Description
Hello! My name is Carla and I live in a city in northern Germany. My friends describe me as outgoing, fun but also kind and sensitive. I currently work at a sports club and do gymnastics with kids. I love working with children and see them achieve new accomlishments. I am also a very active person. I have been playing football since i was eight years old and I still love it! I also work out at the gym three times a week to stay fit.

I want to travel to widen my horizen and to explore other cultures and the way other people live. I will graduate in June and take a gap year. I want to take this opportunity to travel to Canada and Ireland and explore these countries.

I am willing to help with the househould, in the garden and I can also help with childcare. I also love to do crafts and can help with that. Additionally, I love learning new things and am would be open if you can teach me something new.

I speak fluent German and English. I also learned a bit French in school but I am still on a beginner level.

I am looking forward to my journey and would love to be your guest.
See you then! Carla :D

Carla was a pleasure to host! She fit into our home and lifestyle immediately. She was always kind and very polite. Carla has a fantastic sense of humor and could take it as well as she could dish it out (respectfully). We all got along so well from the very beginning. She was easy to feed and ate whatever I served, gratefully.

I got to stay with Carol and Trevor for about two months, from the beginning of September until the beginning of November. The moment I got there, I felt very welcomed and comfortable in their home which quickly became my home too.
They are both very funny and we laughed a lot together. I am very lucky and grateful I got to stay with… read more them.
Throughout my stay I did all different types of tasks outside on the property. I cut the blackberry bushes, did weed eating, blew the driveway, mowed the lawn and things like that. My favorite job to do was stacking the firewood, it was almost a bit meditative. From time to time I also helped feeding the pets, who always acted like they were starving, which they weren’t at all.
In those two months I was also able to improve my English and I am glad I got to expand my vocabulary.
I also went on lots of walks with Carol and the awesome dogs Guiness and Gidget. The nature is beautiful and calming and the forests look very mystical.
One day, Trevor took me for a ride in his logging truck which I really enjoyed. We watched the sunrise in the morning and seeing the beautiful landscape of Vancouver Island from another point of view was really nice.
Carol and Trevor also showed me around the area and we often went to the market on Saturdays. When we took Guiness, people were always commenting on how the dog is as big as a horse, which was pretty funny.
Moreover, I spent a lot of time with the cats, the sweetest ones I have ever seen. They were always around and super affectionate.
Besides that, I got to eat all different kinds of delicious food. Everyday around lunchtime I was already excited for dinner. Carol is an amazing cook and always put in so much effort. I also had lots desert and cookies, which Carol brought home from work.
I also really enjoyed having ice cream with Trevor while watching movies together. Generally, I was very well fed throughout my stay :D
Additionally, I got to experience my first ever Thanksgiving and it was very interesting to see this part of the Canadian culture. It was a really nice and fun evening and I will surely remember that for a long time.
Overall, I had a lovely time with Carol and Trevor. I really enjoyed the family atmosphere and just spending time with them and I had a lot of fun. I always felt cared for and if there was anything I needed, I knew they were always there to help.
I will surely miss y’all!
