Description
I work in adult education, teaching German as a foreign language and supporting unemployed individuals of all ages in their return to working life. I help them identify opportunities to develop their skills and improve their employability. My teaching also includes fundamentals of business and application management, delivered through both one-on-one coaching and group sessions.

Alongside my professional work, I have extensive experience with dogs and horses. Through long-term study of communication between horses and humans—grounded in empathic perception—I have developed a deep understanding of behavior, trust, and non-verbal interaction. Working closely with animals has also strengthened my awareness of authenticity and relationship dynamics.

I am happy to share this knowledge with anyone interested.

Mareike was a welcome help with our daughter. She also prepared very tasty meals.

Mareike's heart was in the right place. She very much wanted to help the dogs and proved to be a hard worker. Mareike didn't fully appreciate the harsh life of a Romanian abandoned dog. Monica has shelter rules as she has had years of experience in a very rural village. A lot of volunteers (me included), are keen to improve the lives of the dogs… read more

Very welcoming and caring atmosphere. The accommodation was a house with all comfort and a beautiful view over the rain forest. Beaches were near by and lots of things o explore in the nature around. I enjoyed my stay there most of the time. Marley, the dog is good to everybody and has got a heard of gold.

Bea lives in a house with a wellcomming atmosphere. I appreciate the talks we had during lunch and dinner.
Uncomplicated and clearly communicated tasks were easy to be done. I also enjoyed to communicate with her cat calls Schnuppel. Thankfully for this experience I would like to stay and help again.

Mareike likes to make wonderful meals! We had a good time together. She was helping me in the house and with the Airbnb-Guests. Thank you very much! We talked about God and the world, horses and church.... She was like a friend.
