Description

Larissa (29)
Hi, I’m Larissa, and I’m an open-minded and spontaneous person. Working with animals brings me joy; I have been dog and cat sitting for 7 years, and I learned to ride when I was 19, continuing for 6 years. Constantly experiencing and learning new things is important to me.
Getting my hands dirty and doing hard physical labor is no problem. Training as a machinist provided me with basic skills in walling, paving, timber construction, and formwork construction, so I am familiar with physical work. In 2023 I received my B.A. in civil engineering.
In Berlin, I trained as a bartender and have worked as a waitress and bartender at weddings, major events, and trade fairs for 3 years.

My next adventure takes me to Australia.

I travel with a friend (Viola) and share this profile with my brother.

Hi, I'm Viola (27) from Germany. After completing my B.A. in Journalism, I worked full-time as a radio producer for the past three years. Additionally, I’ve been giving badminton training to kids for the past 11 years.

After finishing school, I spent one year in New Zealand, working as an au pair for four children for seven months, followed by some fruit picking. I’ve also held several part-time jobs, including windsurf instructor, lifeguard, retail assistant in various shops, and call center agent.

I am open-minded, reliable, and organized. Having worked full-time for years, including shift work, I am not afraid of hard work. I speak fluent English, have a driver’s license and a car, and I’m always on the lookout for my next challenge.

Feel free to reach out for my resume or to schedule a phone call!

Chris (German below)
Hi, I’m Chris, 34 years old, and currently traveling through Europe in my self-converted van with my two dogs. After working for 17 years in an office as part of a development team, I decided to take a new direction and explore the world. On my journey, I’m not just looking to discover new places but, more importantly, to connect with locals, learn about different cultures, and improve my English.

In addition to my office work, I have also worked as a lifeguard for many years, which has taught me the importance of being active and working outdoors. Through converting my van, I’ve gained a lot of hands-on, practical skills, and I enjoy helping out with repairs, building, or any kind of manual work.

I’m excited to gain new experiences through Workaway, meet people from all over the world, and contribute to interesting projects. Whether it’s gardening, handiwork, or other tasks, I’m eager to learn and help wherever I can.
I am traveling alone and sharing this profile with my sister.


Hallo, ich bin Chris, 34 Jahre alt, und reise aktuell mit meinem selbst ausgebauten Van und meinen zwei Hunden durch Europa. Nach 17 Jahren Arbeit im Büro als Teil eines Entwicklungsteams habe ich mich entschieden, eine neue Richtung einzuschlagen und die Welt zu erkunden. Ich möchte auf meiner Reise nicht nur neue Orte entdecken, sondern vor allem den Kontakt zu Einheimischen suchen, um mehr über die verschiedenen Kulturen zu lernen und mein Englisch zu verbessern.

Neben meiner Büroarbeit habe ich lange Zeit als Schwimmmeister gearbeitet, was mir gezeigt hat, wie wichtig es ist, körperlich aktiv zu sein und im Freien zu arbeiten. Durch den Ausbau meines Vans habe ich zudem viele handwerkliche Fähigkeiten erworben, und ich packe gern mit an, wenn es etwas zu reparieren oder zu bauen gibt.

Ich freue mich darauf, durch Workaway viele neue Erfahrungen zu sammeln, mit Menschen aus der ganzen Welt in Kontakt zu kommen und aktiv bei spannenden Projekten mitzuhelfen. Egal, ob im Garten, beim Handwerken oder bei anderen Aufgaben – ich bin bereit, Neues zu lernen und zu helfen. Ich reise alleine und teile mir dieses Profil mit meiner Schwester.
