Description
Hello!
Im Lotte, a 25-year-old from Norway!
My goal as a “Workawayer” is to find a sense of peace in reconnecting with what truly brings me joy — the simple things in life. After living a busy city life filled with work and routines, I want to reconnect with people and nature, learn new skills as well as use and contribute with my own.
I love arts and crafts, music, being outdoors (especially doing gardening) and cooking for others. I am hardworking, and eager to learn - whether it’s picking up a new language, crafting/handy-skills or gaining insight into local traditions.
I also love the idea of contributing to others life through shared effort — a kind of teamwork or “dugnadsånd” (as we call it in Norwegian) — and helping out with things I don’t get to do in my own daily life.
I have experience traveling and working with non-profit/volunteering organizations, but I've never traveled alone - something I've been wanting to do for a long time. I am hardworking, and will strive to do every task as best as i can, big or small.
I´m looking forward to hearing from you!

I would love to learn french! In high school, I took French and absolutely loved it. Unfortunately, I haven’t had the chance to use the language in a good while, so I’ve become pretty rusty. I would really love brush up on my French, and be able to have everyday conversations!

More details about your skills
INTERESTS / SKILLS:
I have experience in painting houses and scraping off old paint, both indoors and outdoors. After working on a “handy team” for a TV production, I gained a solid range of practical skills, including basic carpentry, sawing, and assembling wooden structures. At home, I take pride in creating a personal and good looking environment, and I believe I have a good eye for aesthetics;))
I’ve always had a deep love for music, dance, and crafts such as painting, knitting, and crocheting. I always have a piece of handiwork in my hands in the fall time. In recent years, I’ve also developed a passion for cooking for others and spending time in the garden.
EDUCATION / WORK:
I have a bachelors degree in "Project Management in art and creative industries". Through this, I developed the ability to plan, facilitate, and execute art projects such as exhibitions, festivals, and events.
Today, I work at a cultural center in Oslo, the capital of Norway, while also being involved in the television industry. I also have previous experience working in the music industry.

Feedback
This place is beautiful. I felt a sense of calm that I haven’t experienced in a long time. The tasks were both indoors and mostly outdoors (which I loved), offering good variety. The workday passed quickly, and I had plenty of time to do whatever I wanted for the rest of the day.
