Description

Hi, 
We're Simon (20) and Florian (19) on our trip through Europe. We travel by train and our folding bikes 🚲 to stay as mobile as possible while saving resources and being environmentally friendly.

I (Florian) grew up on my parents' farm and worked in their café. After we moved house, I gained experience as a babysitter and maths/chemistry tutor. The last few years, a home for the elderly and a guest house near a convent were my workplace, where I took care of the elderlies/guests needs and wishes, cleaned, checked the corona test or tested them and helped in the kitchen.

I'm Simon and I have experience working with kids. I'm also a ski and snowboard teacher and love nature. As a passionate climber and hiker, I loved the summers I spent as a teamer at an Adventure-Camp in Austria, helping holidaymakers experience something new and adventures like climbing, mountain rafting, hiking, paragliding, canyoning and lots more. I love cooking and am very interested in learning more about gardening and growing vegetables. Furthermore, physical work is something I have some experience with but where I also want to learn something new. During my time in school, I stood up for the students needs as a student representative and also helped in my position as school paramedic. I participated in some Erasmus-Exchange-Projects where I got to know different cultures. I really liked that and am looking forward to get to know some new cultures through the year of traveling.

We are both hoping to extend our horizons by learning something new about different jobs, tasks, cultures and people. Together, we have some experience in physical work and are happy to learn more in this area.

Thanks for reading and have a nice day. 🌞
