More details about your skills

I can support you in different tasks like farming/gardening, kitchen, education or evaluation/research based on my experiences.
Or learn a completly new task :)

My longest volunteering experience was in a working community in Sweden for a few month. I mostly worked in the kitchen and dishes and found out that I also love serving the food.

I have volunteering experience in farming and nature conservation: I've volunteered at farms in Nepal (mostly coffee and tee), Thailand and in projects in Germany and Austria related to forest/farmland or moorland renaturalization.
At home I have a shared garden with friends. So I have little (organic) gardening/planting experience and also love being in contact with the soil and the plants.
In my shared flat at home we get our vegetables from community-supported agriculture where we helped at the farm as well.

I have little experience in helping with construction as I volunteered a few times in a festival place where we built the entrance, helped monks building a Buddha statue and other little construction work.

I have knowledge in education and evaluation:
In my former job at the university I was responsible for different (social pharmacy) research projects and education. I also have a bit of knowledge in pharmacology and toxicology of herbs and spices due to my pharmacy education.

Sustainability is an important aspect to me for many years and I try to learn more, how to integrate that in my life and how to teach.

In October 2024 I did a 4weeks training in traditional Ayurvedic massages and massage therapies, and in February 2025 in Thai massages, which I love to share as well.

Age

42

What else ...

love dancing, singing, swimming, beeing and sleeping outside, love festivals (yoga and electronic dance), walking, biking, canoeing, in a Buddhist sangha (Plum village Tradition, western Buddhism).

The last few years I did mostly long-distance hikes (6-10weeks) or bike-packing trips in Europe with camping on my own. I am connected to nature and being outside and want to save nature as much as I can.
