Description
Hi ! My name is Katja. I am 24 years old and live at the windy coast of Northern Germany. Here, I study English and Geography at the University of Greifswald to become a teacher.
In my free time, I like to be active in sports and ever since I can remember I especially love athletics. In general, I like to spend my time outdoors in nature, go hiking, or do some gardening - as long as I am in the fresh air :)
I am also passionate about cooking and love trying healthy, vegan recipes.
To let my mind wander, I also enjoy being creative with arts and crafts.
In Australia, I want to perfect my English skills in daily interactions and immerse myself in the culture.

More details about your skills
I like accompanying children on their journey through life and getting them enthusiastic about learning new skills. In addition to an internship in a kindergarten, I have already taught English and geography at a grammar school for 3 months as part of my teaching degree.
Even though I would not describe myself as experienced in the field of crafts, I am eager to learn, curious and not afraid to lend a hand!

I spent over a month at Andrew, Jodie and El's beautiful farm and it was an unforgettable time! They are such warm, supportive people and made me feel at home right from the start. Working in the garden was fun, the cabins are very cosy and comfortable and there was nothing missing in terms of culinary delights (including amazing homemade bread😊)!… read more

It was wonderful having Katja stay, she is very hard working, clean and tidy and such a fun and positive person.
Katja worked very well from a list and only had to be shown once what or how to do, she completed all tasks very well and made them fun with her lovely nature.
All living spaces were left clean and tidy, and the animals and children… read more

I spent almost two weeks at Jane's and Glenn's beautiful home in Taradale and it was a truly special time. I really felt at home from the start. The accommodation in the Tiny House was so comfortable and food-wise they have everything the heart desires. Working in the garden and greenhouse was a lot of fun and just what I needed after noisy, busy… read more

She was a quick learner and helped us weeding the spring garden and on rainy cold days she spring cleaned out glass house, which is now so wonderful to sit in and enjoy. We had many wonderful conversations and the joy of language and culture. Best of luck in your travels Katya, and do come and visit again when… read more
