Description
My name is Kirsten and I am borne in the great year of 1967 in Germany grown up in Austria and travelled many years worldwide because of my job in the automotive industry.
I lived in the UK East Europe and stayed in Pittsburgh Pensilvania for my MBA studies.
have moved to a 3-room apartment in Schwedt. Schwedt/Oder is located about 1-1.5 hours from Berlin, right on the Oder River and bordering Poland.
I need assistance with my two dogs. This includes walking them and feeding them when I'm away. The dogs can stay alone for 2-3 hours.

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
Schwedt is a very special area with interesting companys and people; cultural Exchange is very Important for this area 1,5h from Berlin away; several local and cultural Projects are a good Platform for People to integrate themselves; this area has perspective especially for People who Plan to Stay and work for longer time in Germany; in my Network of entrepreneur there are additional opportunities; to learn the Language and cultural characteristics while living and working in my Apartment is a good sarting point and basis for further development. I have a great network so I probably could support you if you need help.
When I have time I show you around.
Help
I need mainly help with my dogs but also Little cleaning of the House and take care about the garden. Ideally you walk the dogs in the morning and in the afternoon;
The Appartement is located in a small village Vierraden in the area of Schwedt with a bus station nearby (150meters) and in Schwedt the trainstation that connects you easily with Berlin Poland and the baltic des.
I am often traveling at the moment and work very hard, so you are very much on your own also with cooking and eating. I give you the money to buy your own food, I do not expect that you eat the same food as me.

Accommodation
A single room in the Apartment . We use the bathroom and kitchen in the Apartment.
Bus station is 190 Meters next to my house; over the weekend you need to call the „Rufbus“ 90 min in advance . You could also take my car to the train station in Schwedt with direct access to Berlin. So you are very flexible to visit other nice places like the baltic sea 1,5hour drive or Stettin.
What else ...
Values like natural food & cooking , living and communication with my dogs are two important basics of my life; this is the counter part to my Business life (entrepreneur) in the Steel branch; it helps me to relax and retrait; i like entertainment like local projects in art and music; working with young people findling out their uniqueness, my dogs help me a lot to strengten my emphaty in this aspect; it is a privilege for me to meet interesting people - the variety and the exchance with different people and different life styles enriches my life.
I try to live my life as best as I can in fulfilling my life vision. I believe in god, I am happy to know that there is someone who has good thoughts about me and loves me unconditionally.
