Description

~I'm in Norway right now and searching for Hosts in northern Norway and Sweden~

Hi there! I'm an 18 year old from the Swiss countryside, excited to explore the world, create memories, and learn new skills while helping wherever I can.

I recently completed a three-year apprenticeship as a childcare professional. I’m calm, friendly, and open-minded – sometimes a little shy at first, but I bring positivity, flexibility and a willingness to learn.

Travel has always been my dream. I love discovering new cultures, learning languages, and living life to the fullest. Growing up in the countryside I learned to pitch in, appreciate nature and animals, and feel comfortable both outdoors and in a team.

I enjoy the small moments in life, laugh often, and cherish time with friends and family. Skiing, swimming, and reading are some of my favorite activities. I enjoy being around people but also value quiet moments to recharge.

I would love the opportunity to join your project, contribute with my skills and learn from you while creating memorable experiences together.

We loved having Linda staying with us! She is such a sweet girl, so kind, so considerate. My kids and I felt at ease with her immediately, and she did such a good job tidying and organising my mess of a house. The week passed too fast - I wish she could have stayed for a looong time, and wish her all the best on her exciting solo journey :) <3

I spent a wonderful week with Tuva and her children and couldn't have felt more welcome. From day one, they went out of their way to make me feel comfortable and at home. I had my own little house and could easily get to the city center at any time.

The work mainly consisted of cleaning tasks, which were straightforward and easy to manage. Tuva … read more

I spent the beginning of my first solo trip with Rosaleen and David and I couldn't have imagined a better start. I felt at home during these two weeks. The conversations with them were very interesting and also improved my English. But the five cats were also great company! David taught me how to make yoghurt, milk jelly and Irish soda bread - … read more
