Description
Hey! I’m Nour, 19 years old and from Germany. I’ve recently finished school and would love to spend the year exploring new places, learning new things, and meeting people from different backgrounds.
Friends and family describe me as an empathetic, friendly and reliable person. I am very open-minded, motivated and enjoy learning new skills and helping where help is needed.
I love exploring nature, doing small crafts, experimenting in the kitchen and spending time with children and all kinds of animals. I’m always curious to learn something new while sharing meaningful experiences along the way.

More details about your skills
I have a lot of experience giving tutoring lessons to children and teenagers aged 7 to 18, which has helped me develop patience, responsibility, and good communication skills. Growing up with two younger siblings also gave me plenty of experience with childcare and looking after younger children.
I really enjoy cooking and love trying out new recipes and cuisines. In my free time, I like crafting and doing creative DIY projects. I also enjoy spending time outdoors and being active in nature (e.g. hiking and biking).
As a child and teenager, I spent multiple holidays at a nature conservation and animal rescue foundation. During this time, I was outdoors a lot and helped take care of many different animals, such as donkeys, ponies, pigs, cows, chickens, sheep, and goats.
I am highly motivated, open-minded, and very eager to learn more and gain further experience.
