Description
Hej there. I am a Jakob, a 26 year old joiner (interior carpentery) living in the city of Munich, Germany.
A few years back I did a roundtrip of Scandinavia (also with the workaway program) and would like to push on where I stopped. I really missed life on the road.
As I mentioned, I´m a professional joiner and currently working at one of the biggest theatres in Munich, so I'm quite used to working on larger scale team projectes.
I really enjoy cooking and experimenting with food as well as activities like hiking, swimming, bouldering and jamming on my ukulele.
The coming Spring of 2025, I´m planing on getting back to traveling and working abroad.
Thanks for reading this far, have a good one and until we´ll meet.

We had the pleasure to host Jakob for a few weeks in the middle of the Covid pandemic:-) At first Jakob came with his girlfriend Lola, and when she left back home to continue her studies, lucky us - Jakob stayed for a few weeks more.The time was difficult because of Corona, but with an optimistic, helpful Jakob, we made the best out of it and it… read more

I had an absolut blast while staying with Kjell and Margot. I was warmly welcomed and given all the freedom I could wish for. They helped me getting around Stockholm, and the surrounding area, heck, they even provided me with a car (: . I had my own place on Rindö, a quiet, small Island in the skerry area south of the Swedish capital.

I had the pleasure to meet and host Jacob in Leynar, Faroe Islands in july/august 2020.

One of his assignment while here was lifting a balcony (aprox 500 x 600cm) 125cm up without any hoist or crane and in a short time frame as fast as possible + with a challenging weather stress factor added to the task.
Jacob was very openminded and took all my… read more

Hej there, fellow Workawayer. You are searching for a nice stay on the Faroe Islands, with a lot of cultural exchange, fun, good food and company?? Then you should absolutly consider visiting the home of John "the legend" Johnson.

My stay with Jeppe and Dear was quite a nice experience, as well as a opportunity to learn some carpeting tricks and getting knowledge about what to be particular about and what not, when on a construction site. Thank you guys very much for letting me stay with you and for sharing you're knowledge, fun and food.
Cu around someday ^^

My stay with Andreas, was my very first Workaway experience, and it's been a blast. It couldn't have been better. I was warmly welcomed and accepted from day 1 and had a wonderful time in Hillerød, especially in the little garden paradise, Andreas calls his second home. A little part of me stayed there when I left, and I will gladly come back to… read more

Jakob stayed with me for two weeks, and I could not have been more happy with him or his work. He has such a gentle and friendly nature and would always be willing to help with whatever project I presented him with. Often he would take initiatives on his own when he saw a need - like watering the plants or cleaning the mess in my toolbox. 😄
