Description
Hi, I'm Karl and I come from a small village in Fläming. A beautiful region in Germany.After graduating from high school, I spent several months volunteering in Namibia. I worked on farms and in hotels, looked after children, and taught classes.
After that, I completed an apprenticeship as a carpenter in Germany.
Now I am on another trip as a volunteer in southern and eastern Africa to broaden my horizons and gain experience. I am skilled with my hands, but also adaptable and happy to help with any other work.
I did for example help on a Farm in Namibia, assisted a couple to finish the building of there lodge in Zimbabwe and teached at a school in Uganda. I'm open to meet new people and contribute something to there projects and also to make new friends while travelling and explore the world together. -
