Description

Hi, I'm Malin from Munich, Germany, currently on a Working Holiday in Japan since July 2025. I studied Japanese Studies and have visited Japan several times before, most recently for a year abroad at ICU in Tokyo. This time, I’m excited to explore Japan beyond the tourist trails and popular social media spots—to connect more deeply with the culture, language, and authentic daily life.
As a Workawayer, I’m quick to understand new tasks, pragmatic, and disciplined. I’m experienced with household duties, work independently and reliably, and I’m always happy to lend a hand with physical tasks—within my physical abilities. I'm also an animal lover, so if you have pets, I’d be more than happy to take care of them.
I’m really looking forward to meeting you and can’t wait to discover the many different sides and ways of life in Japan!

はじめまして、ドイツ出身のMalinと申します。2025年7月からワーキングホリデーで日本に滞在しています。大学では日本学を専攻し、これまで何度も日本を訪れたことがあります。直近では、東京の国際基督教大学（ICU）での交換留学を経験しました。今回は、観光地やSNSで話題のスポットを離れ、より深く日本の文化や言語、そして日常生活に触れたいと思っています。
ワークアウェイでは、素早い理解力と実用的な考え方、そして規律正しい姿勢でお手伝いできます。家事全般が得意で、自主的かつ信頼性のある働き方を心がけています。体力的に無理のない範囲であれば、力仕事も喜んでお手伝いします。また、動物が大好きなので、ペットがいるご家庭では喜んでお世話させていただきます。
なお、話す日本語は少し鈍ってしまっているため、まだ流暢には話せませんが、日常会話には問題ありません。ご不便をおかけすることもあるかと思いますが、温かく見守っていただければ幸いです。
皆さんとお会いできるのを楽しみにしており、日本のさまざまな暮らし方や価値観に触れられることを心から楽しみにしています！
