Description

Hey everyone,
i am Leni from Berlin, Germany. I just finished school and now I want to discover new cultures, habits, meet people from all over the world and want to learn new things to broaden my horizon. I want to start my journey in Europe, because I think that the continent I lived my entire life on has so much to offer that I don´t know of yet. I always lived in a very large city, and thats why I think it might be interesting to live in the country side for a while and to live the rural lifestyle, learn more about farming, self-suffiency and permaculture. I love being surrounded by animals and nature. I like playing the piano, hiking, dancing, reading, taking photographs, drinking tea and connecting with other people.

More details about your skills

I´ve been babysitting in various families and I really love kids. If someone wants to practice german, I can help. I am also interested in learning other languages, especially french and spanish, because I already know the basics and I´d like to continue speaking them. I worked the entire last year in the area of gastronomy and I also worked in a hostel for a few weeks (via workaway).
If needed, I could also help with social media as I am used to them.

The hostel is perfectly located, there are always a lot of volunteers around, the shifts are flexible and really fair. I felt comfortable.

I stayed nearly two weeks at Craig`s and Fran´s house. I really enjoyed the time. We had interesting talks and loved running or biking in the area. Especially the food was amazing and I am really inspired by the vegan food. I am also a fan of spicy food now ;)
My work was quite easy and not too hard. I had no experience with building or … read more

Leni stayed with us for a rainy two-week period in December. Unfortunately, this meant that tasks were limited to indoor renovation work, which is not always the most varied work. However, Leni completed tasks asked of her without complaining. Some of these involved tools she was not used to, but she learned very quickly on the job. She also … read more

Helene or ' Leni' is a delightful young lady. Always keen to help and learn. She was a great team player and got stuck into every task asked of her. She was great with the children and attentive with the animals. Easy to live with and has a great sense of humour. Welcome back any day! x x x
