Description

Hello Hello 🐊✨,


My name is Julienne, but everybody calls me Julie or Ju, always open for a new nickname ;).


With 16 I went to an school exchange in Japan (Nakatsugawa Gifu country side) for 7 months and it was an incredible life changing adventure.
Am so So THANKFUL for that and the big generosity of all the people I met inspired me to do the same.
I also learned that material things won’t make me happy, that negativity just gets in the way and that helping others and doing nice things for them makes me the happiest.

Japan has been a big challenge, the big culture difference and the long stay made me believe I‘m on a whole other planet that I truly loved. First time that I was the stranger that needed to adapt, to learn fast the language and so on.
The goodbye to everyone was the hardest...
After Japan I finished school, but couldn’t decide what to study.
So I just worked and traveled a bit.
I‘ve been in Crete for a month with some friends, sleeping at the beach everyday and helping renovate a house. It was hard work but yeah the ocean feels so much better when you’re all sweaty and exhausted :).
For two years now I have been backpacking all around the world, starting in Europe flying over to Thailand, checking out Malaysia and back to Japan.
Me and my friends tried to live as cheap as possible, so the tent was our hostel and nature our home. I didn‘t plan I just followed the flow and live… live get crazy wonderful when you let loose and just trust and follow.


In general I love being active and I work out a lot.
I really don’t like to sit inside all day and being in nature is literally my medicine.
Big cities make me feel rushed, overwhelmed , consumed from all the consume and not like myself anymore.
Many years now I spend most of my time in nature, either running, slow walking, deep breathing, touching our green energy and air giving lovely surroundings, sitting, observing, meditating, stretching, climbing..
I don’t need our systematic mass contraction anymore that darkens your mind with comparison, judgement and way too much random stuff, facts that stick around your mind like a cloudy spider net which makes you think your having a clear sight.
I want to fell some light on my face, touching and seeing the real things, understand our planet and all the super duper interesting small big creatures on our planet that are way way way more interesting then anything I ever saw in television or elsewhere.
There is so much beauty out there to explore and am ready for it. 💚

More details about your skills

I’m a really outgoing person, active and energetic. Running, sport, stretching and meditation wakes me up in the morning and gives me the energy I need for the day. I’m an early bird and love physical but also mindful work.
Like building, planting, weeding, cooking for many people, painting, crafting, crocheting and learning 🌳.

At the farm in Thailand I learned how to work with machete, the drill, nail gun, hammer, bamboo, stones, concrete..
I worked on many building projects and try to make them more stable, nice looking, to understand more about the material and to be more experienced with the tools so that I don’t cut myself so often anymore .
With every new project I get better, and it makes me pretty happy to see when Its going more smooth and smooth. Ahh it’s so addictive!
I would love to develop more my building skills and knowledge about material and tools.

Cooking and preparing some vegan meals is my daily routine and has been for a long time 🙏🏻🌳.
8 years ago I changed my eating diet to a healthy, whole food out of the ground style and now I automatically grab all the good stuff and it’s super easy for me to create some good colorful meals.
I would love to cook for you, ferment some stuff, bake something, make vegan milk…
