Beschreibung
Hello! My name is Marlena and I am originally from Minneapolis, MN, USA. Growing up, my family instilled the value of travel and experiencing other cultures as a strong value that I still hold. I am looking for opportunities in various countries to learn and explore as I (slowly, but surely) make the decision of where I want to move more permanently to.

I have been working as a Personal Trainer and Fitness Coach since 2019 and have a strong passion for healthy & balanced living. I also have worked as a server at a resturant, house cleaner, babysitter, and done a little freelance logo creation/graphic design. Some of my hobbies include cooking, hiking, swimming, exercising at a gym or outside, playing sports recreationally, painting, reading, and more recently playing the guitar. I am always open to learning new skills and enjoying new hobbies.

Face to face human connection, good conversation, and new experiences bring me lots of joy, and I tend to enjoy alone time and social time equally.

Vom Workawayer () für Host (Join us in our lovely house ...)

A Long-Overdue Thank You to Dorte, Søren, and Denmark.

I will never forget how absolutely incredible and vibrant my experience was with Dorte and Søren in Denmark. I feel deeply grateful for the time I spent there, and I want to take a moment to (finally) share my appreciation.

From the moment I arrived, the warmth and generosity of my hosts… read more were evident. They were incredibly communicative, always checking in (but not overly so) and making sure I felt comfortable and at home. They didn’t just open their home to me - they shared their world, their culture, and their beautiful way of living.

Some of the highlights were the cold plunge in the sea, just a quick walk our drive from the house. The sauna experience, or saunagus, was another unique and special moment that I will never forget. It was both intense and peaceful at the same time. I also had the chance to visit Tivoli, one of Denmark’s most iconic attractions, and was included in a variety of dinner parties and family events that allowed me to see and feel the heart of their family and friends. I felt like I fit right in and hope to be lifelong friends with many of the people I met.

I loved spending time in the kitchen, cooking together and for each other. Dorte has every single cooking appliance you could ever ask for (a dream come true!) The food was incredible, high quality, and plentiful. We shared lots of deep, interesting conversations about culture, politics, our passions and life in general at the dinner table.

The town Dragør itself was absolutely charming, quaint and peaceful, yet just a short and easy bus ride into the heart of Copenhagen, which is now likely my favorite city I have visited yet, so much so, that I am planning to move there after finishing my degree. I felt connected to the community quickly by going to events, a CrossFit gym, meeting the adult children of Dorte and Soren, and making friends in random ways (on the train, at coffee shops, etc).

The living space was so comfortable and SO clean, I a private room and shared a bathroom with the other workawyer. The work I did was hardly work at all. It felt more like a natural part of the experience, something I was more than happy to contribute to, knowing I was staying in such a wonderful place. I cleaned, worked in the yard, cooked, and did various tasks around the house.

I will forever be thankful for the time I spent with this incredible family. If you’re ever lucky enough to stay with them, know that you’re in for an unforgettable experience filled with kindness, cultural exchange, and true hospitality.

Love Love Love!

Marlena <3

Thank you again, and I apologize for the delay in sharing this, your love and generosity will never be forgotten!
