Description

Hello! My name is Emily and I want to stay on the other Balearic islands from July 2025. I was once on Ibiza 10 years ago and absolutely loved the energy and nature. This time I would like to go back to either of the islands (especially Formentera). So this summer I'd love to experience the energy of the islands, its beautiful beaches and local people.

Workaway is a great way to get to know, mingle and live with locals, so that's why I'm here. These days, I'm mainly offering my language skills as exchange (more below). It would be great to stay with a family, woman or couple and help with improving their English or German. I have a lot of skills, of which you'll read about shortly. I am also practised in hypnosis, a tool to bring you in trance in order to do so so many different things. For example explore past lives, relieve you of old energies, help you with a new direction in life, and so much more - the options are endless! I'll gladly put you in trance if you like. I'm super interested in consciousness development, so we can definitely work with that! I even have hypnotised strangers on trains! Anyone, anywhere, anytime, that's the motto! Haha!

What else.. I have lived in various European countries (Austria - where I am now, United Kingdom and Canary Islands) and have also done some Workaways mainly in the hospitality sector. I am someone who's easy-going, respectful, and I enjoy meeting different people and can get along and talk with anyone about very very many things. I also enjoy being by myself.

Also, translation is something I have worked in for many years, and I have also worked as writer and teaching people languages through talking and conversing (English and German). I'm native in German and fluent (C2) in English and will help grow your language skills in a natural way if you want to improve them.

More details about your skills

Here's a bit more info about my professional and volunteer background:

I studied fashion journalism, worked as journalist, translator and photographer (including international fashion magazines and my blog during that time), gave English and German language conversation classes, worked at hostel receptions, helped growing a garden, built pathways, painted walls, decorated, organised an Easter egg hunt, led city walking tours, managed people and delegated tasks, photographed various events, took photos for hostels' websites, did live streams of events,... and so much more. I have done a ton of different stuff over the years, from many different parts of life. I 've also opened up so much and have grown a lot emotionally in the past few years.

I believe strongly in "live and let live" (even though you can't really do that 100% in this material world for many reasons).

I strive to always evolve and grow. Actually evolution was the name and theme of my dissertation magazine many many years ago, but now the word has acquired much more depth and will continue doing so..

Some of my qualities are being loyal and trustworthy, sticking to my word and being able to view things from other peoples' perspectives. I also pay attention to detail. I've been told many times that I'm trusted. Also, once I was told I'm clear like water, that was nice :-)

Where I volunteered:

At surf hostels and on a sailboat on Gran Canaria, Tenerife and on Fuerteventura, at a finca with a farm on Fuerteventura and at a yoga retreat on Lanzarote.

What else ...

I challenge myself to pay attention to what I put in my body/mind/consciousness and what I consume, starting from food and going to "cultural inputs" (media/songs/series, etc), even though it's not always super easy.

If you have any children: I'm an older sister and mentally have always been like a "mini parent" to my brother and have also felt responsible for him. Growing up it was always in my mind to be a great role model for him. And when interacting with children I am very aware that they are extremely impressive and easily influenced and adapt my behaviour and words to that.

Also, I don't drink, smoke or do any drugs.

For a bit of an additional idea about me, here are some things I'd like to do on the islands: I'd like to spend a lot of time outside, in nature and on beautiful beaches, meet and get to know people, play some tribal drums (I've been wanting to play some for a while, probably I'll find some there) and Tibetan singing bowls, get more creative again, dive into the energy of the islands, and just relax mentally, and help my body get rid of all the old stress.

So, write me up if you feel like it, even if there's something where you're unsure of, and we can have a chat! Let's see where this goes - vamonos!!

  Currently I'm not anything with eating gluten and cow's milk - but don't worry, I'm responsible for myself, so don't think you have to buy/prepare special things.
