  • Description

    Hi :)
    We are Ida (20) and Lotta (18), sisters from Germany. We graduated in July 2025 with our “Fachabitur.” Now we want to see the world, meet new people, and gain as many new experiences as possible while learning new skills and sharing beautiful moments with different people around the globe. We think the possibility of meeting people, you would normally never encounter because of distance, is incredible, and we would love to help and support wherever we can, as well as share stories and knowledge with others.
    We grew up in a warm, loving family, where everyone is close and supportive no matter what. We also value creating a comfortable, fun, and friendly atmosphere, and we would love to bring that warmth to a new “family” for a while. We are used to helping around the house, doing chores, gardening, or taking care of animals. Since we were little, we have had chickens, which we love because they give the feeling of having a small farm in the garden, and we really enjoy taking care of them. Besides that, we had rabbits and guinea pigs. Unfortunately, we have never had our own dog, but luckily our neighbor has one, and we often spend time with it, sometimes taking care of it for several days when the neighbors are on vacation. We just love that.
    Now, a little bit more about our personalities ;)
    We are both very friendly and supportive people who love chatting with others and sharing funny moments together. We are also very organized, ambitious, and love learning new things. At first, we sometimes need a little time to warm up to new people since we are not completely outgoing—but this doesn’t last long. Once we get to know someone, we are talkative, funny, and always ready to help wherever we can. Having spent a year each doing an internship in a kindergarten, we love spending time with children, doing different sports and creative activities, and making them feel comfortable and safe.

    In the past, we traveled a lot with our family (our parents and sweet little sister), mostly to Sweden and Italy. We just love spending time together, going camping—even if it can get a little chaotic with five people ;) We believe family and friends are the most important and precious things in life, and we would love to expand our circle and meet new people.

    I (Lotta) speak English at B2 level and learned French for four years (B1 level). However, since my last class was two years ago, I might need a little refresher. I also learned Spanish for the last year (A2 level). I just love learning different languages because it allows me to communicate with people from all over the world, which I think is incredible!
    I (Ida) also speak English at B2 level and have studied Spanish for the last year (A2 level). I feel the same way about languages :) We would love to improve our skills or even teach others what we know. Oh, and of course, we both speak German as our mother tongue.

    We are really looking forward to meeting you, having many experiences, and making the most of every moment :) Feel free to ask us anything you’d like to know—sometimes we forget to mention things, since we know ourselves so well ;)

  • More details about your skills

    Lotta(18):
    I have completed my Fachabitur (advanced secondary education) and during this time I spent one year doing an internship in a kindergarten, working there for half of each week. Through this experience, I gained valuable skills in childcare, communication, and teamwork, as well as a lot of insight into the social field.
    I also have experience taking care of animals, as I have had several pets in the past. I truly enjoy spending time with animals and looking after them with care and patience.
    I grew up in a family where everyone helps each other and contributes to the household, so I am used to supporting with daily chores and working together.
    I am a very ambitious person who likes to stay organized and structured. At the same time, I am empathetic, patient, and enjoy connecting with people. I love being outdoors and in nature, whether it’s gardening, spending time with children, or caring for animals.
    I am open-minded and always eager to learn new things, which makes me flexible in different environments and tasks.
    My native language is German, besides that I speak English at B2 level, French at B1 and Spanish at A2.
    I have several hobbies that I really enjoy. I love reading and writing, as they allow me to explore new ideas and express my thoughts creatively. I also enjoy listening to music, which helps me relax and feel inspired. Occasionally, I do some sports on my own, just to stay active and healthy.

    Ida (20):
    I recently finished my Fachabitur and spent two years doing internships in four different social institutions. During that time, I gained a lot of experience working with children and I really enjoy looking after them. I also love taking care of animals and feel very comfortable around them.
    I’d describe myself as a reliable, polite, and open-minded person who enjoys being around people and making new connections. Helping others and learning from different cultures is something that motivates me a lot.
    My native language is German, but I also speak English well and know a little bit of Spanish. In my free time, I like to stay active – I enjoy sports, yoga, and spending time outdoors in the fresh air.
    I’m really looking forward to new experiences, meeting people, and learning new things along the way!
