Description
This is Lilli from Germany, currently back there to work as a horticultural engineer for a couple of years....
Well, time flies and I'm going to be free to travel again starting in June. My life turns out to be one of sequential chapters. Next period will be discovering more of the North.

On my vaccations I cycled northern Norway in summer 2022 for a month to experience the never ending sunshine. Went back there during winter twice to see how the blue light feels like. It still kind of surprises me how much I´m loving the wilderness of the North!

Before, I traveled/workawayed through Spain for about two years and immensely enjoyed all the experiences and people I encountered along my way. How diverse it was!

I like having projects, being active and challenged, like to move forward in a quiet and enjoyable way. I enjoy being outdoors and in remote places, especially close to the sea. Love to get to know new areas of this world, their people, the surrounding nature.
The offering to share homes is a source of never ending adventure and enrichment. I´m happy to help out with what needs to be done or share stories, spaces, knowledge.
Any questions, feel free to ask.

More details about your skills
I'm a horticultural engineer and can be helpful when it comes to growing vegetables or maintaining a nice backyard.

I might be useful when it comes to construction work. Helped out in that field before and I know how to use tools. Worked on boats and in houses.

Happy to teach and practice language. I have certificates for teaching English and German.

Also, I lived with dogs and cats. I love having them around. I did dog/cat/horse sitting before or walked many shelter dogs.

I worked in the food & beverage industry for several years. My cakes are delicious, so they say:)

Lilli stayed for several weeks, so I hope she enjoyed it as much as I. She got along with my pets as well, and helped me with snow shoveling and to see to my home. I appreciated it so much to have dinner ready, and the house cleaned. During the days Lilli managed fine on her own outside mostly walking with snow shoes, and whenever I needed help to… read more

Was looking for a remote and quiet place in the wintertime and absolutely found it. Very grateful for the time I could be there. Thank you for being so generous and helpful! Fun to have the animals around, they are characters :) Fulfilling and right is how it felt to be there.

I spent a wonderful month at the place in spring. Among busy birds, soft hills, beaches and under a wild sky for always changing light. Tony is easy to be with: respectful and open. But also hard working in a very considerate way. I´m grateful for having had this opportunity.

I spend five days at the end of the year in Esthers home. When I arrived, two other workawayers were also there but left two days later. That was not communicated to me but I enjoyed their company. Also, that overlapping turned out to be very helpful. Because unfortunately, Esther had to go to the hospital the day after my arrival and they were… read more

I´ve been in that small village on top of the hill for four weeks altogether. That´s about two months ago now. What a place. The phenomenal castle has it´s own glow. To get involved with the simple life that you find at Javier´s house was challenging but so beautiful. You can be at your own pace.
We cycled to the tuesday night movies into town,… read more

I spent about two weeks in Oktober in Llerena at Fernando´s house and I absolutely recommend to stop by and stay for a bit in this wonderful small town. Had walks with the cute dog, had a warm welcome from all of his friends in town whom I met in the nicest bar. We went on a couple of trips to the surrounding towns, I saw great historic sites and… read more

I spent one week in Lucas`house, together with his girlfriend and the dogs. They were great hosts. We went on evening walks with the dogs, they took me with them when they met friends and it was fun to spent time with them. Both always made sure, that I had everything I needed. The garden is amazing, because there is such an interesting variety of… read more

I spent three weeks altogether there at this beautiful place next to the pristine river. If you are a nature lover, you sure will enjoy it there and in the summertime you can have a refreshing swim. I recommend Pablo as a host, he always made sure, that we had everything we needed and the food was great, fresh from the garden and organic.
