More details about my language interests
I´m a very inquisitive person so I constantly want to learn and explore. When it comes to exploring a new culture, I think learning the local language plays an important role in getting to know the people and their culture better. I'm a slow learner but I enjoy it!

More details about your skills

- As a side job I have been working for over 6 years as a waiter. I could get a deep insight in the art of providing great hospitality. Furthermore I worked as a staff/waiter manager for big events. So I'm very skilled and experienced in the area of catering events.

- Also in my side job I gave a lot of lessons for new employees in how to work as a waiter/waitress and later I gave courses related to self development, which were for my colleagues. Through this experience I could learn how to teach people new things. I know how to address new information to people and in which way people can learn the best.

- I have a talent and a lot of fun in organizing projects or other things! I love excel tables a bit too much haha and I can structure things quite well and introduce a system on something.

- I'm very interested in technology so I bring a broad knowledge in this area, with which I can easily deepen my skills in specific areas

- I have experience in using basic power tools and some basic knowledge of bulding stuff out of wood

What else ...

Hey there :) Here I talk about myself and how I would describe me.

I really like any kind of social interaction. So I like to play games with people, do some sports, work or learn together or just talk about anything and everything. I especially appreciate talks in which everybody opens up her/his heart and talks about stuff which is important to them. In those moments I see the beauty of life and of every person as an individual. As for me, those talks could continue for ever. It is so interesting and moving for me to hear about the experiences a person has made and how the person sees the world. Empathy is a very important value for me and with every story I hear, I broaden my sense for understanding people and being kind.

Furthermore you could call me a collector of experiences. My father taught me that the most valuable thing in life are experiences. If you learned something or got an insight from that experience, nobody ever can take it from you. I think people should only be rich in experiences (and love of course, too)! They help you later in making better decisions, in reflecting yourself and helping others. So I'm really curios and open to try out new things and to grow by that. I also really think that literally any experience makes you richer.

Last but not least, I really try my best to become more and more the person I really am. I reflect my values and how I want to behave in difficult situations. Morale and ethics help me often with that. The biggest challenge is always to behave with integrity, but I'm convinced that acting with integrity is the best possible way to act in any situation.
I also like to do yoga, meditation, the Wim Hof method and exploring the world of just being. I also did once a Vipassana-Meditation and I'm very keen to explore myself and this kind of things more!
