Description

I’m Maria, I am 26 years old and have lived in many places. I’ve spent the last years in different countries and would love to see even more places. I worked in different social facilities as a Pädagoge. I also studied psychology (B.Sc) and worked in film and media. I grew up with all kinds of animals, especially with horses. My parents still have horses and I am very familiar with all of the tasks. I love to spend time in nature, with animals and since I write books, I also love to gain new experiences and do more physical work. In my last workaway I did a lot of garden work, cooking and handy tasks. For the last 11 years I’ve also worked in many different restaurants and hotels :)

More details about your skills

I am a reliable person with a passion for working with animals, especially horses. I have experience in stable care and I am confident in handling daily tasks around animals. Thanks to my background as a waitress, I am well-organized, fast, and able to coordinate tasks efficiently. I have also worked as a kindergarten teacher and nanny, which has given me patience, responsibility, and the ability to connect with people of all ages.

What else ...

I love to chat about all different topics, I know a lot of fun facts and about niche things but I also enjoy alone time, I think it’s the mixture of both :)

this is one of the best places you will find for a workaway experience! after some hours I already felt like a part of this huge family. I learned many new things about horses and really enjoyed the mornings at the stables.

Manu and Rob are very good hosts. They picked lovely people and I've spent three weeks in a environment where you look forward to every new day, even though the work can be hard. It was nice to do physical work (with a fantastic view) and then rest by the fire and have such good conversations while eating home cooked meals. I could also learn a … read more

Maria was part of a team that worked for 3 weeks here in the South of France in November. The work was hard, clearing and burning mountains of the all-invasive Mimosa, repairing paths and steps, and sharing food, good times, conversations…

Maria was always hard-working, very content to connect to a podcast and continue all day long with physical … read more

Having Maria with us was an absolute pleasure — we honestly couldn’t have wished for better help or a kinder or more delightful person. She has an incredible sense of overview and always understood how to do every task the right way — often adding that little extra touch we hadn’t even thought of ourselves. She is very quick to understand what … read more

Staying on Susan’s and Finn‘s farm was one of the best experiences of my life. It is a very beautiful and homely place and I immediately felt calmed down there. Susan and Finn also create an environment that allows you to grow, make mistakes and discover that you are good at things, you would have never trusted yourself with. And not only the warm … read more
