Hello my name is Barbara and I live in Hannover in North Germany. I'm an Agricultural Engineer and work in an Education Center for young adults with special needs. My responsibility is teaching and practical work training of landscape gardening. This includes designing gardens, planting and pruning trees and ornamentals, general garden caretaking, paving and fencing, growing fruit and vegetables, teaching about sustainable landcare and much more. As we work in multi professional teams with social workers and therapists our aim is to maximise the support of our students according to their individual needs.
My spare time I like spending with friends, hiking in nature, bike riding and cooking.
In 2024 I will take a break form work, a Sabatical, to travel the world and offer my help to humanitarian, sustainable and climate friendly projects. I have always been interested in other cultures and communities, and I would like to learn from them and share my skills and knowledge.
