Description
Hello, I'm Jennifer from Switzerland!

I'm 25 years old and recently graduated from university where I studied Medical Technology. Right now I'm backpacking through South East Asia, trying to challenge my comfort zone. In my free time, I like to go to the mountains for snowboarding or a little hike. I love facing new challenges, discovering new countries and traditions and getting to know people from all over the world. That's why I'm ready to embark
on a new adventure with Workaway.

More details about your skills
I am good at working in a fast paced environment and like to be kept busy. I learn very quickly and never turn down a challenge.

In the past, I've done several side jobs outside of university, from working as a housekeeper in a retirement home to being a product promoter as well as preparing fast food or working at the cash register at sporting events. They all taught me adaptability and that you can get something out of every job.

Last year I had the opportunity to do two workaways, the first one at an animal rescue in Ireland, and the second one at a family-run farm in Spain. I was absolutely thrilled to learn about animal care and experiencing life on a farm.

Jennifer! She is such a hard-working, organized, resposible and reliable person!! She works and helps every single tasks with resposibility. We really appreciate to her for such a big help and contributions for everything.

I immediately felt welcome as soon as I arrived at the farm. I stayed over three weeks in February, and main tasks during this time included bird scaring, field weeding, and harvesting. You work in the morning and late afternoon, allowing plenty of time to relax and nap after lunch when it's too hot to be outside. Evenings were perfect for board… read more

Jennifer was our first workawayer from Switzerland and she worked well together with two girls, Dorottya and Yvett from Hungary and later with Maegan from the US. She performed well at the variety of tasks ranging from animal care to mowing a meadow, watering plants and making cement. Life on the finca can be a long slug, for sure. But, she even… read more

I stayed with Robert and Tanja for 4 weeks. First of all, communication was very easy and fast, they always answered within a day and took me in at short notice. Within a week from the moment I wrote to them I was already staying with them.

My stay coincided with Ivett's and Dori's at the beginning and then with Meaghan's. They showed us around… read more

I only stayed on the farm for 3 weeks, but I could have stayed longer. It was my first Workaway experience and I had no experience with animals at all, but once you get used to the tasks and learn how to interact with the animals, it is really rewarding. We worked from 9.30am to 1.30pm and then again from 3.30pm to 5pm. At the end of the day you… read more
