Description
Hi all!
We are Valeria (29) and Niklas (27), a couple from Germany. We have just finished our Master studies after working in Tech Management related jobs for a few years.
Now we use the time to travel, and would love to settle down at a workaway spot for the last 5-6 weeks of our journey. The time frame is roughly 15th January to end of February.
Valeria has been a workawayer almost 10 years ago, in Brazil, Argentina and Peru. She loved the experiences and remembers them to this day as her favourite travel memories. She speaks English and German fluently, as well as Spanish and Portuguese on a medium (B1/2) level.
Niklas is very active and has always loved manual tasks as in helping with gardening, home, construction work. He is into sports in his free time. He speaks German and English fluently.
We are happy to provide more info and are looking forward to supporting you!Interests

We have both have had student hospitality jobs and are open-minded, outgoing people. We are happy to help with guests, e.g. at the reception or in any other way.
We have management degrees, so anything related to organisation or stuff with excel, powerpoint :D we got you. We both have worked as product managers for website development, e.g. as the transparency portal for international foreign aid for the German government. Thus we have experience with UI/UX design, what web pages should look like and how they can be improved. We do not have any programming skills, but wouls be keen to work ourselves into WordPress or any other tools to build / enhance websites.
Both of us were lucky to be brought up in houses with gardens, so garden/ terrace work is not new to us. Same goes for home tasks like painting walls, repairing stuff, building with wood and doing DIY stuff generally. As we have jobs with computers, we are especially happy to do some manual labour.
Both of us are foodies, we love to cook and go out to eat. At home we mostly cook for ourselves, equally:)
Valeria has always interior design and would be happy to help design / build something. Niklas would love to help with gardening/ construction outside.Age
