Description
Helloo there! :)
My name is Julia, I love seeking adventures, being outdoors and trying new things!
In February and March I want to escape the grey weather and find a meaningful project I can contribute to. I am pretty much interested in all kinds of work and learning new skills! I like eco projects, doing farm work, working with kids, or hostel work. I´d love to learn more about building too.
I´ve been using Workaway a lot over the past couple of years and it´s been some of my favourite experiences! The places I´ve been to, the projects I was part of and most importantly the people I shared this time with, have broadened my horizon immensely and taught me so much about life and perspective. I´m so excited to make some more memories and connect with cool people along the way!

More details about your skills
I have some experience with organic agriculture as I have worked on multiple farms before and have helped out at an urban agriculture project in my city.
I have lots of experience working with kids as I have been babysitting and tutoring for many years. I am also a TEFL certified English teacher, I have given beginners English classes in different countries and have been teaching German to migrant women in Austria.
In recent workaways I have done pretty much all kinds of random handy work, from small repairs to carpentry to painting. I would say I am a quick learner and I am always very interested in learning new things. I´d love to learn more about construction and carpentry.
I am always happy with any task and have no problem with getting my hands dirty!

Julia just spent 3 weeks with us and it was a joy to share time with her. She demonstrated her intelligence, ability to work well in a team and with autonomy. She was enthusiastic, creative, willing to get 'stuck in' and embraced the experience with a great positive attitude. She not only partook in everything that we needed to accomplish, but… read more

I spent 3 weeks at this project and it was a wonderful experience! It is quite remote, in the most beautiful valley surrounded by lush green mountains. It's really a special place with incredible bird concerts, starry skies and an abundance of orange trees. There are multiple hosts taking care of the project that take turns being on site and they… read more

I had a great time staying at this farm for two weeks. Torbjörn is an amazing host who is always making sure that the volunteers are having a good time, he gave us varied tasks so it wouldn’t get boring and had many fun and interesting conversations with us.
My tasks were planting, weeding, harvesting, making plant sticklings, removing fences and… read more

Julia is a strong contender for MVP of the winter 2020 intake at the barracks! Always cheerful, willing and helpful, she was a major player in two transformative projects, and I hope she can come back in the summer to enjoy a completely different experience here (not freezing assess off!), to see how her new piggie-food bed is coming along, and… read more

I had a great experience staying at the barracks for two weeks!
Ben was an awesome host who has a lot of ideas and visions for the place. Living with the other Workawayers was always a lot of fun and we spent a lot of time together playing cards, watching movies or having bonfires.
The tasks we had were very versatile. We did some gardening, sowed… read more

En: I spent a month at the foundation and my experience was awesome! It is a place filled with lovely and inspiring people and I learned a lot during my stay. It is not a lot of work expected from you, only 5 hours in the morning, the rest of the day you can relax, socialise with the people, cool off in the pool or offer/participate in a workshop.… read more

Julia is such a lovely person and hard worker.
We are so happy to have had the chance to spend time with you on the farm. Sadly, I was not able to be there myself so much during your stay. But you always had a warm smile on your face and I only heard good things about you from everyone. I would be very glad, if you choose to visit us again in the… read more

I spent 4 weeks at this farm and had a great experience! I had never worked in agriculture before and enjoyed it a lot! The work is very versatile, a lot of planting, weeding and harvesting but also other tasks like packing the vegetable boxes. It can definitely get tiring on a hot day but you can always choose to go home after the 5 mandatory… read more

Julia is simple superb! Communication before and during her stay here was amazing. Julia volunteered with the Youth Development Centre at the Project and really got involved! She has amazing ideas and works really hard to make them happen. Julie was really reliable, friendly, respectful, fun, hard working, intelligent and kind. She organised… read more
