Description

Hi !
After having spent the last two and a half years working and traveling, I am now looking for a new adventure before resuming my studies next September.
I am looking for a new Workaway stay between mid-march and the beginning of may, ideally working with horses and animals again while learning/improving a language.

I am eager to learn new skills, languages, meet new people and discover new places!
I am a rather flexible and responsible person, and it is hard to find something I am not interested in.

I have a strong appeal for art and graphism as well : writing articles, designing logos and posters for events....

Otherwise, what I do not know I am eager to learn :)

More details about your skills

I have worked for two months during summer 2019 as a waitress, and I loved it. I really like working with the public. I was supposed to renew this job the following year, but then Covid kicked in.
All in all, I have learnt to work as part of a team as well as independantly and I enjoyed both.
If you ever need help with desktop tools or a website, I can help with that too.

In September/October 2021, I also have volunteered in hostels in Northern Ireland & in Scotland, doing housekeeping and reception.

I then went on for three months road-tripping around Ireland in December, working in ranches or simply staying in hostels.

In 2019, I also started learning to fly and passed my private pilot license in October 2020, meaning I can now fly small airplanes.
And from March to July 2022 I have worked in a maintenance workshop, learning the ropes of maintaining aircrafts.

Then in September 2022 I set off again to explore the United States. I worked as a wrangler in Oregon, Wyoming and Nebraska, tending to the horses and cattle.

In 2023 I had the opportunity to travel South Africa and do yet another Workaway on a farm in Mongolia, which had been my dream for a long time.

I then worked as a seasonal worker in the vineyards back home.

In addition to that, I have a lot of experience working with horses in general: I have been a horse rider for more than 15 years. I have some experience with natural horsemanship and would love to learn more. In my travels and back home I have worked with young and green horses, as well as rescues, so I am more than happy to adapt to each animal.
