  • Description

    Hey everybody! My name is Janine. I am 27 years old and live in the north part of Germany.

    At home I work for a public employment agency.
    Since a very long time I have the dream to travell through other countries, meet new people from all over the world, learn from other cultures and improve my english skills.
    I've already visited a lot of different countries on vacation and every time I enjoy it to learn something about new places.

    Now it is time to make dreams come true: In the time from Nov. 1st 2022 to Sep. 30th 2023 I take a time-off from my work and offer my work for farms in New Zealand.
    Whether with animals or with vegetable or fruit growing/picking, I want to do work physically and learn more about the agricultural work. In my dad's garden I helped him with the harvest of potatoes, carrots, strawberries, berries and I took care of the chicken and rabbits. I loved this work and want to support where it is necessary.

    In my free time I like to do sports, especially Capoeira. I enjoy spending time with family and friends, cooking together or meeting up for game nights. I also love spending time outside in nature.

    At home, I am a member of an initiative that works to increase the visibility of queer lifestyles.
    Tolerance and acceptance of all gender identities and lifestyles are important to me. So I'm looking for hosts who share this view.

    Some will say I'm a bit shy at first but open minded. I'm definitely a person who loves to learn new things and treat people and animals with respect.

  • More details about your skills

    I have a degree in „Labour Market Management“. Now I work as an employment facilitator.

    In addition to my work, I am a volunteer with the THW (German Federal Agency for Technical Relief). I learned in a team how to rescue people from rubble and we work with a large technical equipment.
    Among other things I learned how to tie various knots, to use a water pump, to transport injured people on a stretcher, to lift heavy loads with the help of hydraulic devices.
    So I can learn fast the handling of technical devices.

    I would say I am skilled in craftsmanship, especially in woodworking. I built a wooden rabbit enclosure and supported my father during house building (srewing on chipboards). I have experience in the work with the drill and cordless screwdriver. I am grateful if I can learn more in this area.

    I am an animal lover, cared for the dog, chicken and rabbits on my own while my father was on holiday. I also have taken care of the garden in this time.
    Wallpapering and Painting are also activities I do not for the first time. I helped friends when they moved into other apartments.
    I love cooking and I think it also tastes good 😊

    My mother tongue is German. I have good English skills but want to improve them.
