Description
Hi there,
my name is Kathrin and I´m back travelling in Ireland for a few months (again) :-)

I´m 31 and used to work at a Primary School creating after-school-programs.
I enjoy outdoor activities like running, cycling and hiking just as much as being creative.

I would love to find a situation that involves DIY, gardening and/or farm work :)

More details about your skills
I enjoy working with my hands - be it sewing clothes or painting/drawing. I´m mostly self-tought, and creating something makes me happy :-)
I enjoy leaning and applying practical skills - like fixing the basics on my bike or putting tiles in my parents´ bathroom (I'm definitely not a pro, hahaha). But I'm not shy to learn how to handle tools or to get my hands dirty. Just recently I found out, that I like working with tools on farm projects like building fences or hands-on with all kinds of animals, but especially cows :-D
I enjoy teaching children whatever I find interesting - wildlife, science, art. During my last job I learned just as much as the kids did, I'm sure.
I enjoy working in a team as much as I can be content working on my own. But exchanging knowledge and ideas is important to me and I find succesful problem solving very satisfying :-D

Please ask, if you want to know more :-)

I'm so glad I got the chance to stay with Sophie, Patrick and Juliette in December! I was new to the art/exhibition world, and it was exciting to be involved in the organization part of it all. We had lovely conversations, many good laughs and I loved meeting their family, Liza and the artists. They are a very caring and supportive family, always… read more

I had two wonderful weeks in November with Francesca, Giampaolo and Clara. Even though we communicated a lot with the google translate app (I don't speak Italien), we managed quite well. The work was not too difficult and I enjoyed that there was something different to do nearly every day. When the work was done they encouraged me to take part in… read more

Kathrin is the best! When I picked her up from her previous hosts they said, 'you've got a good one here' - and they couldn't have been more right. She's like a German Mary Poppins: she appears, makes sense out of the chaos (spick and span!), quickly becomes a member of the family, and then, just when you feel you can't live without her, she's… read more

What a wonderful time I had with Sarah, Bruce, their family and the animals! There is not a single aspect of my stay I would change or criticize (except maybe the waffel irons hahaha :-D ), and through their support, guidance and passion for everything self-made and I have learned so much more than "just" building a fence or taking one down. I… read more

My time with Marta was great! I enjoyed taking care of the animals and the house when she was gone, but more so the chats and banter we shared and the card games she (almost always) won - I'm sure she let me win our last game :-D. During my stay, she taught me a lot about mushrooms, permaculture and what goes into running her kind of farm. This is… read more

I had a really good time hosting Kathrin in my farm. She started from the very beginning to manage on her own the animals and help managing the farm and reminding me where my glasses where every time :P
She is able to organise efficently the task you will give her indipendently, I was sorry she left.
Thankyou Kathrin and good luck for your travel

I have stayed with Jenny and Karl for almost two months earlier this year, and I loved it!!! The tasks are varied and very manageable, and you always have great support from the dog crew, especially when gardening :D . If you love cows, or have an interest in getting to love them, this is the place to do so.
The whole atmosphere there is awesome,… read more

Kathrin is a joy! She’s funny, kind, organised, punctual and lovely to have around the place. She did gardening work, house and dog sitting, calf feeding, driving, anything needed on a varied farm. She’s completely dependable.! If she approaches you to volunteer, accept her if you can!!!

Val is an amazing, generous, funny and young-at-heart host and I have learned sooo much! She taught me a lot about "the horse life" and we talked a lot about life in general. I'm so greatful I had the opportunity to stay with her for almost two months in Spring. Her animals are all lovely, but cheeky sweethearts :-)
I had a great time at Vals… read more

Kathrin is an excellent worker. She is very efficient and thorough and very good with animals.

It was great for me that she already had experience with rescue horses so I didn't need to teach her much. She picked up my routine quickly and didn't need to be asked to do anything, she just got on with it. She doesn't need any supervision and I… read more

I loved the farm and the people that worked there and I consider coming back next year! So much passion and generosity for animals AND humans is just awesome! You will always have people around you that are there for you when things aren't going great, and you have people around you that are there when you need a good laugh!
