Description
Hey there :D,
my Name is Lenya and I am 1 8 years old, living in Germany. Last year I graduated from school and I am now in my gap year before starting university (which might be at the end of 2025 or even next year). I want to use my time to make new experiences and try many new things, like visting another country and getting to know different people.
I love exploring nature and beeing around animals. Horse riding and beeing around horses was a part of my life for roughly 10 years, until i had to quit due to a lack of time, two years ago. I miss it ever since and would love to pick up my old hobby again. This is why I am enthusiastic about finding a workaway experience involving horses and/or other farm animals. I already bring some experience but am eager to learn and improve my skills.
As I already mentioned, animals are a big interest of mine and I have loved them ever since I was a little kid. But some of my other hobbies for example are crocheting, gaming, baking/cooking :) I love reading and writing. Maybe I will write my own book one day that would be a dream of mine. I also love music and good movies (which there are a lot out there ), and I would be happy to get to now new people to share experiences with and also learn new things from. Motorsports is also one of my interests, especially F1. :)
I want to use this opportunity to travel to become more independent and find out more about myself as well as other countries and their people. I am a curious person with an interest in learning and experiencing new things. And I give my best in everything I do, which is also why i would describe myself as a responsible and hardworking person.

More details about your skills
I have quite some experience in caring for animals, as I have been riding horses for a long time and often helped at the stables in the holidays. Moreover, I once did an internship in a veterinary clinic and I have helped to look after the pets of friends and family many times.
I cook and bake sometimes and learn new recipes from my mother. And i can also do general household chores. Any creative work would also be interesting for me, such as painting, because i really enjoy being creative. I am interested in doing farm work. From animal care to gardening or crafting, I like everything :).
But in general I am open to learn anything new and improve my skills, whether it is crafting, fixing or anything else really.

The farm and area around is really beautiful. Surrounded by nature but only 10min to the next train station by car. The family is really nice and I felt really… read more
