Description

Explorer, student, dancer, painter, let's see what comes next!! :)
warmhearted and creative girl, active and quirky

Hey there, I am a Student, 21 years old, studying at uni in Germany and am looking forward to exploring the world around me and all the different kinds of people in it during my semester break.

I am looking for a nice place to stay at while helping someone out with their home or project, contributung whatever I can, learning and most of all connecting with the people aroung me.
I am very social, creative, willing to learn and open to everything new.
During my free time I really enjoy dancing, painting, writing, being in nature and spending time outdoors, yoga and meditating from time to time.

Communicating in english definitely won't be a problem as I got the wonderful and unique opportunity to practice and improve my english during an exchange to New Zealand, an amazing experience that I still very fondly remember and has definitely shaped me! I love getting to know new friendly faces, strangers becoming family and being in nature ( and am also very interested in sustainable ways of living in it)

I have volunteered before, on workaway and elsewhere, e.g. for a zero waste crew at a Festival in NZ (Womad) and for different tasks in my school. I also did an apprenticeship at a hostpital, a family/community centre, a speech therapist and an occupational therapist, so I'm used to facing different challenges and really enjoy helping and interacting with people.

I am very looking forward to getting to know even more countries, people and ways of living.
Right now, I am mostly looking for a placement during August and/or
September, but other dates might suit me as well, I'd be glad to hear from you!
Have a lovely day and please contact me if you're interested!
