Description

Hey you beautiful people, hope you’re doing well! 😊

I’m Clara, a creative, open-minded and warm-hearted person from Germany who loves slow travelling, meeting new people and connecting with animals 🌿🐾

💃 My passion is dance, movement and personal development.
I love creating spaces where children and adults can express themselves, build confidence and discover their own strengths.

🎓 I studied psychology and currently work at a primary school, where I support children through creative activities, social education and meaningful experiences. I’m also a dance and sports teacher, combining creativity, movement and fun in my work with people of all ages.

🌸 In my free time, I enjoy yoga, Pilates, baking, discovering cosy cafés, gardening and creative projects.

🌍 My Workaway journey started in Greece, where I helped a family with childcare, animals and everyday life. Since then, I’ve enjoyed several amazing experiences:

🐶 Taking care of three lovely dogs in Portugal with my partner
🍱 Cooking Japanese food for a wonderful family and sharing cultural experiences
🏡 Spending three weeks in Spain doing house sitting, gardening and caring for a dog and two cats

🐕 Animals have always been close to my heart.
Growing up with dogs and cats, I truly enjoy spending time with them and creating a safe, loving and comfortable environment.

💛 I often travel together with my partner Timo, who shares my love for cultural exchange, nature and animals.

🇯🇵 Timo has a background in hospitality and tourism and works as a tour guide in Japan. Being half Japanese and bilingual, he loves sharing his culture, language and experiences with others. He is also a big dog and cat lover, enjoys cooking Japanese food, and likes helping with outdoor projects, gardening and everyday tasks.

✨ Together, we are a respectful, tidy and easygoing team who enjoy learning from others, sharing experiences and becoming part of the places we stay.
We’re looking forward to meeting new people, exchanging stories and creating beautiful memories together! 😊

What else ...

For me, Workaway is about more than travelling – it’s about genuine connections, cultural exchange and sharing everyday life.

I’m an open-minded, empathetic and positive person who values kindness, honesty and respect. I believe everyone deserves to feel welcome and accepted, regardless of their background, culture, religion, gender or sexual orientation.

I love dancing, yoga, nature, sunshine and meaningful conversations. I enjoy being around people, but I also appreciate quiet moments to recharge.

Wherever I stay, I always try to bring positive energy, lend a helping hand and leave a place a little brighter than I found it. 🤍
