Description
Hey there!
I'm Alicia, it's so nice to meet you!
I'm planning my first Workaway adventure, and I'm really excited. But that doesn't mean I'm an inexperienced person :) Let me tell you a little about myself:
I was born in Hong Kong, but spent most of my life in Germany. I was raised bilingually and speak English and German fluently. I hold a Cambridge C2 English and a DELE B1 Spanish certificate. I'm currently working on getting fluent in Spanish, it's this year's big goal.
I've been active in the organisation of movements (Fridays For Future), community projects (Inclusion Meets Environmentalism Wiesbaden) and tutoring since I was 14. Now that I've finished my Abitur and an internship at an NGO, I want to go out into the world and learn. You can expect me to be curious, hard-working, flexible and very happy to interact with people!
I also have a drivers' license. I enjoy reading, jogging, dancing and many more things. Check that out in the 'what else' section below :)

Irene was really great at communication when we planned my stay, the kids Violeta, Gonzales and Álvaro were so fun and exciting! We played a ton of games, both in the house and in the garden. They're also very polite and respectful kids. Bring a lot of stamina, and some good sports shoes 😄
Violeta was a wonderful girl… read more
