Travel information

I am currently

Description

Hi there! My name is Jan, I’m 24 years old, and I’m currently in Canada on a Work & Travel adventure. I’m a Media and Communication Management student from Germany with a strong passion for exploring the world, meeting new people, and making meaningful connections.

I’m vegan and deeply care about environmental sustainability. I’m also passionate about feminist and queer issues, as I believe in creating an inclusive and equitable world for everyone.

Before starting my studies, I completed a commercial apprenticeship, which gave me valuable organizational and teamwork skills. I’m fluent in both English and German, which helps me communicate effectively in diverse environments.

I’m open-minded, adaptable, and eager to lend a helping hand wherever needed. Whether it’s assisting with projects, learning new skills, or contributing to your daily tasks, I’m excited to bring my enthusiasm and positive energy to your family or community.

Looking forward to connecting and learning from this amazing experience!
