Description

Hi! I’m an open-minded and curious person who enjoys learning new things and living close to nature. I like being useful, getting my hands dirty, and helping out wherever needed. I feel most comfortable in environments where there is room for exchange, learning, and mutual respect.

I enjoy slow travel and discovering new places through the people who live there. For me, Workaway is about more than just helping out — it’s about sharing experiences, skills, and everyday life.

I’m reliable, calm, and adaptable, and I enjoy both working independently and being part of a team. I’m always motivated to learn from others and to contribute positively to a place during my stay.

I’m looking forward to meaningful encounters, new skills, and a good balance between work, learning, and enjoying life.

More details about your skills

I am trained as a garden and landscape architect, with a strong passion for growing food and working with nature. My biggest hobby is my vegetable garden, where I experiment every year with new seed varieties. When I travel abroad, I always look for local seeds to bring home and try out.

I have been a beekeeper for 9 years, which has given me a deep understanding of ecosystems, pollination, and sustainable food production.

In addition, I have solid hands-on experience in renovation and construction. I have personally renovated two houses, gaining skills in practical building work, problem-solving, and working independently on long-term projects.

I am also very comfortable with animals and pets. I have taken care of the animals of Swedish friends on several occasions, including daily care and responsibility while they were away.
