Beschreibung
Hi ! I'm Damiane, a mindful traveller who finds joy in meaningful work and authentic human connections. I'm very much into mindfulness, slow living and a healthy lifestyle, and I thrive in spaces where I can combine service with soulfulness.
I'm excited to contribute to any project welcoming my vibe, especially if we can share wellness practices, quiet moments in nature or stories and songs around a bonfire!

Was könntest du arbeiten?
15 years of global travel and humanitarian work taught me to adapt quickly, solve problems creatively and collaborate across cultures.
I am experienced in managing all kinds and sizes of field projects in challenging environments, but nowadays I'd much rather focus on simple tasks with no mental load, where I can practice and share my love for infusing mindfulness into daily life, whether it be gardening, cooking or anything else!
I also bring hands-on experience with home building/repairs and DIY projects, having fully renovated a few houses (and sailboats), though my back has "retired" from heavy lifting or manual labor.

I'm passionate about mindfulness oriented activities (yoga, ecstatic dance, mindful movement, self-massage, conscious walks, etc.) and would love sharing this lifestyle with others.

Was noch ...
I'm easily enthusiastic about any new activity. I don't care much about what I do, I care much more about how I do it and who I do it with ! I'm happiest surrounded by nature or singing and dancing and making music with others, or both :)

Vom Workawayer () für Host (Live and help in a mindful ...)

Stayed 2 months in fall 2025 and I enjoyed my time there, although I wish I had known a couple things beforehand.
You'll love it if:
-food matters. It is great, prepared professionally whenever the place hosts groups, plentiful, vegetarian, with lots of options, and all meals are covered. Also the kitchen is stocked with food and you can help… read more yourself to it or cook if desired. When no groups are booked, lunch is prepared by one of us on workdays, and for other days/meal you are on your own (with access to supplies and kitchen, never a need to go grocery shopping, which was so relaxing!)
- you're after silence, introspection, relaxing and nature. Social expectations should be minimum, as groups come and go and you are not a part of them ( no access to their activities), and local staff is on a 9 to 5 and then go home. There may or may not be other workawayers, but never more than one at a time in my case, which means you are often on your own. Nature is all around and there are bikes and kayaks you can use, with direct access to waterways, gorgeous and extensive bike paths, and a cute little forest with many trails, beautiful moss and a huge observation tower. Also great marshes to explore around, and lots of wildlife. Cities are 30 min away by bike/train.
- mental charge matters. Here the work is simple, easy to complete, repetitive, very clearly defined, and also not too much. Markus (the general manager) is very organized, nice and easy to communicate with. He aims for a 5 hours/day workload but in my experience it was often less. Depending on the time of the year the work may vary, for me it was mostly dishwashing, cleaning, helping in the kitchen and some yardwork.
- You speak German. I don't at all and it felt kind of isolating at times, especially during staff lunches (often the only moment of social interaction during work) where people mostly spoke German.
- you value intimacy. You get your own room, accomodations are comfortable and clean.
What I found most frustrating was to not be able to partake in all the cool group activities or use the practice rooms. I had access to a meditation room, but it was small (not adequate for my movement practices, or for multiple people) and also sometimes booked. Silence could also be a challenge over time, as many of the groups were silent retreats.
It was my first workaway experience and a lovely place to spend fall and recharge before continuing my journey.

(Sehr gut)
