I would like to travel to Norway and stay there for three months. During my time there, I would like to meet new people, get to know Norway's landscape and culture, and and gain new experiences.

Description

My name is Merle, and I am currently in my 8th semester studying Inclusive Studies in Nordhausen. After completing my bachelor’s thesis, I would like to travel for three months before starting my professional career.

I do not yet have experience with staying abroad, but I am very eager to use the opportunity offered by Workaway to get to know the world a little better and to develop personally. Before entering professional life, I would like to explore new things, gain new perspectives, and create meaningful and lasting memories.

As a Workawayer, I would like to actively help, develop new skills, and gain experience. I want to experience the culture and language and, above all, make new friends. I am open to different tasks and eager to learn new things.
