    Hello everyone!

    My name is Sunniva. I'm born and raised in Berlin and I finished my bachelor degree in geography and arts&crafts last summer.

    I'm a big fan of all kind of handcrafty things.

    Some of the stuff I have done so fare is ...
    ...building a (very fancy) outdoor toilet (incl. tiled roof) with a friend,
    ...building all kind off shelves out of wood,
    ...building a self-designed wooden chair,
    ...chopping lots of wood at my friends house in the weekends,
    ...sewing costumes, normal clothing and curtains,
    ...I've learn a bit about metal welding, casting metal and laser cutters,
    ...demolished a small building,
    ... installing and connecting electricity incl. switches, lights and power outlets.

    I'm also always more than happy to learn new skills and like working in teams as well as on my own.

    I have been working in architectural offices the last three years and love the job. Personally I'm especially interested in sustainable ways of building , that can contribute to living in harmony with nature and other human beings.

    I've also lead a group of 6-9 year olds for about 2 years. Together we played outside in all kind of weathers and used our hands and imagination in upcycling-projects. I also have good experience with babysitting.

    Since my parents are from Norway and Irland I'm fluent not only in German, but also Norwegian and English and I'm happy to share my language skills. I also speak a bit of French and Malagasy.

    Extras: I can cut hair, make flower crowns, love making fire and enjoy playing games a lot :)

  • What else ...

    when the dog barks, when the bee stings, when I'm feeling down, I always remember my favourite things and then I don't feel soooo saaaad. ( From The sound of Music)

    So here are a few of my favourite things:
    - sitting at the fire
    - smelling nice things (herbs, rain, perfumes, suitcases from Ireland :D )
    - sauna
    - being totally absorbed by project
    - taking pictures from interesting angels
    - singing together
    - playing capoeira (a sport/culture from brazil)
    - cuddling my parents dog
    - being with friends and family
    - using my hands to create
    - chatting with random people on the street
    - walking trough the forest
    - learning something new
    - oh and playing! I love playing! boardgames, card games, but games without cards and boards are probably my favourite (riddles, outdoor games, etc.)
    - festive events and preparing them
