  • Description

    Hello everybody!
    We are Nico and Julia and have a happy relationship since eight years. We are born and raised in a rather rural area in Germany. In our free time, one of us likes to read and write. The other likes to do sports and to meet with friends. At the moment, we are living together and had the idea to travel after our studies. We would love to travel across America, starting in South America to North America. Our motivation behind our desire to travel is to learn about other cultures and languages, gain new skills, meet nice people, see something from the world outside of Europe, learn about different foods, and would be happy to help other people while our travels as well. We both have calm, friendly and social personalities. One of us is more extrovert, the other more introvert. But in the end we balance each other out well and make a good team.
    We would be happy to get to know you and have a good time together!

    ¡Hola todos!
    Somos Nico y Julia y tenemos una relación feliz desde hace ocho años. Nacimos y crecimos en una zona bastante rural en Alemania. En nuestro tiempo libre, a uno de nosotros le gusta leer y escribir. Al otro le gusta hacer deporte y encontrarse con amigos. Por el momento, estamos viviendo juntos y teníamos la idea de viajar después de nuestros estudios. Nos encantaría viajar por América, comenzando por América del Sur hasta América del Norte. Nuestra motivación detrás de nuestro deseo de viajar es aprender sobre otras culturas e idiomas, adquirir nuevas habilidades, conocer gente agradable, ver algo del mundo fuera de Europa, aprender sobre diferentes alimentos y estar encantados de ayudar a otras personas mientras viajamos como bien. Ambos tenemos personalidades tranquilas, amigables y sociales. Uno de nosotros es más extrovertido, el otro más introvertido. Pero al final nos equilibramos bien y formamos un buen equipo.
    ¡Estaremos encantados de conocerte y pasar un buen rato juntos!

  • More details about your skills

    Hi! My name is Nico and I graduated university with a bachelor as a social worker. I really like working with people. I already worked in the gastronomy/event managing, in the kitchen, in the nursing service, in a children's home and in assisted living for mentally ill people. In the past, I also engaged in unsalaried services and internships in the work with people.
    I have basic gardening skills because I regularly help my grandma with her big countryside property and have interest for growing plants and vegetables. Futhermore, I have proper strengh and am able to carry heavy stuff. I also like to train with weights and love to cook.

    Hello! My name is Julia and I graduated university with a bachelor in educational science and English studies. Before our travels, I worked in two kindergardens and love the work with children in general. In my neighborhood, I liked to babysit the children. I do not have experience with teaching, but I could imagine to teach English and German to other people or children. Furthermore, I am quite skilled in writing, as I am writing novels in my free time. Because I design my own book covers, I have some experience in computer designing. Moreover, I have some experience in the gastronomy and worked as a waiter.

    We have been on the trip for 3 months now and have already gained some experience. We have already supported and led English classes in a school, as well as independently run an afternoon care program with a wide variety of activities for indigenous children.

    ¡Hola! Mi nombre es Nico y me gradué de la universidad con una licenciatura como trabajadora social. Me gusta mucho trabajar con la gente. Ya trabajé en la gestión de eventos / gastronomía, en la cocina, en el servicio de enfermería, en un hogar de niños y en vivienda asistida para enfermos mentales. En el pasado, también participé en servicios no remunerados y pasantías en el trabajo con personas.
    Tengo habilidades básicas de jardinería porque regularmente ayudo a mi abuela con su gran propiedad en el campo y tengo interés en cultivar plantas y vegetales. Además, tengo la fuerza adecuada y puedo llevar cosas pesadas. También me gusta entrenar con pesas y me encanta cocinar. (Google translate.)

    ¡Hola! Mi nombre es Julia y me gradué de la universidad con una licenciatura en ciencias de la educación y estudios de inglés. Antes de nuestros viajes, trabajaba en dos jardines de infancia y me encantaba el trabajo con los niños en general. En mi barrio, me gustaba cuidar a los niños. No tengo experiencia en la enseñanza, pero me imagino poder enseñar inglés y alemán a otras personas o niños. Además, soy bastante hábil para escribir, ya que escribo novelas en mi tiempo libre. Además, tengo algo de experiencia en la gastronomía y trabajé como camarero. (Google translate.)

    Llevamos 3 meses de viaje y ya hemos adquirido cierta experiencia. Ya hemos apoyado y dirigido clases de inglés en una escuela, así como gestionado de forma independiente un programa de atención vespertina con una gran variedad de actividades para niños indígenas.
