Was könntest du arbeiten?
During high school, I worked as a dishwasher for a year, followed by 2.5 years as a service assistant at the local supermarket. I also spent a month in Paris attending a French language school and living with a lovely elderly French lady. Recently, I headed to Norway, working in a small mountain café and living with my colleagues. There, I served ski enthusiasts from around the world and enjoyed plenty of skiing myself.

When I'm not working, I'm usually immersed in creative projects like crocheting, knitting, sewing, or playing classical piano, a passion I've had since childhood. I'm also a kitchen enthusiast, experimenting with everything from "latte art" on the espresso machine to elaborate baking and dinner projects.

Besides, I'm an avid runner currently training for a half marathon in September. I cherish spending time with friends, family, and my boyfriend. While I'm not sure what or when I'll pursue further studies, I've always known I want to work with people.

Vom Workawayer (Ellen) für Host (Help us reshaping Paradise ...)

This was my first workaway experience, so I didn’t know what to expect. And I was very, very nervous... but as soon as I met these two wonderful men, the anxiety quickly got replaced with a sense of security. Right from the beginning I was assured that Michael and Jens would do their very best to make me feel as much at home as possible. I clearly… read more remember one of my first conversations with Michael where he asked me what I hoped to get out of my stay - that could be places I wanted to explore, food I wanted to taste, forms of work that I was looking forward to trying out, etc. Somehow, they made all my wishes come true in a natural way and I got to experience so many different things while staying there. I also learned a lot about gardening, recycling, and the traditional Italian kitchen, which I found VERY interesting.
Of course, the work doesn’t finish itself and there´s a long list hanging on their fridge with both bigger and smaller projects, that need to get done eventually. They have high ambitions for themselves and for you. But that doesn’t mean that you aren’t allowed to make your own justifications in your "work program". Just ask them and they’ll gladly find a solution that’ll suit you and them in the best way possible.
This couple is very social and they highly value seeing and conversing with people. When they take you with them to the “town” (of 200 people) to do grocery shopping… or to go to the local bar… you’re sure to be introduced to almost everyone you meet along the way and you’ll be met with great curiosity and willingness to know you, as Michael and Jens are loved and adored by everyone.
They showed me a lot of trust, which encouraged me to take the initiative by myself without fearing their reactions. There wasn’t a single morning where I didn’t want to get up and get on with the day’s work - And I’m NOT a morning person! (Although, it’s important to mention that their always lovely meals at all times of the day made it hard not to want to get up.)
I could ask them any time of the day if I needed help or if I needed to get more details about some of the “work assignments” that I had to do, and I knew that they gladly explained it to me twice. But usually, there was no need for that, as they always clearly showed me what and how they wanted things to be done.
Maybe you’d think that the word “paradise” which they use about their place sounds a bit exaggerated… but truly - They aren't lying!!! I’d say the view itself would be a valid reason to go there. Many of their work assignments are about making their paradise even more beautiful and valuable, which I’ve found so meaningful to be a part of. And I’m already looking forward to receiving pictures from Michael in the springtime when the first flowers begin to bloom.

Thank you, Michael and Jens, for making my first workaway experience such a big success!
I must admit that you guys have made it hard for me to look for other hosts… Because right now I'm quite convinced that I'll probably never find such a good match again.

Do yourself a favor and contact these guys! You won’t regret it!

vom Host (Help us reshaping Paradise ...) für Workawayer (Ellen)

Today we SADLY said good bye to Ellen – we had agreed on five weeks and did not realize that with Ellen, it was far too little time.
From the very first moment Ellen arrived, she just blended in and soon became a part of us
Ellen stayed with us alongside another Workawayer and she really was very social and did anything to make both of them a… read more
