Description

Hello dear all, I´m from Austria and I´m living with my super friendly dog Henry (Labrador) in the beautiful region called Almtal in Upper Austria. My daughter is already an adult and she comes to visit us as much as possible. We are very close and she is definitely my favorite human being 😁
In April 2025 I retired but I felt always very timeless in my heart and soul (I´m 60) ... so I have much more time now to travel with my wonderful dog.
My passion is getting in touch with people and their culture, their kitchen & food, traveling to different countries. I especially love the south and the sea.
In my younger years, I lived in Rome for more than 8 years and still today I love the language and the country.
Professionally I was very versatile: Art & Creative Director for 20 years, artist, trainer,
I had my own little fashion company (designing T-Shirts), I was socially committed and I worked with older people and learned a lot about self healing and the meaning of energetic work ....
I have registered on Workaway because I have a lot of time now and it's a great opportunity to get to know people, new countries and learn new skills ...so I will travel with my very old Golf and my dog Henry 😁

More details about your skills

I am a very creative person and I have a positive approach to things and life.
Through my diverse activities, I have learned to act independently and responsibly.

I love cooking, baking bread, making fresh orange jam, healthy food, good wine, gardening (I had a permaculture garden with friends), acrylic painting and languages ​​(I also teach Italian-communication).
I enjoy helping people around the house and keeping it tidy as if it were my own.
And of course, I love going on long walks and hikes with my dog ​​and swimming. My dog ​​is also a passionate swimmer 😁
Empathy and mindfulness are very important to me, and we humans must not forget that...
