Description
Hi my name is Maria, I am 39 years old and from Germany. Currently I am in between two jobs and am taking the opportunity to travel for 4 weeks. As I am going to work for a company which produces essential oils I am especially interested in regions and projects who are distilling essential oils. I will start as a strategiy buyer for raw material and I am really excited to start this new business chapter!

I am a trained yoga teacher and was working as a vegan chef for the last 4 years in Germany. I love nature, hiking, swimming, yoga & meditation, reading and in general enjoying and discovering a new culture and its people!

I have already lots of WorkAway experience which I gathered during my 2 year travel from 2017 to 2019 mostly in Africa and the Middle East. Check out my references.

I would love to improve my French and I am very curious and excited to meet locals in Corsica and Provence!

Hope to see you soon!

My three weeks with Ahlam were the perfect start of my longer stay in Morocco.

My one-month stay at Liora's house was filled with so much warmth that it made it hard for me to leave. I especially enjoyed being part of her family while sharing many meals together, meeting her lovely children and other family members and friends and doing activities with her together. With Liora I shared my first Shabbat dinners ever and was… read more
