Description
Hey together!
My Name is Kalina (this is my Slavic nickname - that‘s the reason why you can‘t see it directly on my profile). I’m 26 years old and I love to travel in a unconventional way. At the moment I live in Leipzig, Germany.
In 2024 I travelled for half a year only by bike and train in diverse countries in Europe - I only slept in my tent or at local people‘s places which I found via BeWelcome. Here you also can find some reviews from people that hosted me.
My BeWelcome username is: k.lina.o (this is my username on Instagram as well)
My friends and family keep on saying that I‘m a person that gives them a lot of good vibes and motivation. I do have a lot of energy to give - Mostly I spend it for little everyday adventures or to help people out. 🙌
The last year I started using Workaway and I loved everything about it. So I made many great experiences with this already. My tasks were mainly housesitting, pet sitting, renovating inside and outside, helping with household and preparing meals, helping on farms, gardening and a little childcare as well. In my opinion it is better to stay somewhere as helpful guest than as a tourist. I like giving something back and to get in contact with locals and tradditions. I really like to have some tasks while staying in foreign countries and learn something new from the people that live there (about the country or the culture for example).
Now I start travelling again and I look forward to have a adventureous time while helping my future hosts! 😊

More details about your skills
Animals:
I grew up with different pets. Especial with cats, and smaller ones like rabbits. I also have some experience with farm animals like goats, ponys, horses and chickens. I could take care of these animals after a short introduction.
Crafting:
I‘m interested in different kinds of crafting tasks. I really like to work with wood and I do have experiences in doing bigger DIY projects at home. Things I haven’t done yet I would also very much like to learn.
Babysitting:
I have often looked after my sister's children aged 5 and 10. I enjoy the energy of children and I like to do activities with them. People often tell me I make a nice and interesting impression on their children and that they like me very much because of my charisma.
Household:
If you need help with doing the household I can support you with doing tasks like doing the laundry and the dishes, cleaning the apartment and bathroom, tidying up etc.
Gardening:
I have also already helped with gardening in my grandparents' garden - I‘m not afraid to get my hands dirty ((:
All in all I would say I‘m a committed person that likes to learn new things and doing physically tasks.

Physical movement is a very important thing in my life. At the moment I cycle a lot but I like other sports (table tennis, volleyball etc.) as well although I‘m not a professional in these sports (;
Art:
I‘m also a very creative person that is interested in art in general. Next to creating art I like to visit exhibitions and like to learn more about the local art especially such as street art.
