Description
Hello, I'm Lene!
I'm from Germany, I'm 21 years old and have been workawaying for some months in the past years (at a farm in Scotland, one in czech rep, teaching English in Vietnam). Before I go to university I hope to go on another adventure, get to know new people, be challenged and learn more about other cultures and new skills. I am reliable, a good listener, hard working, focussed and adaptable to new situations. In my freetime I like to learn new languages (I'm practicing french but would be delighted to learn some italian, too), do yoga, read, and I used to play the piano for ages. I want to travel to Italy next, since I've never been there and I am excited for the landscapes, the food and the culture.

I still can't believe how lucky I was to end up in this place! I was going to stay four weeks here, but in the end it's been two months - and they were wonderful.
Rosie is a very interesting person who has travelled a lot, and there are so many things you can learn from her. We shared many laughs and I really enjoyed our conversations. She's also… read more
