Description
Hello!
My name is Flora and I'm from a small town in the north of Germany.
I am currently doing my Master's in Political Science but whenever time allows it, I am exploring new countries with the help of Workaway ;)
In the past, I have lived and studied in England, Portugal, France and Germany, and been inspired by all the different cultures, languages, cuisines and lifestyles I got to experience during that time. Now I would like to get out of Europe more and connect with people from all over the world.
I enjoy keeping busy so you will find me cooking or baking, learning new languages (French, Portuguese, Dutch), doing yoga or dancing in my free time. I love to get involved and creative - be it in organising concerts, singing in my local choir, drawing or crocheting. :-)
In 2021/22, I did a voluntary service planting trees in a national park in Portugal which is where my appreciation for nature comes from. I am therefore very interested in nature-conservation projects. I have also worked in politics and women's empowerment for some time now and it is a topic that I am passionate about.
Other than that, I'm also interested in a sustainable lifestyle and try to eat vegan and as "zero waste" as possible.
I'm so excited to connect with other workawayers and hosts here so don't be hesitant to get in touch. :)

More details about your skills
Since I have started my studies, I was constantly involved in event management projects. I have organised Portuguese concerts and film nights, political conferences about diversity and inclusion in German society, a fundraising event for the local homeless shelter and many other small-scale events for the students at my university. In my second year, a group of friends and I also set up a website that everyone on our campus could use to borrow things from others for free so that our belongings could be used more sustainably in our community. I have also worked in various front desks, for example at our local Unicef office and at a doctor's office so one of my best skills is staying organised, focused and friendly.
I love cooking and have worked in the kitchen and as a housekeeper in a hotel-I find that cleaning and tidying up can be quite relaxing and take your mind off of other things.
During my voluntary service in a Portuguese national park, I got used to working outside no matter what weather conditions. We were mainly pIanting trees, but I would also be interested in some gardening, especially growing vegetables or fruit, as I have done that during a work experience a few years ago and loved it!
I'm constantly improving my skills in different languages, I speak fluent German and English, quite a bit of French and I am also learning Portuguese and Dutch. I feel that languages open up a completely new world so I try to learn the basics in every place that I go to.
I am good at taking care of animals, I've had rabbits, a cat, dogs and I have done horse riding for a few years as well.
As you can see, I'm always looking for something new to try or to learn so if I haven't mentioned the skill you are looking for, chances might be that I am very enthusiastic to learn it. ;)

What else ...
I am very passionate about politics and women's rights, which is why I am studying political science. One of my favourite subjects at university was critical theories, especially feminism and postcolonialism which taught us about non-Western ways to theorise about international relations and politics.
