Description
Hello dears,
I'm Gina, soon to be 29 years old, from Germany and started my world trip on 19/01/22.
I want to be on the road as long as possible to get to know the country, the cultures and the people as well as possible, so I am always looking for great places to work and live from time to time. I love animals, nature and always like to discover new things.

So far I've been to Tanzania, South Africa, Sri Lanka, Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia, India, Vietnam, Laos, Thailand, Philippines and now I'm in Australia to explore the country with my own car and work from time to time.

Thanks to Workaway, I was able to gain many different volunteer experiences: For example, I have worked at a guest and horse safari farm in South Africa, at an animal shelter in Sri Lanka, at a water sports center and hostel in Malaysia, at a farm with horses in Laos and currently I am helping out at an animal shelter in Malapascua in the Philippines.

My time at the shelter couldn't have been better. Originally I was only going to stay for a month, but then I even cancelled my flight to Australia to stay with the animals, Joe and Cristina, for another month.

When I arrived at the shelter, I learned that the original founders had decided to close the shelter, which would have meant that all the… read more

Gina is another super great lady with lots of good positive energy & work ethic to contribute ! As she described her daily work during her stay, she missed to mention all the extra tasks she willingly helped with- like sign writing and scrub clearing. Gina is very enthusiastic and keen to get into her routine and workaway jobs! I would recommend… read more

I spent three wonderful weeks in Vang Vieng. My job was mostly to take care of the ponies, do pony rides with children and keep the stable, paddock and equipment clean. I went to breakfast at 7am five days a week and started my work at 7:30am. I finished at 12:30 and had lunch together with all the volunteers at 1pm. The rest of the day was free… read more

I spent seven weeks on the guest farm of Marie, Olaf and their three children and had an incredibly wonderful time here. My work consisted of working with the many great animals on the farm and helping in the garden. So most mornings I got up, fed the animals, worked with the horses (including rides to see the giraffes and zebras among other… read more

Left by Workawayer (Gina) for host (Enjoy Watersports; Team ...)

I spent four weeks at the Outdoors and it was incredibly wonderful. Especially because we were such a great volunteer group. Working with the other volunteers and all the staff was so much fun. I was able to go on a jetski, try out wakeboarding and do several towing rides. However, it can also happen that on some days you just stand behind the… read more

Gina proved to be a great asset to us in the time that she spent with us. She is smart and professional, but also good fun, and was popular with our local staff as well as the other workaways that we had here during her visit.
We were in a period of change, with lots of new staff joining us, and she helped us during that period. She was happy to… read more

I spent three wonderful weeks with Conny, her team and the animals.
Conny has a property with currently 13 dogs and 6 cats around which we took care daily. That means feeding, cleaning, playing, walking and of course a lot of cuddling! I had my own room. There are two rooms for Volunteers available. The bathroom is shared. Ten minutes walk from… read more
