Also I'm reliable, responsible, friendly, social, open minded, respectful, can work on my own, find solutions for challenges... ... ...

What else ...

During my 6month cycling across North America 2025 (sabbatical) i realized my main goal about travelling: to be with people. To get to know them, to come familiar to them. I stayed with a lot of different warmshowers and it was such a good experience.
I also heard about workaway from one of these warmshowers hosts.
I think i'm easy to handle.
