Description

I am a kind, wholeharted, cheerful and calm person. I grew up in the countryside near the Austrian mountains and was raised to be grateful, respectful and help wherever I can. I'm a fast learner and not afraid of any work (unless it involves too many spiders) :-)

I've worked in office jobs since graduation, but now I want to get to know other cultures and lifestyles, learn about farm life and enjoy beautiful places.
I would love to work with animals, it has always been my dream since childhood, especially with horses!

I love tasty and healthy food and I'm happy to cook or be inspired by other people cooking.

I love to be outside in the nature, go hiking, running, swimming or other sports. But I also like quiet times to calm down, read, practice yoga, watch a sunset or sit together and talk or create something together. No matter if humans or animals, I like everyone to be happy and healthy and have a good time together!

More details about your skills

Whatever it is - I'm doing my very best and I'm learning fast!
I am dependable and accurate. I'm creative in solving problems or improving things.

I'm sure I can help a lot inside and around the house. Some things I figured out myself, like assembling cupboards or fixing small things in the house. I've also painted some walls and upcycled some stuff for garden decorations.
I'm good at cleaning and keeping things organized.
People seem to like the food I cook :-)
I've raised some veggies in the garden like tomatoes, salad, carrots...
Sometimes I helped my father chop wood, mow the lawn and shovel snow.

I enjoy to take care of animals and give them all my love.
I have always been an animal lover, but unfortunately I have only a little experience with my friend's cats, dogs and horses. I had been horseback riding every now and then, also on trails - unfortunately I never took proper riding lessons. Lately my friend taught me a bit of ground work with her horses. I was told to be a natural, and I would love to improve my skills with horses and also other animals and learn how to take care of them.

Age

31

What else ...

I have recently educated myself in mindfulness, relaxation training and mental training, as well as a bit of TCM (traditional chinese medicine). I'm still trying to integrate all I've learned into my daily life but it's more of a life long process :-)
In general I am a very calm and open minded person and I easily get along with everyone. I can't ignore if someone is not feeling well and I'm always happy to listen or help.
I love to sit together and share / listen to stories and talk about life lessons, but I also need some alone time once in a while to relax.
