Description
hey there, I’m Nina🌞
Nice to meet you :)

I'm 21 and from Germany. After finishing my studies in ecology in Wellington, I am now travelling around the country for a couple more weeks. Workaway has been a big part of previous travels that I´ve done in AoNZ and other places around the world. I love getting to know people that way, learning new skills and getting to know places. I've helped out on all sorts of farms, feeding calfs, chickens, ponies, lambs, etc. and done other work outdoors like weeding, pruning, planting and building. Most recently, I spent a few weeks volunteering for DOC, so I am familiar with native plants and wildlife, as well as trapping, track maintenance and odd jobs in the bush.

As an ecologist to be, I am very keen on learning as much about nature as possible. I love birdwatching, identifying plants and venturing around the bush. Really, I'm in for any outdoor adventure!
I like being active as well. Tramping, handstanding, climbing, slacklining and juggeling are some of my favorite things to do. I also like cooking or baking, reading, meditating and connecting with people!

If you need any help, I'd be happy to contribute to your project and exchange ideas!

looking forward to meeting you :))

We had such an awesome time with Hōri, Steffi and little Mātai. They warmly welcomed us into their home right next to native bush and let us be part of their family for a week. They are both really open minded and easy going and we really enjoy hearing and sharing all sorts of travel stories :) We really appreciate all the good homegrown food and… read more

Nina & Robin are a beautiful couple and we would host them again in a heartbeat. They are both very friendly, positive and respectful with a good work ethic. Also very independent and easy going. They were the first workawayers we’ve had since having a baby and they were great at slotting into our routine for the week they were here. They cooked a… read more

We had Nina stay with us on our farm. We loved having her and she was always keen to give everything ago. Nina enjoyed time with our children and animals. She also made the most of her time with us, with walks to the beach and exploring our beautiful landscape.

Dear Sharde, Daniel, Bonnie and Maggie, thank you for having me for 2 amazing weeks! I felt welcomed right away and stayed in the coziest little sleepout. Really enjoyed all the different kinds of jobs I had from feeding the lambies and the pony to washing all of your dirty cars and preparing the blueberry plants. Loved taking Marley up the hill… read more

I stayed for awesome 2 1/2 weeks with Sarah, Paul, Max, Patch, Charlie, Milo& little Weka. I had so much fun running around with the boys, playing football and on the tramp, jumping into the pool in funny ways and making sorbet. Really enjoyed the different kind of jobs I had from weeding and planting to painting, dusting and hanging out with… read more

I'm very grateful for the 2 1/2 incredibly fun weeks I had with Carl and his family! Your place feels like home in NZ now ;) I got to see nearly all the sights of Taupo from the ground as well as the air :D I really enjoyed helping out with what ever had to be done from being part of the ground crew to shearing sheep. Loved having long chats with… read more

Thank you for having me for 2 1/2 amazing weeks! I felt welcomed right away and was very sad to leave. I absolutely adored feeding the calfs and helping with cooking (very occasionally whoops), the avocados, naughty chickens and orchids. Mackenzie and Grady are the cutest and I loved spending time with them (even though they always knocked over my… read more

We had Nina stay with us for 2 1/2 weeks. We loved having her here. She is a very hard worker and a fast learner. She picked up the calf rearing very fast and loved the animals. She's a better baker than cook (excellent cookies). Very respectful of the house and family and our little people really miss her. You would be lucky to have Nina stay… read more
