Description

Hi:)
Before heading to France, I was working in a bar, so I'm pretty used to busy environments, lots of people and keeping things running smoothly. I genuinely enjoy connecting with different personalities and helping out wherever I can.

Before that, I spent a good chunk of time working in the social field, mainly with children and people with disabilities. Making a positive difference in someone's day has always meant a lot to me:)

Right now I'm travelling through France with Workaway, and honestly I'm loving it. New places, new people, new experiences. I'm curious, hands-on, and always up for stepping outside my comfort zone.

Ready for whatever comes next :)

More details about your skills

Ever since I was a child, I spent a lot of time with the little patients of my mother, who is a midwife. This gave me early experience with children and helped me develop a sense for how to care for them with patience and attention.
After finishing my secondary school (Realschule), I completed a voluntary social year (FSJ) in a workshop for people with disabilities. There, I gained a lot of experience in social work and working with people.
After that, I did a 1.5-year internship at an inclusive school. In the first year, I worked with a seventh-grade class, and in the second year, I was a floater in the lower grades – so I got to work in many different areas. I helped take care of the children, supported them in activities, and organized group projects. After the internship, I continued to volunteer with one student, planning leisure activities like trips to the city or visits to the zoo.
Following the internship, I completed a vocational training in photography and media while also earning my Fachhochschulreife (advanced technical school qualification).
For the past six months, I have been working part-time in a bar, which has given me additional experience working with adults. This job has also strengthened my communication skills and sense of responsibility.
Overall, I bring a lot of experience working with both children and adults, and I am reliable, flexible, and organized.
