Description
Greetings!
I am Mikolaj, a 24-year-old with a passion for life and a thirst for knowledge. After completing my studies in management and marketing, I have been on a quest to improve myself and gain new experiences. I have a zest for cooking, nature, sports, IT, yoga, meditation, and am always open to trying new things.

I am participating in the Workaway program to travel, assist others, and learn more about the world. During my travels, I have had the privilege of working on several animal farms where I honed my skills in animal care and learned the importance of responsibility. I also had the opportunity to work in the hospitality industry in Germany where I gained valuable experience and insights.

My biggest priority in life is to experience all that I can, to push myself to grow, and to gain knowledge, memories, and personal growth. I lead a healthy lifestyle, free from any addictions, and strive to be a role model for others.

I am ready for my next adventure and eager to bring my positive energy and eagerness to learn to the table.

The best workawayer doesn’t exi……. until you meet Anita and Peter and their beautiful place near to the coast with big forest next to the house. What I can say, from the first day I was feeling there like in the home. They welcome me with kindness and warm, sometimes I was really thinking that they’re my family. Both of them are funny, positive… read more and always happy, from the first sight you can see that they’re love each other.
Let’s talk about food… Everything what, they prepared was a masterpiece and I enjoyed every dinner which makes me full and COMFORT. The salads with fruit were really amazing as well, for the first time I ate such a good combination. Anita was taking care of me and asking me all the time if there is anything that I need and if there is something special that I want to eat. Last night we went together to the restaurant for wonderful octopus(it was my first time).
Work there wasn’t hard, I still remember when I was asked if the job that I’m doing is okey for me because they want me to do something that I like. On my first days, I was weeding with Peter the garden and pruning, removing some of the plants from the yard, after that we started big project with replacing the stones
From the yard and it was really funny, i enjoyed every minute doing this and having good time with Peter there, after one week we’re masters of stones, we even decided to create our own company called “Brainstone”(you can guess who was brain and who stone).
I was living in big apartment with double bedroom, kitchen, toilet and big terrace upstairs. It was always a lot of space for me and I was feeling really comfy. When I arrived everything was arranged for me, Anita made it spotless.
In your free time you can play with the dogs, walk in the forest and next to the cliffs. You can also visit beautiful cities around the place, everything is close so there is no problem. There is a gym in the house and swimming pool(I was there only once because is still cold - 14 degrees).
I’ll remember this place for a long time and always keep my good memories in my heart. I can totally recommend this place as a perfect workaway. Anita and Peter are wonderfull as a host, people, friends, I could talk with them about anything. I hope there will more person like them. I’d love to stay there a little bit longer but I had to comeback to my country. Thank you for everything and see you soon.😊

Mikolaj stayed with me for 3 weeks and did an incredible amount of chores: sawing firewood, turning the compost and filling the raised bed with it, burning garden waste, clearing the pond and waterproofing it, clearing the shed, walking the dogs, pruning, and weeding lots of weeds. You could clearly tell that he came from the countryside and… read more

I really enjoy the time spent at this place. Helene is wonderful person, always smiling and with big sense of humour. She offered that she can bring me wherever I want on my free time and even when I didn’t now what to do, she was offering some ideas to make my time more attractive. The lunch that she prepared were delicious and I’ll never forget… read more
