Description
Hey, we are Fiona and Amelie from Germany :)

We are curious, open-minded, and positive people who love learning, exploring new cultures, and connecting with new people. After finishing school in 2025, we knew early on that we wanted to travel together, and now we’re finally making that dream come true.

We started our journey in October 2025 and have already visited Italy, Spain, Portugal, and France. At the moment, we are looking for kind people who would be interested in hosting us in Norway and Sweden. Our current plan is to be in Norway from May 22nd to June 29th, and in Sweden from June 29th until the beginning of August. We’re traveling in Amelie’s car, and since we both have a driver’s license, we take turns driving.

In our free time, we enjoy reading, crafting, some painting, and spending time outdoors. We love meeting up with friends, cooking and baking, and being around animals, especially cats. We're also big fans of volleyball and enjoy staying active in a fun, social way.

Looking forward to the journey and the people we'll meet along the way!

More details about your skills
To date, we have gained valuable experience supporting five different hosts, many of whom managed diverse farm operations. Our responsibilities included a wide range of horticultural tasks, such as weeding, sowing seeds, transplanting seedlings, and general plant maintenance. We’ve also tackled more specialized outdoor projects, including building a dead hedge and constructing an electric rope fence. Beyond the fields, we’ve assisted with various organization and cleaning tasks to keep guest and work spaces in good condition.

A significant highlight of our journey has been our extensive work with animals. Building on our lifelong experience as cat owners and several years of horseback riding, we have expanded our skills by feeding and caring for dogs, pigs, and rabbits. We also took on the responsibility of managing an entire herd of goats and volunteered at a cat rescue center.

We are enthusiastic learners who enjoy taking on new challenges. Whether it’s a task we’ve done a hundred times or something completely new, we are quick to pick up instructions and pride ourselves on being able to work independently after a brief induction.

Fiona and Amelie have done wonderful work here. Despite the fact that it was quite repetitive, they have always done the work in a timely manner, with the same motivation. They are very respectful of others and interacted very well with other people of the family and guests.

Laurent was our second host in Portugal, where we stayed for three weeks in March and learned so much new and interesting things. His property is beautiful and invited us to sit outside in the sunny weather. He also has goats, sheep, and a pig, as well as the sweetest little dogs, Simba and Luna, who are always heard loudly ;)

Although it rained terribly the whole time, it did not spoil their mood. On… read more

Unser Aufenthalt bei Cleo hat leider nur 5 Wochen gedauert. Als wir dort ankamen wurden wir direkt von Katzen belagert bevor Cleo uns überhaupt begrüßen konnte.
Die Arbeit war nicht körperlich anstrengend, wir haben die Katzen gefüttert und deren Räume sauber gehalten, manchmal auch den Hof etwas aufgeräumt. Man ist schnell in den Rhythmus… read more reingekommen und das Arbeitspensum war angenehm. Vormittags arbeiten und nachmittags frei, zwei Tage die Woche frei, nicht unbedingt Samstag und Sonntag.
Zum Mittag hat uns Cleo meistens etwas gekocht, was immer sehr gut geschmeckt hat. Und als wir Crêpes machen wollten hat sie sogar eine Crêpe Pfanne aus den Tiefen der Küchenschränke gezaubert. Zweimal hat sie uns auf den Wochenmarkt in Coín mitgenommen und uns zu den leckersten veganen Sandwiches der Welt eingeladen. Außerdem haben wir zum ersten Mal Zuckerrohr Saft probiert, alles super lecker.
Zwischendurch hatten wir leider kein fließend Wasser, zum Glück ist der Rio del Padrón direkt nebenan also sind wir einmal im Fluss baden gegangen, definitiv eine lustige Erinnerung. Cleo ist sehr lösungsorientiert, hat also schnell einen Plan B fürs Wasser gehabt.
Wir sind schwer beeindruckt wie Cleo sich um ihre 70 Katzen kümmert und alles tut damit sie ein schönes für immer Zuhause finden. Am liebsten hätten wir mindestens zehn von ihren Katzen mitgenommen, ganz besonders Max den Troublemaker. Wir hatten eine super tolle Zeit die wir niemals vergessen werden und konnten ganz viele tolle Erinnerungen sammeln. Dankeschön an Jasmin und Paula, die anderen Workawayer, die zuckersüßen Katzen und natürlich Cleo 🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻

Our stay with Cleo unfortunately only lasted 5 weeks. When we arrived, we were immediately besieged by cats before Cleo could even greet us.
The work was not physically demanding, we fed the cats and kept their rooms clean, sometimes we also tidied up the yard. We quickly got into the rhythm and the workload was pleasant. Work in the mornings and time off in the afternoons, two days off a week, not necessarily Saturday and Sunday.
Cleo usually cooked us something for lunch, which always tasted very good. And when we wanted to make crêpes, she even conjured up a crêpe pan from the depths of the kitchen cupboards. Twice she took us to the weekly market in Coín and invited us to the most delicious vegan sandwiches in the world. We also tried sugar cane juice for the first time, which was delicious.
Unfortunately we didn't have running water in between, luckily the Rio del Padrón is right next door so we went bathing in the river once, definitely a fun memory. Cleo is very solution-oriented, so she quickly had a plan B for the water.
We are very impressed with how Cleo takes care of her 70 cats and does everything she can to find them a nice forever home. We would have loved to take at least ten of her cats with us, especially Max the troublemaker. We had a super great time that we will never forget and were able to collect so many great memories. Thank you to Jasmin and Paula, the other Workawayers, the sweet cats and of course Cleo 🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻

We were staying with Stefano and Francesca from mid-October to mid-November. These four weeks were our first Workaway experience. To be honest, in the beginning our plans looked a bit different. But since our original host cancelled on us last minute, we were so lucky that Stefano offered us a place to stay.

The farm is quite large and home to a… read more
