Description
Hey! We're Elisa and Toni from Germany. We're planning on travelling through Norway/ Sweden during August 2026 and working along the way. During our travels, we'd like to work shorter stays (around a week or shorter) and get to know new people/ ways of living. A bit more about us:
I'm Elisa, 20 and from Germany. I finished my education and after taking a gap year in 2025 I volunteered for a year at my local elementary school. This september I'll start an apprenticeship as carpenter back home and I want to travel a bit more before that starts. During my gap year I already went to Norway for 6 months and worked for basically the whole time I was there. While I was in Norway, I worked mostly on Farms, caring for a wide variety of animals, but also using machinery, e.g. tractors chainsaws etc. I also cared for children and did chores around the house, so I'm experienced with a lot of work already and open to learning new things! I'm a pretty outdoorsy person as I've done horseriding for almost my entire live and I just enjoy being/ working outside in general. I also enjoy doing most types of handywork. Some more of my hobbies include all types of crafty pastimes like baking, knitting, crocheting and drawing etc. I also play several types of the recorder and I'm a part of an orchestra in my hometown. In the winter I very much enjoy skiing and snowboarding although I'm only a beginner snowboarder. I am mostly vegan but will cook for myself if that's something that's a no-go for you. Throughout my life I've always enjoyed learning new languages and skills so I'm happy to pick up on whatever you can teach me :)
Hey, my name is Toni and me and my partner Elisa wanna see the world together before we start our apprenticeship in September. I'm currently 18 years old and just finished school. I have a fully trained service dog that accompanies me everywhere. She's the best dog I could've ever imagined. Our travel goals are Sweden and Norway. I love being outside and enjoying nature more than anything.
Since I'm vegan, it'd be great if you'd have something vegan to eat, but i can definitely cook for myself if it would be too inconvenient for you.
I love animals with my whole heart and enjoy their company. I do a lot of dogsports, such as obedience, agility and sometimes protection work. I also train dogs for friends and family, but i love to help everyone who struggles with their dog or just wants some support. I enjoy horseriding and working with horses a lot and I've got three horses i take care of (not my own tho). I play the piano, guitar, bass and started playing saxophone. in general music means a lot to me.
I'm about to learn carpenter, so I like to do handywork. I'd love to help you with all the tasks you need help with and I'm open to learning a lot of new stuff. -
