Brazil View allDescription
Hello everyone😊
my name is Katharina and I am a 24 years old girl from Germany.
During the last years, I studied International Business in Berlin and I had the chance to spend one semester in Canada and one semester in Colombia. I truly loved the South American culture and that‘s why I decided to also travel to Ecuador, where I volunteered at a kite surf camp, and to Peru, where I visited some friends and explored its cultural richness.
Already back in 2019, after I finished school, I traveled for seven months in Australia and I loved my Workaway experience. During this period I had the chance to work as an Au Pair in Sydney, help in a caravan park in Canberra, support a chook farm on Kangaroo Island, as well as to live on a camel farm in Alice Springs.
In general, I am a very active, positive, funny and sporty person who loves to learn new things and get in touch with local people. While I can speak German, English, French and Spanish more or less fluently, I am eager to improve my little knowledge of Portuguese. This is also one reason why I would love to volunteer in Brazil, and get to know its culture, people, nature and language.
Apart from that, I collected three years of experience as a soccer coach for younger children, and I worked for two months in a surf camp in France. Playing soccer, volleyball, ping-pong, going surfing or skating, dancing and playing music in general are a big part of my life.
I am looking forward to get again involved in a community and support, learn and exchange knowledge while spending an amazing time together.Interests

More details about your skills
Firstly, I want to mention that I am a person who is really open minded, organised and cooperative.
Furthermore, I am very sporty and musical and I can adapt myself fastly.
As a soccer trainer for younger boys, I already collected many experiences in interacting with children.
Additionally, I was the student representative at our school and also the senior contact person for younger people and that’s why I already learned to be responsible for a big group of people representing their interests.
Apart from this, I have also mechanical skills and like to do some craft. While traveling in Australia I did a lot of gardening and general household tasks. If there is something I am not familiar with I am open minded to learn it ;)
You can always rely on me and, which is also important, have fun with me.Age

The whole Fryer Family welcomed us warmly and always tried to make the best out of our stay. The work was easy going and we mostly helped with light duties and played with the children.
Apart from that, we also got an impression how the Egg Farm is run and it was very cool to help with the chicken!
