  • Description

    Hi!
    My name is Mervi,
    I’m 20 years old and I come from Germany.

    I’m currently in my first year of training to become a preschool teacher. During the school holidays, before the next part of my training begins, I want to explore the world a little more and gain practical experience.

    I’m especially drawn to Sweden – because of its stunning nature, the peaceful atmosphere, and the many opportunities to be active outdoors.

    I live with my family on a small farm at the edge of a village.
    I’ve been surrounded by animals since I was little – sheep, ponies, cats, chickens, rabbits, ducks, and a dog are all part of our everyday life. Growing up this way taught me how to take responsibility, be attentive, and treat animals with patience and respect.
    My Family build a small house for me and my siblings where I also had to help different things. Sometimes I helped to insulate the roof and cut and screw on plasterboard or just helped with some lifting.

    I’m very independent, cook for myself, and am reliable, adaptable, and eager to learn new things. I also like to read, listen to a lot of music, go for walks or bake cakes.

    I’m easygoing, friendly, close to nature, and open to new adventures – whether it’s camping, canoeing, or simply working together as a team.

    I’m looking forward to meeting new people, experiencing Swedish culture firsthand, and contributing my skills in a meaningful way.
    At the same time, I hope to learn more about sustainable living, animal care, and everyday life on a Swedish farm.

    Warm regards,
    Mervi

    More details about my language interests
    I speak German as my mother language and like to teach it to others, even if I have never done so before. I'm ready to learn new English at any time, but I'm not secure enough to teach someone else Ich spreche Deutsch als Muttersprache und bringe sie gerne anderen bei, auch wenn ich das bis jetzt noch nie gemacht habe. Englisch bin ich jederzeit bereit neues dazu zu lernen, doch um sie jemanden beizubringen, bin ich selbst nicht sicher genug.

  • More details about your skills

    Since I grew up with animals, I know a lot about them.
    I live on a small farm and every hand is needed, that’s why I used to do heavier work Sometimes.

    I especially enjoy working outdoors, preferably with animals or children.

    Through several internships in kindergarten, my beginning education to become a kindergarten teacher, I am familiar with children
    Last year, I traveled to Costa Rica and Denmark. I worked in a hostel, helped on a goat farm to produce Sheep-milk-products, I assisted in a preschool as a caregiver, and supported garden work on a small farm in Denmark.
    I also gained work experience in Germany, spending six months working in a small hotel in housekeeping and the kitchen.

    I can cook a bit vegetarian and like to bake cakes.
    In general, I am a very social person who cares about the well-being of others. I am happy about the gratitude, appreciation and joy of other people.
    I am a rather quiet person who does my work conscientiously and tries very hard to do everything right.
    I have a lot of patience and don't give up easily
