I love the nature. I love to be outdoors, back to the roots, love physical work and love animals.

Description

It was a couple of years ago that I discovered my love for Sweden. Since then, I have visited as often as I can and even spent sabbaticals working there in recent winters. I am an active person who likes to stay busy and be outdoors, regardless of the weather. I thrive on social interaction and value meaningful exchanges. However, I am also very well comfortable spending time alone.

In my job in Germany, I worked as an executive secretary. My two adult children have gone off on their own journeys. My son lives in Australia. And my daughter lives nearby with her partner. Together with her horse they are my closest companions. - I left my job at the end of February (after 15 years) because I want to pursue new opportunities. This gives me a lot of free time the next few months, which I don't want to spend at home, but rather making myself useful.

My hobbies have always been sports and nature, and for the last few years I have also been learning Swedish. Jag lyssnar på poddar, läser böcker, tittar på filmer... Men det svåraste är att tala själv. Därför är jag tacksam för möjligheterna att göra det.

More details about your skills

I thrive on keeping busy, especially outdoors. I enjoy taking on tasks independently and have some experience in the outdoors. I am resilient and always willing to pitch in. In my spare time I like to explore using wild herbs for cooking and health. While I am capable of office work, my true passion lies in manual labour. Growing up on a farm gave me a strong workethic and a love for animals.

Having had a German Shepherd for many years, I understand the importance of loving and cuddling animals while being clear and consistent. I have a natural connection with animals and have already helped in a kennel.

I have also done house sitting, several pet sittings and service work during my recent stays in Sweden. I think I'm an all-rounder who can see what needs to be done, and I am "prestigelös" (a wonderful Swedish word) and fit. I love to help and believe I have a lot to share through my experience and energy.

What else ...

I value honesty, respect, lightness and joy of life. So, despite all the work, I appreciate a good mood and humour in everyday life. 😉
