*2024 TRAVELLING JAPAN AT THE MOMENT*
i'm markus, a screenprinter from germany with an engineers bachelors degree in media technologies...
i am here for connecting with people all over the globe, interested in improving myself by learning and trying new things and of course giving a hand wherever i can.
i'm open to whatever kind of work you'll have to offer!
i've spent some years in iceland, worked on several farms doing all kinds of work. (harvesting/maintenance work/animal care, operating the tractors...)
i worked in a fish factory in the production and as a forklift driver and i worked as a guide in a boat at a glacier lagoon.
i also stood in canada, where i worked at a rafting/glamping/yoga resort and was also doing a bit of everything.
i was guiding hikes, doing archery with guests, kitchen help, cleaning, and maintenance work.
for a few days i was dog- and housesitting as well!
i also worked as a housekeeper, on the front desk and helped building a log and straw house.
last year i've been in finland, working as a guide for icefishing, snowshoeing, snowmobiling, ...
at the moment i travel japan until april, hoping to find a place to hopefully extend my stay a bit.
SO IF YOU NEED A HAND! BE OPEN TO CONTACT ME! I'M HAPPY TO HEAR FROM YOU!!! ☺️
i like being active and being outdoors, hiking, climbing, swimming, making music, singing, drawing and i love to take pictures!
my goals are helping wherever help is needed whilst learnig about different cultures and exploring this planet and evolving!
