Description

Hey, my name is Svenja (the name Alina shows up because we had a couple account before and somehow I can't change the name) and I am from Germany. I’ve been planning on travelling the world after my graduation for a long time until I discovered Workaway. The concept of working for locals in another country seems like the perfect opportunity to not only get to know new people and learn about their culture, two things that fascinate me most about travelling, but also pick up new skills. I’ve been traveling Southeast Asia now for already three months and it has been one of the best experiences of my life so far. Meeting other travelers, getting to know locals and their lifestyle and culture, seeing so many beautiful places … it’s just amazing!

I am very motivated to learn new skills and do things I have never done before. No matter what, I will always put a lot of effort into my work.

I’m very open minded and always eager to learn new things. I’m also very interested in enriching my cooking skills, learning new languages and get to know more about different cultures. And of course I would love to meet new people from all around the world, since that’s just one of the best things about traveling!

More details about your skills

Since the beginning of 2022 I’m volunteering for “Kommunale Jugendarbeit”, an organisation in which I am looking after children and do adventures and trips with them. Last year for example our group of volunteers was camping with many young kids and we played a lot of games, went hiking and swimming. It is always so much fun.

After working on two farms in Thailand I have some knowledge of gardening, natural building and farming in general.

In my freetime I love trying new things so I have some skills in many different fields like knitting, drawing and Yoga.
