My next destination:
New Zealand - from Dec 2023 until Dec 2024 View allDescription
Hi, my Name is Leo, I'm 27 years old, once living in Berlin, Germany, now traveling through New Zealand.
I want to immerse myself in a more "simpler" lifestyle: being in and around nature, doing and learning handiwork like woodworking, taking care of animals and being engaged in helping the hosts and contributing to their community. In the beginning of the year i had an amazing Workaway experience in Norway, the delayed consequence of this being that i have now quit my job, travelled two months through eastern Europe and am now in New Zealand until December 2024.
My interests are learning new knowledge and skills; conversing and sharing ideas about science and nature; music, films, photography and magic.
I'm organized, open to meet new people, eager to learn, humorous and knowledgable. I enjoy working in a team, but I'm also self reliant and can tackle tasks by myself.
Even if i don't have a certain skillset, i will certainly apply myself to the task at hand.
I deeply believe that as long as you are eager to learn, curious and engaged, you can be helpful and successful in succeeding at a certain task, even if you lack the "necessary" skills for it.Interests
