Description
Hello, my name is Agnes (in short "Nessi" - like the scottish monster :)), I am 57 years old. I live with my husband in Germany, on the countryside near to Frankfurt. Our 2 sons grew up and already left home. I am a sportive, active person (I love it to be on the move in every sense) and I like people, nature and animals.
After completing my education in a business hotel, I gained experiences in several jobs like tour-operator and sale and distribution (for hotel facilities), to return finally to the most communicative places of all: the front desks of hotels. Actually I work at the reception and administration of a rest home.
Not only to safe nature and protect the climate, I try to live carefully and take my non-electric bicycle as often as possible.
I also like to work in house and (even more) in the garden and I'm not too shy for simple work either, if it makes sense. My english is not the best, but I am able to communicate acceptable and expandable. Also I speak a bit french.Interests

More details about your skills
Hi, I'm Jochen (Nickname Jo). I am actually a trained industrial clerk, so I can be a good help in this area. My self-employment has also given me a lot of knowledge and experience that I can utilise. However, as Workaway often depends on manual skills or similar: I've already done a lot of things around the house and in the garden. I'm not the best craftsman, but I'm certainly willing and able to learn. I'm also not too bad for (almost) any work and am happy to help out with things that need to be done.
Playing guitar and bass is one of my favourite hobbies. I like and play almost every kind of music (except Volksmusik, Schlager and the like, sorry guys). Reading, theatre and movies are other big interests I have. If you want to talk endlessly about films, etc.: you're very welcome.
I like to get to know different people, enjoy being outdoors (even in "bad" weather) and look forward to learning new things.Age
