Description
Hi!

My name is Signe, and I am a 27 year old woman from Denmark. I have previously stayed at workaways, and I had my first solo travel in october - december 2018. I fell in love with workaway as a platform and the way it connects people from different cultures, and includes you in the culture of a country in a different way than other ways of travelling. I volunteered for one month on a horse farm in Austria, cleaning the paddocks, and doing some basic work around the house. Then I spent 3 weeks in Estonia working in a hostel, doing receptionwork and cleaning the rooms.

I have a bachelors degree in social work, and as of february 2025 I will be taking a work break to travel to Costa Rica and Canada. I have travelled to Canada before to visit family (my dad is Canadian, so I have family in Canada), and I am looking forward to visit the country for a longer this time around.

I am a vegetarian, and have been for several years - and I love to cook different vegetarian foods for myself and others! I consider myself as open-minded and hardworking. I always try my best if the work is new to me. I enjoy going for hikes in beautiful nature (I walked the Camino de Santiago in France/Spain in 2019), deep conversations, and to knit sweaters!.

I am looking forward to my travels and to meet you!

I enjoyed my stay here and quickly felt at home - I was there with a great team of two other volunteers who I loved getting to know and had a lot of fun with - and as a great suprise there were 7 lovely puppies to take care of in my time there.

I stayed in Tallinn at the hostel for about three weeks - and I feel so lucky that I got a chance to do so (it went way to fast). The city is really charming (especially the old town in which the hostel is located). The work consisted of reception work and cleaning - and was not to difficult to learn, and since I stayed in the wintertime, not to… read more

I went to Marlies and Markus farm for my first workaway for a month and it was a great experience. They are very nice and welcoming people, and I quickly felt at home.
