Description
Hey, I'm Hannah (18) from a village in germany, graduated highschool this summer and going to travel costa rica for about two months, starting in the end of january. Afterwards I'm going to ecuador for the same amount of time.

My biggest motivation is that almost every skill can be learned. Means that whatever one aspires can be learned even thought someone isn’t able to do so yet. I really enjoy experiencing and learning about new things. No matter if it’s about music, maths, nature, etc. I love to gain new knowledge!

More details about your skills
If I wrote you I definitely think I can do the work you require! I love learning new skills and think you can master every skill if you but your mind to it (and effort). Anyway the experience I already have is working in a construction and selling juice in a booth. I'm fluent in german and english and want to improve the little spanish I know! Besides that have I decent skills in technology like words, excel, etc..

What else ...
I’ve played the clarinet for 10 years and flute when I was very little. I enjoy music and love pets! I have one cat and used to have a dog too. Netherless I love all kinds of animals. I also really enjoy gaining new knowledge in themes about science and generally new things. I am generally open to anything and am good in adapting.

Left by host (Immerse in nature and ...) for Workawayer ()

Hannah is a very kind person. Being only 18 years old she, is brave enough to travel solo through several countries! Amazing! I have so much respect for her!

She is very shy and quiet. English is not her first language but she is very fluent.

I told her how rugged the conditions were ahead of time on a whatapp chat BEFORE she even arrived and… read more she assured me she was up to the tasks. But sadly, she wasn't. #redacted text#

We experienced many mis-communications;

1. She had told me she was going to stay until March 14, but left suddenly, unexpectedly and without a word to me about it after I literally asked her the day before how long she had planned to stay. She left the next morning in the dark, super early, knowing I wouldn't be awake yet. Then she left me a text message saying how terrible she knew it was to leave in such a way. I can understand that it can be hard speaking to adults when its uncomfortable, as a teen ager. However, I was once 18 and can understand. We exchanged texts and she says she is working on her communication skills.

2. One night, it rained really hard, so I called her on the phone to ask her to move her tent or at least her bedding into the casita where she could spend the night so she and her camping gear wouldn't get wet.
I asked her if she needed my help moving things but she told me she would do it herself. The next day, she had left everything out in the rain! Her bedding was all wet! It as a brand new mattress. When I asked her why she did that, she didn't have an answer.

3. When she first arrived, I had given her a choice of where she wanted to move the tent I provided for her. From past experience, I've learned that people like to camp in different places. She chose to leave her tent where it was, by the casita. Then, in her exit text, she told me she wasn't comfortable because she felt there wasn't enough space between work and personal time! I don't understand this. She had ALL the DAY TIME to herself as we only worked in the mornings! This also could have been easily remediated with a simple conversation.

4. She asked me how to dispose of her human waste from the dry toilet. I explained to her. When I cleaned up after her the day she left, I realized she left the bucket COMPLETELY FULL, almost to overflowing! So I had to dispose of her waste AND wash the dirty dishes she left in he sink the day she left.

I feel like she didn't respect me or my project here and treated it more like a hotel and me as her maid.
I don't want this review to seem harsh. I just want future hosts to know what to expect.

Thank you, Hannah, for the help you offered me while you were here.
