Description

Hey there! I'm Sarah, 23 years old, and ready for adventure! I am a student at DNS, an alternative university in Denmark where I study to be a teacher. I believe that education is a pathway to a more just and peaceful world. Connecting with fellow humans from all kinds of backgrounds and experiences has been bringing me great joy.

If I had to describe myself I would say I am optimistic, sociable and hard-working. What I love the most in life is being close to nature, surrounded by interesting people. I like to spend every free hour of my day doing sports or exploring. Lately I have been playing a lot of Volleyball and I try to practice the guitar every day. Also I am fond of playing board games.

I can contribute to workaway projects in a lot of ways. I am not necessarily a pro at construction or anything, but I pick things up fairly quickly and I will always put my soul into my work. In a previous workaway I have learnt how to build walls, disassemble kitchens, plaster walls and work with electricity wires.

I have loads of experience working with kids; I have been a nanny for eight year, I have been a teacher for four years and this summer I worked as a pedagogue for students with difficult backgrounds. Playing with kids, exploring and being creative together gives me a lot of energy.

I know quite a bit about nature and animal care. My father is a biologist and an absolute ecology nerd, and he has taught me all he knows. I love spending time with animals and taking care of them. I am not hesitant to clean up after them either. :P

I have experience with all jobs around the house. I enjoy cooking, and I get a lot of satisfaction out of cleaning as well.
