Travelling
My next destination:
Peru - from May 2024 until Jul 2024 View allDescription
Hey! My name is Laura and I'm from Germany. Just having finished my bachelor's degree in Psychology, I am now eager to travel to Costa Rica and after that to South America (probably Peru and Bolivia).
Last year I did a semester abroad in Barcelona and fell even more in love with the Spanish language. So I feel like this would be the perfect opportunity to further improve my Spanish.
I love doing sports, especially tennis, running and yoga. Also I love seeing in the nature to go camping, hiking and skiing. If possible I would also like to learn surfing.
I also really enjoy cooking and baking. For me, cooking together and exchanging recipes, is a great way to get to know other cultures.
In general I love traveling and learning about different cultures and I feel like being a Workaway is one of the best ways to really get to know the culture of a country and the local people! I am a very open minded and easy going person.Interests

I have worked as a waitress and bartender since I am 16 years old. I love working as a waitress because I get to meet different people everyday and it never get's boring.
Also, I worked as a tennis instructor for children. This was a unique experience as I could watch the children making improvements each week.
At home I often do minor repairs, paint walls or work in the garden.
Through a previous workaway experience I was able to learn more about gardening, maintenance and house cleaning.
However, I am very enthusiastic and open about learning new skills.Age

What else ...
I am curious to learn more about different cultures and other peoples way of lives. I truly believe that broadening your horizont and getting to know different perspectives on life is one of the best things you can do, in order to not only grow as person, but also in order to be a better, more understanding fellow human being.
