Description

Hello Workaway Community

I was born and raised in Germany but have lived in subtropical Australia for the past 14 years.
With no tolerance for the summers here anymore and a calling to venture to new horizons, I am taking off to experience cooler country and its people.

A mature traveller (born 1966), I enjoy contributing and sharing what is meaningful to you
while i can be perfectly happy in my own company.

Gardening has been a big part of my life, especially growing food.
In my late 20s another calling made me a midwife and health practitioner.
After migrating to Australia I have worked in Aged Care/Home Care as well as being a live-in-carer for some years in rural northern NSW.

A simple, rural lifestyle is best suited for me.
I can do most things around house and garden but avoid lifting, pushing or pulling heavy weights around.
Wood stacking is a favourite :)

I'm known for tasty salads and can produce some decent cooked/baked goodies, too.
A healthy omnivore, I am very happy with a purely vegetarian diet, too. No special requirements.

I don't like watching television. I have plenty of alternatives at hand if you want to watch television. Sometimes I can be talked into watching a movie.

Some experience with fibres, from knitting to weaving with natural fibres.
Singing is a big joy, esp with others.
I'm learning to play some ukulele.

I'm open towards indigenous teachings, caring for country, deep listening, etc
