Description

Hi,

I'm Christopher, 23 years old and I'm from beautiful Weimar, Germany! :)
I love to meet new people, cultures (especially their language and food ^^) and places.
I'm half French but never learned the language properly because my German mother raised me by herself and in school i only had English and Russian. Thats why I really want to go to France and learn proper French and something about its culture.
I love to work with Kids, disabled people or animals and although I'm not very skilled in crafts or gardening I'm very motivated to learn new things and even to leave my comfort zone, because that's what Workaway is for, isn't it?
I love Ballsports, music and reading too if you can do anything with this information. ^^
I hope I could give a small overview of myself. :)

More details about your skills

As I mentioned in my profile I love to work with humans in a pedagogical or in a supportive way.
I have completed various internships, including in kindergarden (2 Weeks), in school (6 Weeks), on a farm for disabled people (aka Camphill, 7 Weeks) and in a hospice (6 months). Furthermore I worked 3 years as a carer for a young mentally and physically disabled man.
After my workaway experience I want to study social work or special pedagogy.

At my school I had subjects like woodworks, forge or gardening so I'm not completely new to work with my hands but it never was or will be my passion. (I would, of course, do it anyway).
I moved out 6 years ago so you can add chores to my "skills" if you want to.
