Description
Hello, my name is Mare :)
I live in Switzerland and am currently still going to school here, but will be graduating in the summer and would like to travel afterwards. I speak German as my mother tongue, speak (almost) fluently English and have been learning French at school for 8 years and Spanish for 3 years. In my free time I am a very sporty person, I do everything from athletics and handball to windsurfing, climbing and ski touring. I also enjoy being in nature and love animals. I have already done an internship in Iceland and helped on a farm with cows, horses, sheep and also helped with gardening and maintainance. I am also very interested in the environment and have written a thesis on microalgae and climate change. I am not very good at cooking, but I am good with children and animals, I am very eager to learn, I am also a quick-learner and I am always with great perseverance and joy at work :)
Hope to hear from you soon! :)Interests
