Travelling
Our next destination:
Guatemala - from Mar 2024 View allDescription
We're Franzi and Ilaria, two nineteen year old German girls that hitchhiked over the Atlantic and are now looking forward to explore Latin America. Being on the Ocean, learning how to sail was an amazing experience that showed us once again that we can achieve everything we want to once we set our mind to it.
After seven months of traveling it's now easy for us to adapt to new places and new faces and feel everywhere at home. You just gotta stay interested in the world and that we are for sure! It's always a pleasure for us to learn new things and widen our horizons. The last months have been a time of immense character growth both as individuals and as a team.
We're optimistic and creative which makes it easy to manage new tasks without stressing out or needing someone to explain us every step.
In the past we worked on several farms, where we learned how to grow vegetables, build fences and look after sheep. Once we even built a pizza oven!
We're both really into all kinds of art; enjoy writing, painting and theater. If you have any creative projects going on, we're totally in for that!Interests

We’re both fast learners and have wide interests, so when you instruct us, we can help you with everything. Growing up in families where it’s common to repair and build new things in the house and garden yourself we already have experience in these things and are inventive ever since.
Franzi is really good with children. She has two nephews which she takes care of regularly and has experience with babysitting and did voluntary work with children during the last year.
I’m not as experienced as Franzi but I also like kids and used to give tutoring lessons after school.
We both did lifeguard training, so we know how to save ourselves and others out of the sea and have basic first aid knowledge.
Since she was just a kid Franzi always played instruments. Nowadays she’s pretty good on the piano and the guitar. Unfortunately, we’re not able to carry them around (a piano is a little beyond our carrying capacity) but if you own one of these instruments she would be willing to play for you and teach you if you like.
I myself am not that much of a musician, but I’m pretty good at other artistic stuff. I really like to draw and always carry my sketchbook with me. If you want to I could make a portrait of you or help with some individual projects.
And last but not least, we love to cook. We would like to prepare meals for you and bond over good food.Age
