Description
Hey! I am Ava, a twenty year old girl from Germany. Currently I'm in my third semester of social sciences and working in a cute little sandwich shop. I enjoy being creative in any ways such as: drawing, writing poetry, making collages etc.. Nature is what brings me the most energy and inspiration. I love hiking and spending time outside, but since I am living in Cologne, a pretty big city, these things tend to come up short in my life. I love experiencing new ways of life and learning new skills. There is just so much to see out there and I am eager to live my young years to the fullest. I want to connect with new people, listen and learn from them and gain new perpectives on life.

More details about your skills
During my school time I worked at a frame shop, as a handyman and at a horse farm cleaning out boxes, feeding the horses, etc. After graduating I worked as a short-term employee for about a year to try out different work fields. I worked at trade fairs, food trucks, company parties, childcare and much more. When I started studying I started working at a sandwich shop where I engage with our customers, prepare food, clean, operate the cash register, etc.
Generally I am very open to learn new things, I have no problem with hard work or getting my hands dirty. Actually I enjoy working with my hands since you kind of start to loose your connection to nature and real work when you are studying. I love being creative (painting, mosaic,...) and caring for others (animals, humans and plants).Age

Diogo is a really warm and open minded person. It was always interesting to listen to him and he was also interested in what all of us had to say. All the other volunteers were great people and Martin took good care of us. The atmosphere was… read more
