Description
Hello there, I am Ali, a happy human being full of gratitude for life. I am very curious about meeting new people and visiting places, being inspired and learning new things in various areas of life. Of course I also love to pass on the knowledge I carry.

For the last couple of years, before and after traveling beautiful South America for about a year, I was working as a youth worker, so I I am especially experienced in the social field, working with all different kinds of people, especially kids and youngsters, with whom I did a lot of creative projects. I love handcrafting, drawing... Basically everything I can work on with my hands. Any kind of hard body work, I am up for it :) When working on a project I see sense in, I will put all my heart into it and help out with anything that needs help for. I am an grand animal-lover, so I will love working with animals as well. If you are interested in Hatha Yoga classes, I have education in teaching yoga classes and would love to do so. For my upcoming journey I seek inspiration, fulfillment and learning new things. If there are any questions feel free to ask, I will answer with an open heart and open mind.

Es una gran alegría haber conocido a Alisa y Franz, su entusiasmo, buen humor y sus ganas de colaborar.

Enseguida formaron parte del lugar.

Se entendieron de maravilla con las ovejas. Nos ayudaron a cortar un árbol que estaba muy viejito y era peligroso, con la desmalezadora, con la cocina...
Nos dejaron regalos sorpresa como una mesa de madera,… read more

We enjoyed every single moment we spent with Lotta, Tommy, Bruno, Panchula and Canela at their beautiful home just a few meters away from the most beautiful beach. We never felt like working for them, but more like supporting friends in what they love and like becoming part of the project. In return Tommy and Lotta supported us with so many things… read more

We spent two great weeks with Ricardo, Guadaloupe, Elu & Zuri at their place sorrounded by beautiful nature and with an amazing view on the lake. During our stay we helped with looking after the hens (some chicks were born during the second week of our stay), the gardening (you can pick some vegetables and fresh spices for your own cooking),… read more cooking, water management and help with construction work of the new dome…

During our free time we enjoyed the area of San Martin (you can f.e. do a beautiful hike to San Martin starting right from the workaway). Guadalupe and Ricardo were both very patient with our spanish and supported us in learning some new words (for Ali especially the spanish names of plants in the garden:)) while we could teach them some english in exchange. Sometimes we played games with the whole family and it always was a blast (we even got to learn a new game). We would have liked to spent some more time with them all but totally unterstand that life is busy. We absolutely fell in love with the two dogs Coco and Marmelada, which even ended up sleeping beneath our dome and greeting us every morning.

Thank you, Ricardo and Guadaloupe, and happy to welcome you in Germany one day :)

Pasamos dos semanas muy buenas con Ricardo, Guadaloupe, Elu y Zuri en su casa situada en la naturaleza y con una vista magnífica del lago. Durante nuestra visita ayudamos con las gallinas (algunos pollitos nacieron durante la segunda semana de nuestra visita), la huerta (puedes tomar algunas verduras y especias frescas para cocinar), la cocina, la distribución del agua y la construcción del domo nuevo...

Durante nuestro tiempo libre disfrutamos de la región de San Martín (se puede, por ejemplo, hacer una hermosa caminata a San Martín). Guadalupe y Ricardo fueron muy pacientes con nuestro español y nos ayudaron a aprender algunas palabras nuevas (para Ali especialmente los nombres en español de las plantas en el jardín:)) a cambio pudimos mostrarles algo de inglés. A veces jugamos a juegos con toda la familia y siempre fue una fiesta (incluso pudimos aprender un nuevo juego). Nos hubiera gustado pasar más tiempo con todos ellos, pero entendemos que a veces la vida es poco ocupada. Nos enamoramos absolutamente de los dos perros Coco y Marmelada, que incluso acabaron durmiendo bajo nuestra domo y nos saludaban cada mañana.

Gracias, Ricardo y Guadaloupe, y encantados de recibirlos en Alemania algún día :)
