    Travelling

  • Description

    Hello everyone,

    my name is Viola, I am 28 years old and I graduated with a Bachelor's degree in Social Work in 2023. After working with children and young people, I finally realised my dream and went traveling.
    During my time in Australia and New Zealand, I was traveling around and worked on Farms, supported families in their day to day life and worked as a housekeeper and Allrounder in different hostels.
    For my next adventure I was planning on traveling to Canada to get to know more likeminded people and new ways of life, gain more experience in farming and gardening and escape from the everyday world and develop myself further.

    I was born and grew up in Lilienthal, a small town near Bremen in Germany. I lived there with my parents and two sisters until I was 20 years old. I am a family person and thanks to them I learned to be strong and to be considerate of others. They also gave me my creativity and the ability to get the positive out of situations.

    I also bring something to the table as a person: I am a positive, easy going, open and fun-loving person, I love to dance and do sports, playing ukulele, draw, do handicrafts, read, cook and eat ;). I also spend a lot of time out and about with friends and concentrate on myself during quiet meditations.
    My love of animals is also very important to me. That's why I'm vegan, but I'm not averse to working on farms where animals are kept in a respectful way.

    I am looking forward to helping out in the houses and on your farms, building something, helping out and showing you a part of my world. I am also interested in getting to know the different places and the diversity of the people and also improving my language skills.

    I would be very happy to hear back about my request! And who knows, maybe we'll see each other very soon!

    Kind regards
    Viola

  • More details about your skills

    First of all, I am a person who is not above getting my hands dirty. I can take on manual tasks (painting, building, repairing) and would say that I have a green thumb :). Unfortunately I don't have my own garden but I have the ability to pick up knowledge quickly.
    I love working in housekeeping, reception and in hostels, communities or similar as a Allrounder.
    I have a bachelor's degree in social work and completed a voluntary social year. I also worked as a babysitter and personal assistant for a boy with a visual impairment in a crèche.
    Finally, I gained professional experience in the catering industry.
    During my trip, I would love to work in different sectors on farms, hostels and communities!
    I would describe myself as solution-oriented, organized, responsible and inquisitive so that I can quickly adapt to new tasks.
