Description

Hi there!
My name is Sofie, I am from Denmark and currently spending some months in Spain travelling and learning Spanish :) I'd love to connect with locals or other travellers while I am here! I'd also be very happy to get opportunities to practice my Spanish - I am a beginner (A1) and currently taking language classes in San Sebastian until the 8th of November, but I would love to practice even more with people I meet during my travels!

About me, I enjoy hiking and being in nature (currently learning to surf as well) and cultural experiences such as visiting museums and historical sites. I am currently studying at masters degree in global development studies and I have experience working in NGOs focusing on human rights, sustainable development and nature conservation, so the environment and sustainability lies close to my heart.

I am a creative person and love drawing, painting, reading and writing. I am also a huge animal-lover and have a lot of experiences looking after animals (both cats, dogs and farm animals). I've done many home-stays and farm-stays around the world both through workaway and self arranged, so I am very used to communal living and being respectful and considerate. I am a quick learner, always eager to learn new skills, and I adapt easily to new situations and people. To me, kind, honest and open-minded communication is key. I am an empath (hsp), and both really enjoy meaningful connections and quiet time to recharge.

Thanks for reading about me, I hope our paths will cross :)

More details about your skills

I am a master student in Global Development and I have skills in project management, writing grant applications, volunteer engagement, social media management and developing projects in the field of sustainable development. I would love to get more hands-on experience in eco-projects, reforestation and sustainable development. I have an international degree and have lived abroad many times, so my written and spoken English is fluent.

I also enjoy physical work and have worked both in retail, hotels, cleaning firms, and on farms. I have no problem doing physical labour and getting my hands dirty! I am always eager to learn new things and do the best that I can in everything I do. I am up for the challenge!

I had such a wonderful time staying with Hattie and Jamie! They are the kindest, most caring, and fun people to be around, and it really just felt like staying with good friends. I was with them for 3 weeks, and they made me feel so at home from the second I arrived. They are amazing hosts and super easy-going, great at communicating, and always … read more

What a swettie Sofie is. From the moment she walked in the door she was such a warm, funny and very helpful person. She fitted into my home beautifully. She was keen to throw herself into anything asked. My animals were so well looked after and got really spoilt . If you are looking for someone who is very easy to get along with, who has a big … read more

I had a wonderful time with Lozz and the animals. I wish I could have stayed longer because I enjoyed every second. Lozz is loving, happy and such a nice human being. She makes you feel at home the moment you walk in the door. Thank you for some great conversations and really good meals and vegetarian cooking lessons. I enjoyed the work a lot … read more
