Description
I’m Lara, I’m from Germany and I just finished my degree. Now I’m excited to start my Workaway journey! I want to explore new places, learn new skills and meet inspiring people and their stories along the way.
I grew up on a farm and would love to reconnect with this feeling of living close to nature — but in a sustainable way. I care deeply about the environment and enjoy spending time outdoors, especially hiking.
People often describe me as open-minded, adaptable and curious. I love discovering new perspectives and I’m always ready to help where I can. I’m very interested in sustainability, community projects and everything that brings people together in a meaningful way.
I’m looking forward to learning from my hosts, sharing stories, and hopefully giving something back at the same time.
See you soon — maybe at your place! -

More details about your skills
I studied social work and worked in a gardening project for people with mental health issues during my studies, so I’m good with people and enjoy community work. I also have some experience pet sitting — mostly cats, but I’m comfortable with dogs and chickens too, as I grew up on a farm. While I didn’t pick up every farm skill, basic agriculture and taking care of animals aren’t new to me. I've managed to grow tomatoes and strawberries this year.
I like to cook and people say I’m pretty good at it. I enjoy spending time with kids and they usually like me back!
I speak solid English and German is my native language, so I’d be happy to help teach it. I have a driver’s license and love biking around new places.
I also enjoy creative things: I play a bit of ukulele, I like painting and writing. I’m handy enough to fix small things and use tools when needed.
I’m always open to learn something new and to share what I know! -
