarded with the opportunity to supervise a team of about 12 members as their team leader.
It was a fun and challenging time but now again I am looking forward to gain new experiences and to widen my horizon even further.
Since I love traveling I try to do so as often as possible. For me, to be a traveler means getting in touch with the local people, to explore their culture and to experience the beautiful nature of a country. Thats why I usually choose the uneasy rather adventurous way of traveling.
Some of my most enjoyable trips were for example:
> Two times backpacking all over Cuba for a whole month using only old local trucks instead of tourist busses for transport, never knowing in which place we will eventually spend the night that day :-)
> A three weeks long motorcycle camping trip through the Western Balkans with my very best friend Severa as pillion passenger.
> A wonderful camping trip around Iceland for some weeks with three strangers. All of us only met online a couple of weeks before.
> Traveling Great Britain the whole winter 2016/17 only using Couchsurfing and Workaway.
> 2013 I stayed 4 months in Namibia. There I worked on a farm where I got the chance, besides hosting guest, to gain insight into local fieldwork and making cheese, which I greatly enjoyed.
Yet more hobbies of mine are mostly being outside, going for walks and hiking, riding my motorcycle and planning new trips to explore the country and the world.
I love reading books and I am very much interested to improve my command of Spanish as well as to achieve new skills in crafts or whatever exciting tasks there are to wait.
I am looking forward to meet you!

I had a wonderful stay for about four weeks with this lovely family and it was definitely a good choice to send an application to them.
Their little son is so cute and always happy. In my eyes he is a well-adjusted and an uncomplicated child and it would be hard not to fall in love with him.
