Description

Hi,

I travelled around the world in a gap year. I worked on an organic farm in Canada for three months and travelled the US and New Zealand, going hiking with friends or staying on beef cattle or horse trekking farms. I've explored Outback Australia and parts of Southeast Asia.
I want to see new places AND get in touch with locals- that's why I do workaway, apart from the endless opportunities to learn, about farming, about culture, about life.

I´m more of a creative person. I like to knit and sew and I also love sports. In my free time I go horse riding, swimming, biking, hiking, climbing,... I play the cello and I enjoy baking bread and baguette. I'd like to spend more time on farms as I enjoy working around animals and because it is fulfilling work.

Last year I trained to be a paramedic assistant ('Rettungssanitäterin') and I work as an ambulance driver a couple of times per month.

More details about your skills

I am experienced with animals, I have worked around sheep, pigs, ducks, geese, chickens, horses, dogs and cats. I am used to feeding and watering animals, mucking out, fencing. I learned how to milk sheep.
I have been doing horse sports for several years (riding, vaulting).
I did some garden work (weeding, watering). Wherever I´m familiar with the local flora, I gather herbs and use them for cooking/ baking. I also love picking fruit.
My knowledge in the kitchen is limited, I do everything that has to do with baking (bread, cake, baguette/croissants, pizza,..) and cook basic meals for myself. I´ve got some experience cooking on multi-day-hikes.
Last year I painted my room and put up a new shelf.
I have my own (private) blog on Instagram where I post photos and write longer texts, also basic skills with Microsoft Office, video cutting, photography (landscapes; close-ups of animals and humans ;-)...
I am also very eager to try and learn new things!
