Planning to go to Scandinavia November-February looking for long time volunteer

Description

Hi! 😊

I’m currently travelling through Costa Rica and will be heading back to Germany at the beginning of October. From November onwards, I would love to continue my adventure somewhere in Scandinavia for a few months — ideally until January, February or even March. I especially dream of spending Christmas there, surrounded by snow, nature and lovely people, and experiencing a real Scandinavian winter.

I would be especially happy to find a Workaway where I can work with animals, particularly dogs or horses. I have been riding horses for around 15 years and have experience with horse care, groundwork, young horses and working with them calmly and patiently. I also have a lot of experience with dogs, including regularly caring for and training two dogs back home in Germany, as well as volunteering in dog and animal shelters abroad. During my travels, I have also worked at a horse and animal rescue ranch in the Dominican Republic and on a finca in Costa Rica.

I would love to become part of a nice family, community or animal project, help wherever I’m needed and share everyday life together. I’m happiest when I can be outdoors, work with animals, learn new things and be surrounded by kind, open-minded people. I’m really looking forward to experiencing Scandinavian culture, making new friends and hopefully creating some very special winter and Christmas memories. ❄️🎄🐴🐕

I especially enjoy working with animals. I am currently volunteering on a horse and animal rescue ranch and have been here for one month, gaining hands-on experience with horse care and general animal care. This has given me valuable practical skills and strengthened my sense of responsibility.

I am always willing to learn, support where needed and contribute positively to the team.
