Description

I really enjoy fishing, hiking, canoeing and just being outdoors in general. I always want to explore new things and are open for any outdoor adventure.

In 2025 and 2026 I did a year of working and travelling in Canada. Canada has always been a very special place for me as my parents took me to the Yukon at just four years old. Getting to know the country for such a long time was an amazing experience.

Now I'm looking for new adventures in Northern Europe!

More details about my language interests
I have been a fan of languages ever since entering school. It would be great to refresh my spanish. I learned Spanish for over five years in school but because of not really speaking on a regular a lot of it has faded. I am happy to teach German (my native language) or help with English.

What else ...

I have played Floorball for over 16 years which is a super small sport, comparable to Ice Hockey without ice in a regular gym. It would be great to share my knowledge because the sport is super easy to learn and a great team sport that brings a lot of fun and teaches helpful things for life.

I spent two and a half weeks with Carl in September & October and really enjoyed every second of my time. I helped him pack up things at his beautiful summer cottage in the Espoo Archipelago, built a floor in the barn and did some painting jobs at his farm in Vantaa. Together with his friend Dan I also helped attaching gutters to the buildings. My … read more

Niklas was an amazing help in every way possible. Very skillfully, intelligent, polite. Very good at DIY and an amazing cook. Thank you so very much for all your help and presence. We also dove into a whole 8 Limbs of Yoga educational journey which was amazing. 😀 Welcome back 🙏 😘

What a pleasant and observant person to have in the house. Always positive, polite, tidy and ready to hit the tasks. Niklas brought a lot of joy into the team and worked very well with all woodworking tools, being precise in completing the tasks and humble in learning new aspects. Curious and interested in learning about local culture and actively … read more

I had a nice time here. The beautifully renovated house is surrounded by forests and lakes and it felt like a real Finnish experience.

I mostly worked with Mikke and learned a lot, especially about woodworking and mushroom foraging. During my three weeks I helped building steps from the deck to the garden, tackled various little fixing tasks … read more

It was great having Niklas with us. He was here for two weeks and he was very helpful and hard working. He helped us a lot in the garden and some long due projects got taken care of.

He is also very social and easy to communicate with.

He is always welcome back at our place

My stay in Søndersø for two weeks in the middle of August was so awesome! From the first moment Line, Kim, Molly and Viggo made me feel comfortable and super welcome. Their loft on the second floor is super cute and the perfect place to relax. I mainly helped them in the garden - removing blackberries, cutting hedges, painting beams for new … read more

My stay with Asha, Michael and Sammy was a blessing. They took me in last minute for one week. I'm really thankful for them helping me out, after my previous Workaway in Whitehorse was a bit of a misunderstanding.

I immediately felt welcome, appreciated and impactful. My main project was renovating a storage room into a small office space. Every … read more

Nik was a huge help around the house. Very independent in his after hours as well. Great skills in DIY, he helped us refinish our spare room.

We had lots of fun chatting about sports and the outdoors. He is a very avid outdoorsman!

Highly recommend!

My stay at this Workaway was a little bit of a misunderstanding with different expectations from both sides. I planned to stay for 10 days but ended up leaving after five. I never felt like I got a good introduction on how the place works and overall it felt more like a "long working hours" in return for "money"-exchange, than the cultural … read more

The main task during our 10-day stay at their property was sanding down their wooden deck. We also helped with gardening and were invited to a neighbour to pot trees.

Smithers is a neat little community in a beautiful mountain setting with lots of nature to explore in the area. We would totally recommend staying with the Perry's and thank you … read more

We cannot thank Niklas enough for the months of support he gave to my mom. Just an incredible young man. He gladly did the cleaning and ran errands for her and took care of tasks around the house. I cannot sing his praises enough.

What started as a month-long stay at first, turned into me spending five months at this amazing workaway! My time with Marta and her entire family were awesome. The house is so well-kept, and very clean, and the third-floor loft was an awesome place to stay for me. I helped Marta clean the bnbs, did small repairs around the house, shovelled snow, … read more

I had a wonderful stay at James and Carla's place! I was in charge of taking care of their property and chickens while they were on vacation. My main project was painting the bed- and living rooms while they were gone. I also did some landscaping, dry wall work and split firewood. I was able to work at my own pace, used my time to explore the … read more

Niklas was a great person to have for three weeks at my Cottage and Home. He was respectful, tidy and meticulous in his execution of all the tasks. I asked him to do.

I would highly recommend anybody that is looking for a great person to stay in your home to consider him. I hope him the best for his travels and I know that he will have an amazing … read more

I really enjoyed my stay (3 weeks) with Dirk in his cottage on beautiful Bitter Lake. There was never a shortage of projects to do and Dirk let us decide how many hours we want to work - super flexible and easy-going. The tasks I did included painting, splitting and stacking firewood, organizing, gardening and building projects. He is a great cook … read more
