Description
Hello beautiful people!

I’m Henna (26) from Finland, and I’m currently studying Social Services at university, while also trying to travel and experience as much of the world as I can. Before diving into my studies, I worked with children, which has deepened my passion for community-building and understanding the needs of others.

I’m passionate about exploring alternative ways of living and creating a deeper connection with nature. I follow a vegan lifestyle, love animals, and am always striving to live more consciously, making mindful choices to reduce my environmental footprint. Nature holds a special place in my heart, and I’m particularly interested in permaculture. I have completed a two-week permaculture course in Spain, which only fueled my desire to dive deeper into sustainable living.

I’m currently seeking projects that focus on sustainability, eco-living, self-sufficiency, and well-being of both body and mind. One of my long-term goals is to create my own farm and live a self-sustainable life, so I’m eager to learn as much as I can from people who have hands-on experience in this field. I'm also looking for opportunities where I can contribute, learn, and earn—so I can start building the skills I need for my future farm. For my next travels, I’m also seeking opportunities to strengthen my Portuguese, which I’ve been learning, and would love to practice while connecting with locals.

I love connecting with people from different cultures and backgrounds, sharing knowledge, and working together to make the world a little more sustainable and conscious. If you’re working on any project that aligns with these values, I would be thrilled to join and contribute!

Henna is truly a great workawayer. She comes with more skills about many things and experiences then you would expect and even more than she would think too. A carefull and glad person with a glimpse in her eyes. She really reflects about what she does and she does things good, finds joy even jobs that are maybe boring as weeding. It was honestly… read more

It has been precious to share with Henna. I found in her a big strong and young soul, always ready to help around, putting 100% of herself and detail in every task she made. Having initiatives and very easy and authentic self expression. She took care of the place with respect, enthusiasm, energy and love, as if it would be her own.
Resonated very… read more

From the first call i got from Angela regarding my stay with their family, I could feel this was the place for me. Angela was full of amazing energy and made me feel so welcome since the very beginning. She was super understanding, flexible and kind, with communication skills that many people and host may lack. Derk came back home couple days… read more

We were very happy to host Henna. She is easy going, hard working and very sweet. She fit in immediatly in our household and on our farm. She is responsible and caring. In the house she took up many different jobs without having to ask, she saw where help was needed and offered it. She felt comfortable around the animals, and they around her. She… read more

I spent one week with Julie, Flor and their adorable little baby. I enjoyed a lot; the given work tasks were easy and there were many things to do. Especially once the routine was found it was chill and once i had done the daily work cleaning the stables etc. there was always something more to help with which i liked. The weather happened to be… read more
