Description
I’m travelling around New Zealand with my backpack, getting to know the country. I’ve wanted to come here ever since I read about it as a child – and now the chance finally came when my daughter wanted to attend a high school here for three months (she’s studying in Alexandra, where I started my trip).
Fishing is one of my great passions, and I also have a (german) hunting license. I speak English fairly well, a little French, and of course German.
I’m a calm and easy-going person, i get along with almost anybody - in a really peaceful athmosphere i will get more outgoing.
Most of the time I travel by hitchhiking.

More details about your skills
I’m a bit of a generalist – not an expert in anything, but fairly capable in many things.
My professional background is in nursing; I worked for 13 years in a forensic psychiatric clinic, and for the past 7 years I’ve been working in youth care, currently as an outdoor and creative therapist. I have five children, so I’m used to being around kids and usually get along with them easily.
I have my own house and many animals, I’m comfortable with computers (Software and hardwareskills, though not much of an Apple user), can repair many things on cars, and like to build or fix things made of wood. I enjoy gardening.
Fishing is one of my great passions, and I also have a hunting license. I speak English fairly well, a little French, and of course German.

Thank you for picking me up and taking me back to Havelock Harbour – the ride itself was already an adventure for me as a landlubber. The area is absolutely beautiful; you can see the sea glimmering between the islands in many different moods and colours.
