Hi there!
My name is Shali, I’m 26 years old, from Germany and currently traveling as part of a Work and Travel experience. I used to work as a civil engineer, but I’ve always had a deep curiosity for other fields and lifestyles. That’s why I’m now taking the opportunity to explore new areas of work, meet different people, and learn by doing.
I love trying out new things and stepping out of my comfort zone. Whether it’s helping around the house, working in a garden, or assisting with creative or manual projects – I’m always eager to contribute and give my best.
People often describe me as outgoing, friendly, and very helpful. I approach challenges and unfamiliar situations with a positive mindset and a willingness to grow. I believe every new experience teaches you something valuable – and I’m here to learn!
One of my goals during this journey is also to improve my English, so I’m especially grateful for any opportunity that helps me practice and develop my language skills in everyday situations.
Looking forward to connecting with hosts, sharing great conversations, and helping out wherever I can! 😊Interests

More details about your skills
I’m an organized and ambitious person who enjoys working both independently and as part of a team. Thanks to my background in civil engineering, I bring a strong sense of structure, problem-solving, and responsibility to any task.
I’m reliable, hard-working, and not afraid of physical or hands-on work. I adapt quickly to new environments, stay calm under pressure, and enjoy finding practical solutions when challenges arise.
Team spirit is very important to me – I’m always happy to support others and contribute to a positive, respectful working atmosphere. I also take pride in being punctual, proactive, and open-minded, and I’m always ready to learn something new.Age

What else ...
I’ve been dancing in a Jazz and Modern/Contemporary dance team for over 20 years – it’s a big part of who I am and has taught me a lot about teamwork, discipline, and expressing myself creatively.
In my free time, I love photography, especially capturing natural light and small moments. I’m also a passionate reader and enjoy writing my own texts, stories, or thoughts when inspiration strikes.
I really enjoy DIY projects – whether it’s decorating, crafting, or fixing up small things, I love being hands-on and creative.
I’m always curious, love learning from others, and enjoy sharing experiences and ideas.Some more information
