  • Description

    Hey there, I‘m a German girl from a small town called Potsdam, near Berlin.

    Last year, in 2023 I graduated from Highschool and since I’ve been dreaming about traveling for years, I jumped on the opportunity and went to Canada with my best friend. So the two of us packed our bags and moved to the mountain town Banff, to spend a ski season here.
    Looking back it was the best decision I‘ve ever made and being able to have that lifestyle where little adventures are literally at your doorstep, is really amazing. I love, hiking, biking, climbing, enjoy the peace of the backcountry and sweating up the mountains in winter, too. Skiing has become one of my biggest passions and I’ve found great happiness in spending time outdoors in winter and summer.
    I would love to see more parts of the world, since I never really traveled outside of Europe and getting to know new and many cultures is definitely the biggest point on my bucket list.

  • More details about your skills

    Before I came to Canada, I never had a Job. So working as a Housekeeper in Banff Peaks Hotel, has been my first proper work experience. Therefore I had to adapt to a 9 to 5 job where I had to be, responsible, hardworking, reliable and always friendly and open minded when meeting guests or working together with your colleagues. Furthermore I would say that I can adapt to new environments pretty quick and that I am very keen on learning new skills or abilities in a short time.
    Additionally I grew up in a House with a garden, which makes gardening and housework very familiar with me, since I am not afraid to get my hands dirty.

  • What else ...

    Even though I love to spend time outside, from time to time I can be a stay at home girl, too. I adore reading and sometimes even writing on my own, playing Sims 4, watching TV Shows and simply being cozy in my bed. Poetry, history and Greek mythology are some of my biggest interests and I love spending time with my closest family and friends.
