Description

Hola,

me llamo Christina (Tina), tengo 41 años y vengo de Alemania. Ahí soy enfermera pero hace un año y medio he decidí de descubrir mis raíces españolas ya que mi padre era manchego. Así que, desde mayo 2023 estoy en España como voluntaria en agricultura ecológica, en turismo y como niñera (también en otras plataformas como WWOOF).
Tengo un teletrabajo de 8 horas semanales que me permite cubrir los gastos y todavía me deja suficiente tiempo para viajar y hacer voluntariados.
Me gusta la vida sencilla, cerca a la naturaleza y con gente buena en el alrededor.
Hablo español en nivel B2, inglés con fluidez (he vivido en los EEUU por un año) y alemán como lengua materna.
Soy una persona comunicativa así que puedo mejorar mi español cada día.
Soy creativa en todos campos en plan las manualidades, solución de problemas y en la cocina.
Responsabilidad y una comunicación respetuosa para mí son la base de una relación sana, o personalmente o profesionalmente en el trabajo.
En Alemania he vivido en una casa compartida por 14 años, así que estoy acostumbrada a la convivencia y la me encanta. Puedo adaptarme a personas y situaciones fácilmente.
Intento vivir lo más sostenible que pueda con proyectos de reciclaje, necesidades bajas y un uso creativo de las cosas que ya existen. Una vida autosuficiente sería una maravilla, aunque ya he aprendido que significa muchísimo trabajo. Pero para mí parece un trabajo muy honesto y directo para ganar lo que necesitamos de verdad.
Aparte de cocinar me encantan las actividades al aire libre para caminar, nadar y descubrir.

Hi,
my name is Christina (Tina), I am 41 years old and I come from Germany. There I am a nurse but a year and a half ago I decided to discover my Spanish roots as my father was from La Mancha. So, since May 2023 I am in Spain as a volunteer in organic farming, in tourism and as a nanny (also on other platforms like WWOOF).
I have a telework of 8 hours a week which allows me to cover expenses and still leaves me enough time to travel and volunteer.
I like the simple life, close to nature and with good people around me.I am creative in all fields such as handicrafts, problem solving and cooking.
I speak Spanish at B2 level, English fluently (I lived in the USA for a year) and German as my mother tongue.
I am a communicative person so I can improve my Spanish every day.
Responsibility and respectful communication for me are the basis of a healthy relationship, either personally or professionally at work.
In Germany I have lived in a shared house for 14 years, so I am used to living together and I love it. I can adapt to people and situations easily.
I try to live as sustainable as possible with recycling projects, low needs and a creative use of things that already exist. A self-sufficient life would be wonderful, although I have already learned that it means a lot of work. But for me it seems like very honest and straightforward work to earn what we really need.
Apart from cooking I love outdoor activities for walking, swimming and discovering.

She's easygoing, was … read more

My time at Jonathans finca was just awesome! The place is peaceful and quiet yet the town with a few shops, bars and a bus stop is just a few walking minutes away. Even walking to the next city (Tortosa) is possible, takes about one hour and from there you can reach many places by train or bus.
The finca itself has a lovely camping charme with … read more
