Description
Hej,

I'm Elsa - yes, like the one from Frozen - 24 years old and study environmental sciences and psychology in Lüneburg, Germany.
During the semester break, I would like to visit Sweden again and truly experience the local lifestyle, the nature, and - of course - sweet pastries. At the same time, I am eager to engage in a project and contribution to something.
Whether it's hands-on work (where I don't have that much experience but enjoy rolling up my sleeves) gardening or nature conservation (areas in which I have some experience thanks to my own garden and my studies) or social work, where my training as a social care assistant might give me an advantage.

I'm excited to see where it takes me:)

More details about your skills
I've worked a lot with kids during my years of practice and also taken care of the littles in my big family and the household.
Careful and hygienic work as well as preparing food, organizing and working close to people is of course the main part of it. Furthermore we always had dogs and some other pets and farm animals so I enjoy and know how to take care of them.
Finally I'm not the born craftswoman but I've tried to build, cycle up or to repair things myself many times so I know a little about tools and the rest I might get done by logic:D

I can be a bit reserved and need my rest, but when I know I'm welcome I actually come out of my shell well and quickly;)

Elsa stayed with us for some intense weeks during summer holidays with the kids and felt like a God-send! She quickly adjusted to our family routines and helped out where she could in a nice and smooth way. Our girls took a direct liking in her and we always felt safe leaving them with her, no matter if it was for a walk to the park, a trip to the… read more

Anna was my personal savior and I am infinitely grateful to have been able to be at her place. She is really the nicest person you can imagine! She entrusted me with her house and cats for a whole week, which means a lot to me. The tasks were much more fun or just calm occupations than work. Even if my perfectionism never let me be satisfied with… read more

Elsa came to me on short notice when another workawayer fell ill and couldn't come to help me with the cats while I was away. She is a very nice, responsible, and kind young woman. She has a very caring demeanor, and my cats loved her. She stayed at my place 8 days, and I was away for 6 of them. When I came home, she had taken care of the house… read more

It was a great week at Moraeas and Gavins place! I had the chance to experience the swedish (and also british) life surrounded by pure nature and very kind people. Including their cute son:)
The tasks were absolutely doable, sometimes a bit exhausting, but sometimes fun or somehow meditative. Which was also the atmosphere that Moraea and Gavin… read more

Elsa was very sweet and helpful. She immediately connected with our young child and did more than she was asked, even when the tasks were outside her comfort zone! She took her own initiative and helped with the washing up every day. Lovely human!
