Description

hey there!
I graduated from German high school in summer 2022 and went to travel with workaway in France & Sweden afterwards. I absolutely love nature & animals as I grew up in a tiny village in Germany and I would definitely love to improve my handcraft skills.
Currently I live in Bordeaux, France, but I would love to continue exploring the world via workaway every chance I get :) At the moment especially for improving my French!
But I'm definitely open to learn any other new language :)
All in all I'm open to new things, hope to be there to work with/for you and support you and I'm very keen on growing by experiencing and exchanging!

My Workaway experiences so far:
France (1 week): Helping around the house, walking the dog, gardening
Sweden (7 weeks): Help on a campsite: Cleaning&preparing cottages, cleaning service facilities, help in the kitchen, small gardening work
Sweden (3 weeks): Little carpentry/maintenance projects, dogcare, helping an NGO with organization of Erasmus+ project

More details about my language interests
I am always motivated to learn any new language and of course expand the knowledge of languages I already do speak! It's a huge passion of mine and in my opinion necessary to fully open up for new cultures.

More details about your skills

I would consider myself able to handle stressful situations and remain polite and kind to others at the same time and also am prepared to get physically engaged in any way possible, for example I worked as a horse stall cleaner for quite some time. Anything service and cleaning wise is also absolutely nothing new for me.
I grew up in a small village between farms and woods, so I don't really hesitate when having to clean up or take action outside. Basic gardening skills are no problem for me either, so I'd love to take care of your garden and/or animals :)
Generally I am always wanting to improve already existing or learn new (e.g. carpentry and more handy) skills!

Age

What else ...

I love to ride my bike any time of the year to get deeper into nature, so if you have bikes I'd love if I was allowed to use them!
When I'm stressed I like to calm myself with doing puzzles and yoga, so eventually these two activities became regular hobbies of mine.
Additionally I am a huge coffee lover, so I'd love to sit down for a fika and chat a little!
