Descripción

2024 update: Now we are three! In September 2023 little Amalafrida (amala) was born. Our plan for the summer of 2024 is to travel with our campervan to different projects around Germany in the hopes of figuring out which area we would like to live in. We are currently living in Leipzig, and while we love it here, we would like to move to a place where the earth is a little less flat and nature/hiking trails are a bit more accessible. We're looking forward to meeting lovely people and spending a good time together =]

Amala is currently (april) 6 months old, and she's generally a pretty chill baby. So far she loves other people (no stranger danger phase yet) and doesn't cry at night. This would be our first workaway experience with a baby, so I'm not sure how the workflow would go, but we would try our best to balance babycare and workaway help. We have our own campervan, and if we couldn't manage the hours of help that you are looking for we can also provide our own food. We are really just curious about different projects and communities, and we are easygoing about setting expectations.

Old description:

After finishing our university studies (Dama studied medicine (She's a doctor!!) and Fred studied International Studies/ Peace and Conflict research) we grabbed our backpacks and spent two years hitchhiking from Norway to Thailand. We workawayed (is that a word now?) in many places along the way, learned a ton of new skills and met many beautiful people doing it =] We kept hitchhiking around Europe and the US for a bit before buying an old rotten campervan in England. We spent a year completely taking it apart and building everything from scratch, while also traveling in it. Now we're mostly done with it and tired of moving around so much. We've been on the road for five years, so we feel like temporarily settling down, and chose Leipzig as our location. Dama would like to learn German and tattooing, and Fred works for a sustainability project online, so all he needs is enough time and internet access to be able to do it. We have our own accommodation in the form of our campervan, so all we really need is a parking spot, some water and electricity and a toilet somewhere not too far =]
