Hey @ all (:
I´m Alex and live like the motto; "Every man is the architect of his own fortune", so therefore I decided to break out from my everyday life and start traveling in May 2022.
Making things by hand, leave my comfort-zone, try new things out, improve your skills it´s all what I ´m looking for.
I worked in Canada on different farms (family owned & professional agriculture), helped to build a house of wood and straw, drove big machines and worked two seasons as a supervisor for Canada´s largest cherry exporter.
36 years old, openminded and interested to understand the world, meet people and enjoy my life.
I grew up in Eastern Germany and after rising through the ranks I decided to change my mind and realised that the "traditional" way of living isn´t made for me at this time.
My life in the last past years was characterized to studying the German tax law and auditing regulations to receiving my master´s degree. I worked fulltime in an international tax agency.
I am a positive person who is interested in many things and who always wants to expand his horizons, as well as to determine his limits.
Through my professional training I have learned to be careful and conscientious.
I like to take responsibility and work independently as well as in a team. Is there something to do, I usually recognize it before someone is given me directions.
At the moment I´m travelling with my girlfriend Hanna (https://www.workaway.info/en/workawayer/Hannamst). She showed me the tasty world of vegetarian and vegan food, so I´m now a big fan of it.
Feel free to contact me :)
