Description

Hello! We are Marie and Magnus, a young, Danish couple from Copenhagen, who are looking to work two weeks in July in a permaculture garden. We are both 21 years old and have for some time been interested in garden work, with Magnus having studied permaculture at a Danish Højskole (a type of school based on ideas of community, that many attend for half a year). We would love to help you with anything inside as well as outside of the garden – whether that would be weeding, digging or construction, though we don’t have much experience with the last one. We enjoy cooking, eating, and sharing stories together, and would love to do that with you. We are not too delicate to enjoy the dirty work, that gardening can include, either.
We are curious people, who enjoy learning about everything and anything – specifically we would love to learn more about permaculture practices and German culture and language at your place, as we enjoy both. So, if that sounds like something for you, please reach out! 😊

More details about your skills

Marie: is a creative person, who is currently studying psychology at the University of Copenhagen. She is a trained jazz and choir singer, who also plays the piano and has danced and drawn since she was little. She enjoys cooking and has hiked often, spending a lot of time in the outdoors. She is good with pets and children, and can beat you in table tennis anytime;) Marie can hold conversation in German, but wishes to improve.

Magnus: is currently studying law at the University of Copenhagen. He has been practicing permaculture for little over a year, both at a school and in his parents’ garden, but other interests include literature and language learning. Magnus always loses to Marie in table tennis but in table football they are evenly matched. He has a B2-certificate in German from the Goethe-Institut in Denmark.
