Description

Hello everyone :)

We are Selina (30) and Jamaine (31) from Germany, and we have currently been travelling through Asia together for the past nine months. In June, we will start our Work & Travel journey in Australia, and we are very excited to meet new people, learn new things, support where we can and experience different ways of living.

We are both physiotherapists and also have a background in humanistic psychotherapy, which deepened our interest in personal growth, mindfulness, inner work and the connection between body and mind.

We are both very active people and love movement, sports and spending time in nature. Jamaine especially enjoys martial arts and has many years of experience in Wing Chun and kickboxing, while Selina loves yoga, hiking and conscious movement. Nature, silence and a simple lifestyle are very important to both of us.

We are very curious and open-minded people who genuinely enjoy learning, cultural exchange and connecting with locals and communities. We are also interested in permaculture, sustainable living and alternative ways of living, as we dream of creating our own community-oriented project in Europe one day.

Friends would probably describe us as calm, warm-hearted, reliable and easy-going people who enjoy meaningful conversations, shared experiences and becoming part of a community for a while.

We're always happy to learn new things, support where I can and share experiences with others along the way.

More details about your skills

Through our professional and personal experiences, we both developed strong communication skills, empathy and the ability to connect easily with different kinds of people. As physiotherapists, we are used to working closely with people, adapting quickly to new situations and supporting others in a calm and responsible way.

Selina gained early volunteering and travel experience during a Work & Travel stay in New Zealand, where she worked on apple farms, in an apple packhouse and joined different WWOOFing experiences involving gardening, farm work and community living. She also completed a voluntary social year in psychiatry and later assisted a training in humanistic psychotherapy for around two and a half years, supporting group and individual processes.

Jamaine is a very structured, attentive and reliable person who is good at organizing, planning and seeing where support is needed. She has experience working with children, people with disabilities and in customer service.

We both grew up with pets and have always had a very loving and natural connection to animals. We genuinely enjoy being around animals and feel very comfortable caring for them and spending time with them.

We both enjoy practical tasks like gardening, painting, decorating and creating cozy spaces. Through hospitality work, volunteering and travelling, we learned to work well in teams, communicate openly and adapt easily to different environments and communities.
