Description

Hi ,
I am a German woman living in Norway, dreaming of traveling the world (at least parts of it) again. I love to combine traveling, language exchange, meeting other people, exploring new cultures and ways of life. I am trained as a therapist for people with disabilities. I have worked for many years with people with different needs for support and in all age groups. It is the work that has given me the most joy and personal development in the long term. I am a kindergarden teacher as well. After leaving Germany I added two years in the horticultural university of Iceland and two years of menthal health care studies in Norway to my formal education. Travelling, living and working in different countries gave me new prospects of life and filled in knowledge I did not gain through school education. Its fun, its wonderful, its developing and its important when we can use old and new challenges to pave our paths through life. In 2020 I took part in a month cobbuilding workshop in Mexico. Natural building and permaculture ideas are subjects of big interest for me. I am very much hoping to learn more about it while traveling the world. I am planing to quit my job here in Norway in september 2024. Hope, to be able to work-travel and enjoy life for about six month or more . Greetings from Norway/ Katja

More details about your skills

I look at myself as a reliable, persistent and independent worker with a lot of patience and a keen understanding of things those need to be done. People tell me that I am a quick and detailed observer. I have gardening skills from my times as a willing worker on organic farms, from helping to create an organic garden in Sweden and from living on an organic farm in New Zealand. I have beginner skills in cobbuilding , I know how to form clay and love to use my hands for all kind of creative duties. I really love art projects, without being an artist myself. In my eyes it is most fun doing art with children, since they have so many ideas and unspoiled creativity. I have great interest in learning new skills for all aspects of life.
