Description

I am in my late 20's and have always loved to travel and decided to take a little leap this year, quit my job and travel for a few months. I am excited to see new sights, learn about new cultures (especially food!), and have new experiences. I am a hard worker and willing to help in any way I can.
Nature, animals, sweets, crocheting and photography (even though I absolutely dispise having my photo taken) are things that I really enjoy and would love to learn any new skills you can throw at me! I can be a bit shy at first but adjust with a bit of time.

Unfortunately my stay with Bea and Rocco was a short 10 days, but I enjoyed every minute. I was hard work but interesting learning and working with the clay and straw. Bea was very patient with my rough German skills and explaining things to me so I could understand. I wish I would have been able to stay longer to learn more.
Thanks for having me!

Marcos and Verena are an extremely lovely couple I felt welcomed and at home right away. I really enjoyed staying with them and was sad at how quickly my two weeks there had passed.

I stayed with Beate and Hubert for the month of May and had such a nice time. This was a great first Workaway experience, they were both kind, helpful and patient with my very rough German. It was so interesting learning about the llamas, alpacas and gardening. I also enjoyed playing with their two beautiful and loving dogs.
The land around their … read more
