Description

Hey there, i am Maria and the adventure is calling me... I have always been into exploring new countries, nature, hiking, animals ... but my days off work have never been enough. So i decided to quit my 9-5 job by the end of 2022 and now i am basically travelling fulltime. I am very much into spirituality, personal growth, psychology and i am always willing to learn new things, stepping out of my comfort zone and to face challenges. I`d love to spend time in nature with good people and animals and to come back to my true inner self. I would discribe myself as very open-minded, mostly extrovert (but i need time alone sometimes), fun company, creative, fast learning and as a good organizor or solution finder. I have several experience with renting on airbnb if there is any help needed. In addition to that i work online as a psychological astrologer, reading the birth chart of people. So we could also talk about stuff like that and discuss these topics if you are up to it. In general i`d love to make new contacts all over the world and to get in touch with interesting people and different kinds of living to see, what could fit my future self. :o)

More details about your skills

I am a very good organizor and declutterer. If there is anything in your process that is unnecessary i`ll find it :-) I love to create things with my hands and to use tools, during my last workaways i built a working bench out of wood, created a massive mosaic floor for a yurt, did several painting and gardening jobs and a lot of decluttering. If you need help with Airbnb, i`d love to take pictures for your webside, do textwriting, take care of the bookings, welcoming guests and make sure that everybody feels comfortable. I always have an eye for the peoples needs. I am a very outgoing person and need to have contact with other people. Working alone in a creative project is ok from time to time, but i would thrive more with other people around.

I have experience in dog training, i spent time with dogs of friends and family my whole life, even if i never had an own dog and i did several housesits with animals for strangers on trustedhousesitters. I also did a beginners lesson in horse riding and horse care. I generally love to spend time with animals and to explore nature. I couldn`t decide between the mountains or the ocean, so mostly i look for places, that combine both :-)
Age

35
What else ...

Hmmm i transformed my red Ford Ka into the smallest Campervan on earth ^^ i don`t know if this is relevant. I love any form of exit game, escape room challenge and i am always up to solve a difficult riddle. Good movies and music are important to me and i`d like to have a good internet connection as i need it for my remote job. So i`ll need some hours for astrology every week to be happy and fulfilled :-)

I really don't know where to start with reviewing Maria. She was an absolute gem from the first time we met. She was so energetic and enthusiatic to help with any task I mentioned. My dog Sonny absolutely adored her, especially when she took him on long mountai adventure runs! She was so independant and was able to take any job on without any … read more

Spending time with Kerry and her beautiful Sonny (the bestest boy in the whole wide worldies!) was an absolute blast! I loved every minute of my time here and extended my stay several times :D Kerry is a gorgeous soul, amazing woman, generous, open-minded, warm, welcoming and always caring for her workawayers. On top of that she has a huge wisdom … read more

Maria was an excellent Workaway helper. She helped me reorganise and declutter the house and organise a new system for all our recycling . She also helped redecorate and spring clean the entire house. She was also very kind and patient with my wife who has dementia and her upbeat personality helped my wife a lot. She fitted in very well with our … read more

After about three weeks spending with Robb, Meredith and their gorgeous doggy Khaleesi, it absolutely feels like I've gained more amazing family members! Here, every workawayer will find a warm and communicative couple who are heartily grateful for all your help! <3 I especially loved the in-depth dayly conversations with Robb about personal … read more

I don't know where to start to describe my first ever workaway experience i had with Philip. From the first moment on we got along sooo well, swimming on the same level of humour; not really surprising... he is an irish fellow and i feel a deep connection to that country. Philip picked me up at the airport and then the adventure began. I spend 8 … read more

I cannot begin to describe what an amazing experience this has been, you only have to look at the pictures on my profile to see the incredible mosaic Maria designed, and supervised creating, for my Yurt. She has an exceptional talent and if I ever take on a project like this again I will beg her to come back. Maria has a work ethos and an … read more
