Beschreibung

Hello everyone! I am Nele ☀️

In 2016 I finished my university-entrance diploma in Germany since then I've been all over the place studying and working and traveling through workaway. :-)

I grew up in a small village with some pretty mediocre mountains around 130 km away from Cologne. For 18 years I lived on a kind of farm with my parents and my older brother. I adore and appreciate animals and nature, I'm lucky that for most time of my life, I had them around me.

Now that I moved from city to city, I feel like I'm missing my connection to nature, which makes me kind of sad; So I'm kind of trying to get back to my natural origin through my travels. Since being outside makes everyone calm; I guess we can all profit from some inner peace ☀️

Right now, I'm living in a city (Gießen) close to Frankfurt am Main with my thirteen LOVELY roommates and one furry roommate and I love them very much and appreciate not having to live alone. There is always someone to hang out with and it's great.

So here I am, trying to combine being outside all the time with animals and nature with living in a city and trying to be an academic person working more with my mind than my hands; And let me tell you, I think and I hope it will all work out someday haha.

I have a Bachelor's degree in Sociology and currently, I'm studying to get a Bachelor's degree in Psychology as well, so I can go and get a Master's degree in Social Psychology.

During my studies I've been at various jobs: From mounting percussion instruments to working at a vet (for small animals) as a veterinary assistant for one year. Then, I started working at a gym in the sauna and at the reception desk, and I have to admit it was an easy job. Currently, I'm working at a café/bar which I enjoy very much because my coworkers are just lovely and most of the guests are very fun

I GOT MY FULL BIONTECH VACCINATION (four times by now haha) + One time I had Covid, I think I'm covered ^^

Besides that maybe a few words for what I think is important for you to know about me: I think I am good at working on my own, but I also really appreciate good company with friendly, kind, and respectful people. I've formed a lot of special bonds through working with other lovely workawayers

Was könntest du arbeiten?

I am good at riding. I've been riding dressage (not like high-end professional though) for 16 years by now, which just shows how old I got haha
(Note: I haven't been on a horse since August 2022, but I'm working on it, I'm just working and studying a lot right now)

Overall, I really like handling various animals and taking care of them.

Besides that, I enjoy hiking and generally being in nature.
I think my stamina is most of the time quite good, at least I like to think that haha

I love to do and try different kinds of sports, even though I often can't coordinate my arms and legs, and maybe it's just generally my body, but I can look really ungainly/clumsy and maybe that's because I am exactly that BUT I'm out here giving my best.

I grew up helping with work outside and taking care of animals. So when I visit my mom, I do a lot of gardening, digging in the dirt, and planting stuff.
I believe I've got basic building skills and at my former job, I mounted xylophones, drums, chimes, etc. I used to work with wood and metal basically.

Furthermore, I do really enjoy drawing and painting, I am usually creative when I don't even intend to be so. Now I know that is because the left brain hemisphere is blocking the creative right brain hemisphere when trying to control too hard; isn't that interesting haha

I am also capable of chopping wood, I recently learned that haha, but I guess my strength won't hold up too long while doing that. ( I wrote this part almost two years ago and I don't know if that is the truth anymore, to be honest)

Through workaway I achieved some things, which I am very proud of:
For example, in 2016 in Norway we managed to build two big horse shelters in only ten days, or in Scotland I learned how to plant willows in very wet ground, and in 2017 I stayed one month in Spain in an Outdoor Activity Center, where I learned how to handle tourists and take them out on rides. In 2018 I visited the beautiful United States of America two times; in Missouri, I learned a bit of western riding on Tennessee Walkers and Missouri Foxtrotters! In Tucson, AZ I learned to be me and got dressage lessons on wonderful horses AND how to plant figs, citrus trees, and all of that in very, very dry ground. After that workaway stay (and Covid), I went to Portugal in 2021. There, I stayed with two very lovely Dutch people and they taught me that I'm a worthy individual through their appreciation for the work (mainly digging because I chose to, haha) I did for them. Well, last year, in 2022, I went to Canada for the first time, and I basically built a kind of wall covering out of old pallets in Sudbury, ON (also, there is a big Nickle in Sudbury, very important). There, I learned what a Sawzall is. And for my second and very last workaway experience, I went to another very lovely farm in Marmora, ON, where I met so many wonderful people. There I really learned how much I appreciate good company and how important it is for everyone to be grateful for each other and for the small things. It was wonderful ☀️

And there is so much more I learned, I am so, so, so thankful for all the skills I achieved and the people I've met; I'm looking forward to helping other people and learn new things. :-)

Was noch ...

Resulting of the cause that I love animals, I want you to know that I am a vegetarian (kind of at the border to being a vegan). I can cook for myself or for everyone, but take it as a warning: The food will not be very salty and pretty mediocre, well or I'll just eat the vegetables from whatever you are cooking; The opportunities are just endless
Oh and maybe that's important to you: I do actually eat a lot and I don't know how I can stay kind of skinny but I must have been born in the favor of the metabolism gods.
