Description

Hi, my name is Emma, but most people call me Em or Arlow (long story how I got that nickname)
I'm 18 and just finished school in Germany. Before starting my university journey, I want to gather experiences and learn more about not only myself but also other cultures and people.

I think the world is too big to only see a small fraction of it. That's why I've decided to take a year off and try to travel as much as I can. I want to meet new people, try out different ways of living, gain and improve my skills in many different fields, and overall, just make sure I collect as many memories and knowledge as I can.

I am open to living with families/ individuals, on farms or helping out in hostles.

I like all kinds of art, nature, animals and kids. I love exploring, learning, and sharing intrestest, experiences, and the likes.

I'm a very curious and ambitious person looking for someone or someplace that will let me experience new things and people. For me, this is as much about getting to know new people as it is about the work and travelling.

I'm excited to possibly spend part of my journey with you and exchange cultural knowledge and interests!

More details about my language interests
I love learning new languages, especially through interacting with other people. I have gathered bits and pieces of many languages but would love to improve in one or more languages to a level that allows me to at least hold a conversation. I am open to helping someone else learn or improve their English or German as well!

More details about your skills

I am great with kids as I have spent many years babysitting and looking after my little brother as well as interning at a kindergarden. Daytrips, outside activities, arts and crafts, reading stories, playing games I'll always find a way to entertain the little ones.
Animals and nature have a big place in my heart. Protecting our environment and making sure animals are treated with the best care and love is important to me. I have experiences with pets and smaller gardens already and am eager to learn more about other kinds of animals.

I enjoy many forms of art, mostly writing and painting. For me, it is a wonderful thing to see people express themselves. Museums, art galleries or pottery classes you'll find me there. I take great interest in other cultures and ways of living and love to share my own especially in the creative way.

I'm a decent cook and a pretty good Baker, on top of of course being able to do basic housework and chores.

I am open to helping around the house, watching kids, helping to care for animals or gardens, DIY projects and renovations.

I can also work great in a team and would love to experience hostel or farm work, NPO organisations or other kind of community care are wonderful things too.

I have some experience travelling on my own mostly through Ireland where I first spent 9 months as an exchange student and later returned several times to travel the country on my own. I am independent and reliable in my travels
