Description
Hey, I'm Anna-Lena, 26 and from Germany.
I'm starting my 3. Year here in Australia and wanna gain more experience and exchange with locals.
Back home I just finished my apprenticeship as a Wood sculptor and worked in a prop workshop. Here in Australia, I mostly worked in farmwork :picking, packing, irrigation and some tractor driving.
I grew up on a sheep farm and was surrounded by animals my whole life.
I enjoy meeting new people, gain experience in life, and of course practice my English, which already improved a lot compared to when I arrived haha.
I am a reliable, calm person, I love being creative and very open to learn new skills.
In the evening, I love watching some series or playing board games, Working on a little creative project like my travel journal or just enjoying a lovely chat.

More details about your skills
During my apprenticeship, I learned some new skills, such as modeling, sculpting, working with wood including basic carpentry, carving, gluing, and even using a chainsaw.
I helped my mother renovate an old timber house and also did some work with clay.
I grew up on a farm with a lot of animals, like sheep, goats, dogs, cats, horses and chickens.
During grape season I learned tractor driving.
I like being creative and have a lot of interests, such as cosplaying, sewing, playing the piano, painting, DIY crafting, horse riding and making jewelry. Additionally, I loved taking care of my 200 houseplants in Germany! XD
