Description

Helloooo! I'm Leonidas (Leo) from Germany. I’m not exactly sure what to write here, as I’m not great at these things 🤣. I’m new to all of this, but I’ve wanted to try out Workaway for quite some time now, and I feel like the time to start is now. I really hope we can help each other out!

A bit about me: I would say I’m usually a positive and bubbly person (unless I’m really hungry 😂), and I love being around people with that same energy, but I also get along very well with most of people!

I’m really interested in learning new things, especially history, geography, music, and languages.
I love meditation, teaching German, working out, cooking, eating good good, walking, wandering around, spending time with people I love, listening to music, watching YouTube, and much more!
These are the things that motivate me and keep me going, helping me avoid falling into a dark place. I’m always eager to experience, learn, work, and enjoy my time here on Mother Earth.

More details about your skills

I love talking to other people, listening to their stories, and sharing my own, I also enjoy learning and teaching languages, especially German, as I started teaching it on online platforms just this year. In addition, I speak fluent English, have an intermediate level of Spanish, and know some Greek! With these language skills, I could also work at the reception of your hotel, hostel, Airbnb, etc., and be the first positive impression that travelers need 😁
I'm also very organized and a tidy person, so I can handle more tasks than just staying at the reception.

Besides loving to talk, I also enjoy the opposite – quietness. I practice meditation (usually daily) 🧘‍♂️ and try to be present in the moment, even though it's sometimes hard to achieve. I've been meditating for nearly 10 years, and I even attended a meditation retreat in the forest of northern Thailand, where I shared the experience with just a few other people.
I am also very confident in sharing my meditation praxis to a group of people, even though I never done it before.

I also enjoy working with animals – feeding them, cleaning up after them, showing them love, and just being there for any animals in need. Speaking of animals, I enjoy a good vegetarian/vegan meal 😋. I'm not the best cook (but would like to improve), but I do enjoy chopping veggies and preparing ingredients (especially if there's a good chef's knife!). I do eat fish though and recently got my fishing license in Germany just before starting my travels. Unfortunately, I never had time to go fishing on my own, but I would be very keen to learn if you're into it.

Back home, I started doing calisthenics, a form of strength training using only your body weight (it also incorporates some yoga). I’d love to share information about it if you’re interested, as I’d use calisthenics to stay fit while staying with you. I also enjoy hiking and walking for long distances, so if you’re in need of a hiking buddy or (with a bit of knowledge of your surroundings) a guide, I can be your man.

I’m willing to do much more if you're willing to show me exactly how, like for real exactly.
I will ask many questions to understand a task, as I’m not the kind of person who fully understands the first time, but after a few tries, I usually get it right and I will always give my best effort to get the job done.
