  • More details about your skills

    Many years ago, I studied animal care and husbandry. I worked as a veterinary assistant and in a pet shop. I also completed internships at animal boarding houses, horse farms, and riding schools. In my current job as an agricultural subsidy inspector, I arranged a year-long sabbatical to fulfill my dream of traveling. I've already visited quite a few countries. With our self-constructed campervan, we've traveled to Turkey, Georgia, Greece, Albania, Italy, and Norway. We've also flown to Japan, Hong Kong, and Lombok. I spent a month hiking solo along the Turkish coast (Lycian Way) and went to Rwanda and Uganda with my sister (self-drive).
    I would love to be able to contribute to those who could really use my help. I enjoy being physically active with a bit of rest so now and then. I prefer to work with or nearby animals and be part of the daily work routine so i can experience a other livestyle.
