Description

Hi! I’m Julia from Switzerland.

I would describe myself as a very relaxed, positive, and responsible person. I enjoy traveling, learning about new cultures, and I’m excited to meet new people. In my free time I like being outdoors, doing sports, or simply spending time in nature, especially with animals. I grew up with a dog, cats, and rabbits, and soon developed a passion for horses. For the last five years I had a horse I rode regularly and looked after, but now it’s enjoying its retirement.

I’m happy to help with practical tasks such as housework, gardening and anything to do with animals. I also enjoy looking after children and pick up new tasks quickly. Before I completed my apprenticeship as a florist, I spent six months working as an au pair for two young children and the other six months at a riding stable. At the moment I take some time to explore different paths and gain new experiences before deciding on my future career direction thats why I worked last winter in a seasonal job in the restaurant industry, which allowed me to gain some experience and discover my passion for the hospitality sector. Treating one another with respect and getting on well together are very important to me.

Through Workaway, I would like to gain new experiences and learn more about life in other countries. I’m looking forward to meeting you and spending a great time together! 😊🌿

More details about your skills

After finishing school, I worked on a horse farm. There I cleaned the stables, fed the horses, and exercised them. After that, I worked as an au pair for a family with two children who were two and four years old. I took care of the children. In the morning we got ready for the day, had breakfast, played, cooked together, and went outside. In the evening I helped them get ready for bed. At the same time, I helped with the household and with small gardening tasks.

After that, I completed a three-year apprenticeship as a florist. At the moment, I am gaining experience in the restaurant industry.

I have a lot of experience working with people and animals, and I am used to physical work. I also enjoy taking care of children. I am patient, responsible, and like spending time playing and doing activities with them. Keeping a clean and organized household is also very important to me.
