Description
Hallo! We are Jakob and Adele from Germany. We are both 19 years old and just finished school. After this long period of studying, we want to take a year off to see the world.
We signed up at workaway because we want to connect with the people of the countries we will be traveling to. We believe that workaway is a great opportunity to learn new skills and about other cultures while being able to give something back to the people who welcome us.
Curious, motivated, open minded and adventurous are the right words to describe the both of us, but we are also reliable and exact when it comes to getting things done (typically German ;)). We both play the piano and Jakob is an excellent drummer as well.

More details about your skills
We both have construction experience (especially Jakob, as he build a tiny house back home). Gardening, cleaning, building project, general help around the house, …. would be nothing new to us as well. Also we love animals and thanks to more than 12 years of horse riding, Adele knows how to work at the stable.
Of course, we would also enjoy to teach German.
We are looking forward to expand our skills, if there is anything new to gain an understanding of or to improve! We learn fast and work well as or in a team.
