Description

Hello dear host!

My name is Sara, I’m a 22-year-old Finnish (¼ German) woman who loves learning through hands-on work, nature, and friends. I speak Finnish and English fluently and a little German.

I’m happy to help with cooking, cleaning, outdoor work, creative tasks, and everyday help around the place.I just like to feel useful where i am. :)

I have some experience with animals (cats,dogs, chickens and a little bit with ponies) and would love to learn more, as well as to learn gardening, herbs, eco-building,

Id love to also learn boat building/maintance or sailing skills.

I grew up living in a forest in a national park, which gave me a connection to nature since childhood.

I also like being part of a community and working together.

I’ve volunteered and traveled around Europe by hitchhiking solo and with my friends. We lived simply while backpacking.

In Finland i have mostly worked on construction site, doing lighter cleaning jobs.


I’m currently studying at a circus school in Finland, the school prepares to become a professional circus artist (or they say ”Circus-soldier” :D and graduating in 2027). I’m free to travel during summers for shorter periods. I can already teach a bit of basic circus skills, tight wire balancing and aerial acrobatics. Here I am also learning what it is like to create a bigger production and its diferent stages.

I enjoy working outdoors, especially in groups with funny people. I also love painting, drawing, and making things with my hands.

I have ADHD, so I work best with a clear rhythm, enough rest and food, and calm communication. When focused, I can work deeply and for long periods. I love to move my body a lot during the day. It keeps my mind better organized and happy!

Unfortunately, due to IBS I have to follow quite a complicated diet: I don’t eat gluten, dairy products, beans, or similar foods. However, if there are bananas, oranges, rice, potatoes, oats, and soy or eggs, I should be fine. I’m very happy to cook separately for myself or for others — I just like to get comfortable in your kitchen first.

I don’t drink or use substances, and I enjoy genuine connections. I may be a bit shy at first, but I’m social and warm once settled in.

If you feel I could be a good fit for your place, I’d be happy to hear from you and learn more about your daily life!! :-)

More details about your skills

I know something about cooking, but my repertuar could be wider. I'm currently interested in learning medicinal plants.

I like to work on a farm. I have experience on a small farm.

love arts! I'm getting back to aerial acrobatics after a 7 years of break, and I can teach what I know about acrobatics.

I have previous work experience on a construction site, in a circus (trapeze artist), and as a leader at a children’s nature camp. I have also been part of many different art programs, camps and in festival organizing and customer service. Also street performances we can make happen.
