Description
I am a 22-year-old bioengineer student who embarked on my first solo journey by participating in a volunteering project in Italy2 years ago. The primary element that drives my motivation is the desire to experience new things and be part of a team. I find joy in immersing myself in different cultures, meeting new people, and contributing to meaningful projects. The sense of accomplishment and personal growth that comes from stepping out of my comfort zone and working collaboratively with others is incredibly fulfilling. This blend of adventure and teamwork fuels my passion for workaway and similar opportunities.

More details about your skills
I volunteered in three different places through Workaway over two months, which really helped me get a feel for how the system works. I got to try out a bunch of different things, from gardening and kitchen work to construction tasks. Plus,having previously worked on a small-scale construction project, I have a foundational understanding of excavation. This experience also taught me how to carry various weights and work effectively as part of a team. During my time in Italy, I engaged in various pruning tasks in a vineyard, collected clothing, and learned the operations at different farms. Additionally, I work as a barista, which has made me proficient in kitchen tasks and skilled in communication with people. My academic background has also equipped me with basic knowledge of sustainability and laboratory work.

What else ...
In my personal life, I engage in various hobbies. My newest hobby, which I particularly enjoy doing with others, is slackline. I love sharing this hobby to help others experience new things and to improve my own skills. Besides slackline, I am also interested in mat yoga and hammock yoga. Generally, I am drawn to calm and balance-oriented hobbies. Additionally, I am very enthusiastic about group nature walks and activities.Also i am realy into sing a song but i am shy so i can sing with a group:D

I spent a very peaceful 10 days in the countryside, where I fully indulged my love for animals and had my own private space. Thanks to Gabi and Grum, I got to learn how an international family lives in Germany and gained experience in various gardening tasks. The dogs’ initially sensitive behavior, followed by them gradually warming up to me, was… read more

During the 10 days I spent living with Jens, I never felt like a stranger. His trust in me with daily tasks allowed me to experience Germany in a comfortable way. The daily tasks I completed, such as painting walls and working in the garden, were always met with kind responses, which made me happy. The brief conversations we had and his… read more

I spent 11 days in this place where I had the chance to experience many different tasks and where my creativity was allowed to touch various aspects of the living space they created. I felt very free and safe. Living with Etienne, Mirna, Andrea, and Iris (and the sweet animals), I felt not just like a workawayer, but like a friend, a family… read more
