Description

Hi everyone, my name is Fiona and I'm 20 years old. :)

I am currently doing a gap year, because I feel like if I don't travel now I will miss this oppounity even though I already did a voluntary service for a year in Germany. I loved working in the social facility because I felt like what I was doing meant something to someone. So the upcoming year I also want to do something useful, traveling and working. This autumn I spend on a farm in Greece and it was wonderful: I experienced so much joy and inner peace doing practical work, while seeing the immidiate outcome.

I'd describe myself as empathetic, easy to motivate, funny and friendly. I smile a lot and I'd also say that I'm a fast learner. I'm open to pretty much anything and will also try anything possible, be it food or whatever. I'm easy to talk to and I meet people with an open heart.

My hobbys include reading and dancing, discovering new music, singing (I'm also learning to play the guitar) and spending time with my friends but also meeting new people and drinking tea or coffee.

More details about your skills

I finished my A-levels in July 2020. From September 2020 to August 2021 I did a federal voluntary service (Bundesfreiwilligendienst) in a social café, where i worked with people with little money, homeless people and immigrants. My exercises were mostly housekeeping (providing coffee and bread, cooking, doing the laundry, organizing the mail for the homeless people), but I took also part in the social counseling sometimes. Additionally, I am an active member of the scouts in my neighborhood since 2018, and I've given math tutoring and have done babysitting for two families with multiple children for a year each.

What else ...

Apparently I am not very seaworthy as I get seasick very easily. It's a pity!

But with land under my feet I work wonderfully fine, I am always willing to learn and not afraid to get my hands dirty. You can rely on me and I don't have high standarts when it comes to the living situation.

Also, I'm three times vaccinated :)
