Description
Hallo to all you lovely people!
I´ve started to think about life outside of my regular 9 to 5 as a social worker a couple of months ago and different talks with different friends have led me to signing up on workaway :)
Starting in July 2023, I´ll be on a 5 month trip to "let´s find out and see".
I´m looking for 2-3 anchor points, to give this little trip some structure, but the main goal is to let myself drift from what feels good to what feels better.

More details about your skills
I grew up in a small Bavarian village, surrounded by animals. My family has always had chickens and sheep, so I'm not squeamish when it comes to manure or smell.
I like to do handicrafts, like knitting and writing lots of postcards.
Professionally, I've always had a lot to do with people, as a social worker I've worked with children and mentally ill people for almost 6 years now.
My parents have a small restaurant, so waiting and communicating with custoumers is in my blood :D
Age
29
What else ...
I love love love to learn new games, eventhough the person teaching me, will have to have great patience :D
Backgammon/Tavla is my absolute favourite, eventhough my skills are expandable ;)

Please do not hesitate to ask me any questions, especially when I´m asking you to host me. All of this is very new to me, eventhough I do have some couchsurfing experience in traveling and hosting. I do my best in communicating very clearly, but I feel my "social worker" talk coming through from time to time. Let me know if there´s anything that might not be clear :D

The communication with both of them was exactly as I hoped: I was assigned fixed tasks from the start and every morning Anna and I discussed everything that was current for the day, very clear communication.

Aylin spent with us very short two weeks. She is more than only good companion, hard worker and very responsible person. She has good sense to be curious about everything and we spent lots of time with small but also really deep talks.

I got to know Freya and David as super relaxed and really nice people. In the two weeks in which I was admitted to their home, there was a lot going on, but we woofer/workawayer didn't notice anything about the stress they were experiencing, they could separate them so well! They are super hard working and you can feel that they love this place so… read more
