Description

Hello!
I am 18 years old and still have many dreams - one of them is to get to know the world. That's why I'm here at Workaway. I love the idea of combining travel with meaningful work, meeting new people and really experiencing cultures - not just as a tourist.

I am an open, curious and helpful person who likes to lend a hand. I especially love nature and animals and prefer to spend time outdoors. Friendly, respectful encounters are very important to me - I value harmonious interaction and like to bring a positive atmosphere with me.

Even though I haven't traveled much yet, I now feel the desire to go off on my own, leave my comfort zone and gain my own experiences. I'm ready to learn a lot, take on responsibility and embrace new ways of life.

Workaway is the perfect opportunity for me to gain valuable insights into other realities of life and ways of working - and to make a contribution at the same time. I'm looking forward to discovering new places, helping out and developing myself further - as a person and as a traveler.

In my free time, I prefer to be on the move - I love being outdoors, being active and enjoying nature. I love swimming, hiking, cycling and playing volleyball. I also love anything to do with water, such as boating. In general, I just really enjoy sport and exercise.

I also like gardening - I find working outside with my hands and caring for plants very calming. And when I'm indoors, I love cooking or baking - preferably for others. I like to try out new recipes and enjoy giving pleasure with food.
