New Zealand - from Mar 2024 until May 2024 View allDescription
Hello Workaway community! :)
My name is Nele and I am from Germany.
I have just finished high school and before I go to university to become a primary school teacher, I am travelling around Australia and New Zealand for 8 months.
The reason I am travelling with workaway is to connect more with nature on the one hand and on the other hand to do physical work (in particular). Taking over part of the knowledge from other people myself and making use of it directly sounds very exciting to me. Furthermore I always felt travelling enriched me, as I travelled a lot with my family. Now it is time for me to travel alone and in a new way to experience some adventures. I am very grateful to have the opportunity to do so.
Now some information about myself. I am a very sporty person and my passion, which I pursue three times a week, is street dance. I practice different styles such as Dancehall, Afro Fusion and Hip Hop. In addition I love nature, which is the reason you can often see me hiking, swimming or taking long walks, which is also the reason I want to explore many national parks during my gap year. My friends say that I am an empathetic and humorous person. Moreover I like having conversations and hope that I will have the chance to gain insight into how others look at life and be inspired by it. I am quite curious to see how living in another culture and encountering unfamiliar situations changes one.
I am looking forward to getting to know you! :)Interests

Most of my experiences that can be useful for a workaway I have gained at home and expanded during my first workaway. I love gardening and I am happy to help with any household chores, cleaning bathrooms and kitchens, washing and ironing. Additionally I really like cooking, but I am still learning. Besides I am good with children as I sometimes babysat for my neighbours and have done several internships in primary schools.
I cannot offer that many skills, as you can see, but I can offer a lot of enthusiasm. So if you are looking for someone who is interested in learning and working and who is (after a little explanation;)) able to work independently, I am the right person for you. I would be happy to acquire many new skills.🙌🏼Age
