Description
Hi there!
My name is Maxine, and I'm so excited to get to experience my first workaway trip ever. I love learning new skills and trying out new stuff, which is why I've just finished an entry-level carpentry course, even though my background is academic. I enjoyed the creativity and connectedness to the material that the carpentry course gave me, but because I am very interested in culture studies I will continue to do a masters in Modern Culture after this summer.
I would describe my self as a warm and compassionate person, who is very interested in learning and experiencing other cultures than the one I have been raised in - and this curiosity is what have brought me to workaway. I live in Copenhagen and find my self spending too little time in nature, even though going on outdoor trips sparks me joy. This is why I also want to do this kind of traveling - disconnect from the overstimulating city life and being active in a more wholesome way outdoors with inspiring people!
Last but not least I love eating food and cooking food with other people, this for me is the biggest love language. So I hope to share loads of nice meals with my hosts and fellow volunteers.
Big regards

Giacomo and the other guys created an uplifting working atmosphere, where you could choose, which task you wanted to be a part of. I mortared a stone wall with a fellow workawayer, which was fun and satisfying. The atmosphere in general is… read more
