Hi! I'm a 19 y. o. student currently about to start university.
I love spending time in nature, visiting historical sites, going on hikes and most of all learning about other people. I'm open to learn anything new and love to listen to personal stories of people around the world to get to know them better - everyone has their unique way of living and I love to be inspired by them.Interests

More details about your skills
I can speak Czech, understand Slovak, speak almost fluently English and on a basic level understand and speak German (although I'm still pretty much just learning). I've had a part time job where I assisted a teacher with teaching children, so I think I could help someone learn English on a basic level.
I have also been a camp leader and one of the leaders of our town's children's club of nature conservationists for the past two years. Thanks to that I now have a lot of experience with working with children. This work (which I've also done as a volunteer) also helped me improve my social skills. Throughout the year, I take part in many activities of our club such as collecting garbage, looking after and repairing birdhouses and feeders or simply getting rid of harmful plants in the area.
Apart from that, my family rents out a camper which I throughoutly clean after every use. I also help out with repairing the small parts of its interier. I have just recently also started learning to drive it, so I'm familiar with driving larger vehicles (but only automat, not manual).
Although I'm not very experienced in gardening and taking care of the house because I currently live in a flat, I am a fast learner and try to help out wherever needed.Age

What else ...
I'm interested in history, math and interesting buildings. I love sunshine, spring and good tea. When it comes to board games, I'm always ready to play some and learn to play new ones! I'm generally not very competetive so I see it as a chance to get to know others.

Since this was our first Workaway project we were a little nervous but this family showed us such hospitality and kindness that we felt like at home right away. Although there is lots of work to do around the house and we weren't bored, the hosts allowed us to work at our own pace… read more
