Description
I like physical work and love being outside. I'm now traveling to Sicily from January until April 2024. I speak Italian at an intermediate level and would like to become fluent. Of course I can also share my language knowledge with you.

So far, I've volunteered in Spain, Italy, France, Poland, Hungary and Sweden. I've also hosted people myself from France, Germany and Poland.

My dream is to discover the world and to find the country and place where I want to settle down. In the meantime I try to discover as much as possible and get to know different places, cultures, languages and people!

My love for languages started when I was 17 and went to Switzerland as an exchange student. From there on my language hobby turned into a lifestyle and today I'm a grateful member of the polyglot community.

It was my first experience with Workaway and I am looking forward to more to come. alex came with short notice but we managed quite well. he was a big help in getting the tree cuttings after the pruning of some of the olive trees from the ground and we made big fires. I wish him all the best for the next adventures he will have.

I had a great time staying with Peter and would definitely recommend a stay. His place is located in a valley and the surrounding nature is simply amazing. I had my own house and was very comfortable. The work was not too heavy and we had a great time together.
Cheers!

I'm satisfied with my stay at Giovanni's place. During my time there, among other projects I trimmed palm leaves, made firewood, made a flower bed, mowed the lawn and repaired the chainsaw. At Giovanni's place there are always projects going on and you are never bored. His house is in an awesome location, just a few hundred meters from the Santa… read more

Alex is a very nice guy, he tried to help in anything around the house although he had some previous ankle injuries so he had to lay in bed a lot and I also got sick meanwhile he stayed with us, so it was a little bit complicated to accomplish some agreed tasks. He spoke English, German to the kids, he is very interested in any languages. Actually… read more

I'm very happy with my stay and couldn't have received a better welcome to Poland. I felt like a part of the family from the first day. They are working on some really interesting projects. We also practiced a lot of languages. I really recommend volunteering at Maciek and Marlena's place!

Alex came to us with a big smile and open heart. He helped us to clean hotel rooms and was always eager to help with whatever tasks. We would have loved to host him longer. We highly recommend Alex and wish all the best for him in the future! Thank you Alex!!

I'm very happy about my stay at Sofie, Henrik and Lily's place on the beautiful island of Öland. It was a nice family environment and the work was chill and laid-back. I cleaned and prepared rooms for arriving guests. Later in June they're also gonna prepare a breakfast buffet for guests. They have their own hens and chickens so for breakfast… read more
