Description
Hello!

my name is Marieke, I am 26 years old, from Northern Germany. After quiting my 9-5 job I am ready to get some new experiences and spend some time away from busy city life and to reflect, before starting my masters study.

I enjoy hands-on experience and time spent in nature a lot. I am also looking forward to meeting new people and learning from and with them.

Looking forward to meeting you!
