Lisbon, Portugal - from Sep 2024 until Jun 2025 View allDescription
Hi! We are Charlie & Philipp, a couple from Germany moving to Portugal!
I, Charlie, am a 29 year old lawyer and certified Yoga Teacher. I will do a masters program in Lisbon starting in September, which is why we are moving to Portugal. I love nature, animals, yoga (obviously :) ), reading and music. I love working with animals and have some experience with dogs, cats, horses, goats, sheep and alpacas. I would also really love opportunities to teach some Yoga, I am certified as a 200 hr teacher for Ashtanga, Vinyasa and Pranayama.
I am a very content and motivated person, so I am happy to help wherever I can :) Since I will start studying mid-September, flexible hours would be great for me so I can adjust the work to my schedule.
Philipp is 33 years old, has studied bio analytics, statistics and bioinformatics and is currently searching for a remote Job. He loves cooking amazing vegan food, making music and spending time in nature and with animals. He is super excited about learning new things and loves to fully immerse himself in new projects.
We have a little rescue dog called Joey. He is very sweet and chill with other animals (cats, dogs, as far as we know also farm animals). He can be quite scared of people and will then start to bark a lot, so it would be perfect if we have a room to ourselves where he can chill.
We are searching for a space where we can spend a few weeks, or, if it works out great, a few moths starting in September, while we are searching for a place to live. We have some workaway experience (farm work, cooking, cleaning, renovation projects, garden work, some construction work, animal care) and are happy to help wherever we can! We can also offer to stay in our own car (rooftop tent). About 3 hours of work per day would be perfect for us since we have to search for a flat, I am studying and Philipp is on the search for a job :)
Both of us would really love to learn wave surfing, so it would be perfect for us to find a place close to the sea.Interests
