  • Description

    I grew up in a big family in the countryside. I'm happy to have 3 nieces and 3 nephews to make fun with them. So I would say I'm a real family person.

    I love hiking, outdoor activities, all ways of dancing, singing, being surrounded by nature and animals. I'm a big fan of live music and enjoy going to concerts.

    In the past I lived in shared houses as well as for my own.

    I'm happy to have the opportunity to do a work & travel and I'm curious to explore Canada and the Canadian way of life. I'm curious about all aspects of running a farm and I'm happy to help.

    I would love to learn beekeeping, if this is possible.

    More details about my language interests
    I would love to improve my English and learn French. I started learning with an app, but it's hard without proper conversation. I also started learning Irish and who knows maybe there are some Irish speaking people outside :)

  • More details about your skills

    I'm a social worker and open-minded to meet new people.
    I'm willing to help, have a hands-on mentality and I'm curious about learning new skills.

    I'm used to handle horses - I have ridden (just for fun and love for horses) and cleaned out the stables nearly every weekend and holidays in my childhood.
    I used to take care of animals: dogs, rabbits, horses, birds.
    I live on my own so I'm able to cook, bake and doing the household. My nieces and nephews would recommend my crêpes and cheese cake.

    I love old furniture - so in the past I sanded off two cupboard, chairs and a table. Some of them I painted with colors, some others just became a bit of wood oil.

    36

  • What else ...

    Fun fact:
    If there's a river or a lake surrounded by beautiful nature, I have to swim in it.
    I lived one year in Northern Ireland and I'm really in love with Irish folk music and Irish set dance.
