Description
I'm here to have a great time and learn about other cultures. I'm a math major but took a short break from my studies to come here and help out where ever and learn whatever I can. I won't shy away from hard labor, but using my head is my speciality. My english is pretty good, but sometimes I stutter a little to find the right words. I'm overall friendly and outgoing but most importantly am a sucker for pets.
I have some experience with gardening because my grandma used to let me work in hers.

It's my first time traveling this far and I hope I can make many great memories with everyone here :)

More details about your skills
I'm a student of mathematics but that doesn't mean I wont know how to use my hands. I have experience as a Waiter, Pizza baker and was once a Delivery driver. In addition to that I have experience in teaching mathematics up to base University level and am willing to put it to good use. Also I have at one point studied IT but that didn't go so well, which means I'm fairly good with technics, but not extraordinarly. First and foremost I'm good at gathering information for an upcoming task and wont stop until I've done it perfectly. I'm a quick learner, so even though I lack a lot of skills regarding farming or maintainance of technic, there is nothing I wont be able to learn.
Age
24
What else ...
My other hobbies are Volleyball, Waterskiing and I have more hours in a certain card game (Dominion) I'd like to admit. All in all I love board games. Other than that it's the usual going out with friends, play games from time to time and spending time with my fiancee, but my studies wont allow for more or else I would not be sleeping.
In perticular it's the strangest questions that peak my interest and on which I can and will philosophize on. Other than that I'm the go happy, go lucky type and pretty laid back.

Patrick was only one week with us, which is not really enough to get into the groove of understanding how to support us. The tasks done were helpful.

My stay with Marian, Jan and Bella was fantastic. I felt welcomed the second I stepped into their home. They were upfront with me since the beginning to make our short time together as comfortable as possible for both of us.

Enter as strangers leave as friends! This is the motto Leah is welcoming her workawayer with. It's amazing to me what kind of stories she had and never would have expected how many there were. We constantly had a good conversation and she introduced me to another workawayer whom I grew quite close in the short time we were together. Leah is on of… read more

Patrick is a real character who has a vivacious joy of life. It has been my pleasure to have him in my home for a few days helping on my property. He broke the handles of two garden forks but took no time at all to solve the problem of fixing them. He liked using battery operated tools and did not have to be prompted to see tasks to be done.

Amanda and Steve were a great first stay for a new workawayer such as myself. Food was great, work was entertaining and most important they valued my privacy but that didn't mean I weren't nearly every dinner with them. Honestly I had a blast staying, working (probably learnt more about fencing than I could ever have back in Germany) and gaining a… read more

Patrick stayed with us for 2 weeks to help clean up after a flood we had on our farm. He was doing super hard work and he handled it like a superstar! He got on really well with the other workers. I would highly recommend Patrick to anyone looking for a helper.
