Description
Hi, my name is Liv!
I started my first workway adventure after my highschool grad in 2019 and loved it so much I ended up traveling for 17 months instead of 6. The memories and friends I made during that time I will forever be grateful for. Eventually I went back home to Germany and started working in the film industry. I'm currently in my last year as an apprentice to become a media operator based in Cologne. In 2024 I will take a couple of months off to travel (July-September).

I'm open to any kind of position and I bring along different skills that might suit what you as a host are looking for. I would love to find an opportunity that allows me to go on hikes and explore nature (day hikes, tent trekking, (wild)camping, horseriding) as well as get to know new people, cultures and learn new skills.

I'm looking forward to getting to know you :)

LIv is a truely extraordinary helper.
Not only that she is very practical, she also is an emphatic animal lover and sensibel rider.
She is responcible and and realiable, hard working ranchhand.
Our horses enjoyed her loving caring and our family her heartfull presence and her humor.
Next time she comes around, we won´t let her go again.

I had a wonderful month being part of this amazing family, learned a lot about a different approach to horses & life, had countless laughs and great food, explored beautiful beaches as well as eucalyptus forests, caught sunsets and waves and spent many hours in the saddle.
I am beyond grateful for Chris' trust in me concerning the horses and… read more

Where do I even start?
This was my first of many workaway experiences and it really set the bar high. I ended up extending my stay to over 2 months that’s how much I loved it here. It is such a unique place, I would recommend everyone to come here if you get the chance.
Nature is stunning and exploring it on horseback might be one of the best… read more

Having Liv stay with us was an absolute pleasure. She is kind-hearted, a hard worker, follows directions well and is also curious to learn new skills. She has done some lovely art work for us too and we would have loved for her to stay longer. Thank you so much Liv, you are most welcome to come back anytime!

I spent 2 weeks at the shelter and I would definitely recommend it.
I stayed in the trailer that was very cozy and private and shared my meals with the other workaway at the time, Jordan.
Jani and James are such lovely and fun people who always made sure we were feeling good about everything and asked for our opinion on how they handled things… read more

I stayed at Val and Roger’s Acreage for 3 weeks and it was just what I needed at that point. There wasn’t much to do but it never got boring. Unfortunately most of their horses were out in a summer pasture at the time so I didn’t get to train horses but I really enjoyed spending time with Matt and Jaimie. We had some fun bonfires and BBQs with… read more

I spent 6 amazing weeks at the Ranch. Didn’t take long for me to feel comfortable and like a part of the family. Judy and Chris always gave their all to make sure everybody had their best time.
Chris took us on numerous amazing adventures from roadtrips, rodeos and auction sales to shopping and food.
