Beschreibung
*Currently looking for a short-term stay in between September 20th - October 6nd :)) I could use some time somewhere by the sea in Europe during my time-off from uni. Don't mind working outside or getting my hands dirty :)
Hi everyone! I'm Fiona, I'm 20 years old and from Germany. In 2022 I left my home to travel Canada as a work & travel for a year, and came back in June 2023. While my time in Canada was very much not planned through and I came there with zero ideas of what to do, I went to my first workaway in August 2022 on a horse farm close to Kamloops BC and found my love for horses there. I continued traveling from ranch to ranch for almost nine months and gained experience in riding, farm work and of course traveling and being on my own. I haven't been a horse person before and I really started doing this spontaneously, but it was the best decision I could have made. After I came back home last year I immediately started riding in my hometown, helping out in the barn and eventually did an internship as a groom since I'm riding at a reining stable. Now after some time has passend and I kind of got lost in the process of trying to figure out what to do with my life and what I want, I decided to move out and started going to university where I'm now studying information management and corporate communications. But since my passion for traveling didn't pass and I wish to see more of the world, I want to spend my time off uni in the summer traveling around Europe and once again go to different workaways and meet new people and places. I'm an open-minded person who loves to read and go out in nature.What I love about workaway is that I got to meet so many different people and see unique places that all got a place in my heart and created memories I will still talk about in fifty years. I love the exchange between cultures, but also just to see how other people live and work and exist if that makes sense. I'm a quiet person but at the same time thrive in company of people who I can have great conversations with, it just takes me a day or two to warm up completely, but I have found that traveling-Fiona has a much easier time opening up that not-traveling-Fiona. So if you are interested in having me stay with you I would love to get a message from you!Interessengebiete

Was könntest du arbeiten?
Farm work:
After working on various ranches in Canada and at the stable in Germany, I have gained a lot of experience but obviously there's still a lot more that I need to learn. I would say I'm an intermediate rider and feel comfortable in all the gaits. I'm really open to learn more and try things out and my instructor asks me to do something I haven't done before I always give it a go and see how it goes. I mucked out stables every weekend in order to pay for my riding lessons and did an internship as a show groom since my riding instructor and her husband are reining riders competing in the NRHA and train reining horses. I'm always eager to help with whatever needs to be done on a farm, even if I haven't done it before :)
Other:
In Canada I stayed at a workaway for five moths helping with cleaning out airbnb cabins and a lodge while also caring for the horses so I have some experience in that department as well. I also did a workaway where I did dog sitting and looked after my host's house while she was gone. I'm good with animals and even though I have never owned dogs I grew very familiar with them in my time in Canada. I also love to cook and bake!
If there's anyone out there with carpentry skills I would love to help with this kind of work as well and get some experience!
Work experience:
Right after I graduated school I started working in retails for a year. After I came back from Canada and finished my internship I started working for a printing company until I moved.Alter

Was noch ...
Short version of hobbies/interests again: I enjoy hiking and being in nature, cooking, baking, reading, languages, taking care of animals, DIY-projects and creative stuff in general. I also absolutely don‘t mind getting dirty or doing hard work, I‘m open to learn more if you‘re open to teach me what I need to know!
