Description

Hey,
we are Niklas and Elena, who grew up in a rural region of Germany.
Elena was born in May 2005 and Niklas in December 2005, so we are currently still 19 years old. We want to gain new experiences together and get to know another part of the world.

We have been surrounded by animals since we were children. We always had pets at home - including cats, dogs, rabbits, ducks, chickens and quails. Our love for animals has been with us all our lives.

We share a special hobby: horse riding. Elena has been in the saddle since she was five years old, and two years ago Niklas also discovered this passion for himself. We spend a lot of time together in the stables, helping with the hay harvest, building paddocks and, above all, looking after the horses.

Currently we are about to pass our A-levels. During lesson at school, we only have the opportunity to spend the whole day outside during the holidays. Therefore we would like to use the time after our A-levels to pursue our passion for animals and nature more intensively.

At the same time, we are curious about new experiences and cultures. We love getting to know people, learning from them and expanding our knowledge. Everyone has her or his own tricks and methods - and we are excited to experience everyday life on a farm outside Germany. We want to combine our enthusiasm for animals and nature while discovering the world.

More details about your skills

As mentioned above our passion is to deal with animals. We're not shy, no matter how big or small the animal is, and we get on really well with them. We are also familiar with country life and know what it means to lend a hand with a wide variety of tasks - no matter if it is in the household, in the garden, in the stable or in the forest.

We are both busy in our free time: Elena works as a waitress and Niklas regularly works as a bartender. He is also employed in a shop as a warehouse clerk. During the holidays, he often worked at a constructionsite, where he learnt a lot of manual skills. It is important to us to be hard-working and to treat others with respect.

Thanks to our large families, we also have a lot of experience in dealing with children and know how important responsibility is. We enjoy socialising and are real team players.

We also both have a European driving licence. Elena also has a category BE driving licence, which allows her to tow trailers of up to 3.5 tonnes. This gives us the freedom to transport larger things if necessary!
