Description
Please read this description carefully and only send a request if you feel your skills and interests truly match the requirements.
I’m currently looking for some support and would be very happy to welcome someone who enjoys live, is organized, clean and with a good calm positive vibe.
At the moment, I’ve a broken my leg. That means I could use help in a few different areas:
- Language & Learning: support with French lessons (I’m still absolutely beginner).
- Household : sorting things, daily help, cleaning, small repairs, and organizing - due to broken leg.
- AI & Tools: I’m very interested in learning about the most important AI tools – not only ChatGPT, but also other solutions. If you’re experienced in this field, I’d love to learn from you and explore how to apply these tools together.
You would be staying in my bright flat in Essen, with a large balcony and everything you need close by (supermarket, bakery, etc.). We’ll share the space with me and possibly one other person.
I’m open, curious, and my motto is: Be with love – where your focus goes, your energy flows.
I’ve traveled a lot and would love to share stories, experiences, and passions with you – while also learning new things together.
!!! Please write me a little about yourself and what you can bring to the exchange, so we can find out if it’s a good fit.

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
To make a change it needs a lot of inspiration.
Traveling the world since 2017 and I have a lot to share. I like to be positive and laugh.
I´m a meditation and yoga teacher - so I’m happy to share that knowledge. Original I'm a hotel experte, event organizer and office manager....
Like to cook and love eat, have a relaxing morning routing with meditation, writing and coffee, listening to music and dance. Laugh a lot. Seeing art, gardening on my balcony, invite friends and I like the outdoors.
In the area are nice bike and jogging path and the GrugaPark and an outdoor swiming pool is also near and nice to explore.
I like to share my knowledge and to give what I can - with love.
Help
At the moment I need help with a deep cleaning projects – the flat is nice and bright and my yearly extra cleaning is on the schedule at the moment including a little bit of renovation.
At the same time the cellar needs to be get a bit of attention and to get a clean out to get a creative cellar working room.
It would be so nice to have some helping hands for this.
Easy chores, good music and positive vibes.
If you can teach me Spanish or Dutch or correct my English - that would be brilliant. Or do you like to teach me guitar or singing, do you have experiences around building container houses, self-development, yoga, Ayurveda, meditation, speed reading, texting or publishing - lets share knowledge.

Accommodation
I’m happy to offer you a lovely room in my apartment.
The flat features a fully equipped kitchen, so you can easily prepare your own meals. A supermarket is right across the street, and the area is well-connected to public transportation, making it easy to get around. You’ll be living with me and potentially one other person in a bright and spacious flat, complete with a large balcony that you’re welcome to use. Everything you need is nearby – supermarket, bakery, and more.
You’ll be cooking your own meals with your own ingredients - meals are not included.
What else ...
There is a lot to do in Essen and in the middle of Europe.
The UNESCO Zeche Zollverein is nice to visit and the famous Folkwang Museum is for free (beside the special exhibitions in September there is a big Keith Haring exhibition).
Everywhere in Essen you will find a place where you can grab a bike or a kick-board to rent - so it is easy to get around and see stuff.
I like urban art and gardening, yoga and be curious. You can also order the cocktail taxi and enjoy the evening on the city balcony after work.
Essen is in the middle of Europe and the bus system makes it very easy to see Cologne (with the beautiful Kölner Dom), Dusseldorf (with the river Rhein) or Bonn. Also Amsterdam, Berlin and Paris are not days away...a lot to explore.
