Description

Hi there!

I‘m a 19 year old girl from Germany, who just finished school in April 2025.
Before going to university and studying psychology, I decided to explore some foreign countries.

I would love to meet new people, help others with their projects, get to know a different culture and try some local food. I am an open minded person, who is eager to try out new things and is ready to help out.
I believe traveling will be the biggest opportunity for personal experience and I am hoping to realize this while emerging myself with beautiful nature and kind people.
I am a sporty person and love to be physically active. I do gymnastics, just as horseback riding and I regularly workout as well, so I will definitely not be staying in bed all day long ;)
I am also very interested in gardening even though I am not experienced in this area. Yet I would love to learn everything about it.

I have recently decided to continue my travel duration and to explore the Scandinavian life (hopefully I’ll be able to work with sled dogs )
I would also love to explore Portugal and Italy and hopefully I can also travel a bit further away to New Zealand or an Asian country :)

More details about your skills

I am really good with animals, especially with horses as I do horseback riding since I am little (but I am currently more interested in alternative riding methods and horse grooming/care:) )

Besides I speak multiple languages I learned in school and I enjoy learning new ones.

I don’t have much experience with manual work but I learn very quickly and am ready to tackle a new challenge. I also have a very good condition, which is why hard and physical work should not be a problem for me.

In addition to that, I am a creative person, who always comes up with new ideas, I enjoy painting and doing handicrafts.
I love to keep my environment clean, tidy and organized.

If I find the time, I like to try out some new recipes .

For the last 3 and a half years I worked as a waitress at an Italian restaurant, which is how I learned a lot about people and Italian food (and a few Italian expressions;) )

(Please note that even though I do have my drivers license, I don’t really feel comfortable driving yet, as I still need to practice and get used to it :) )

What else ...

I would like my time abroad to be all about cultural exchange, learning new things, helping others out, having a lot of fun and some adventures :)
