Description

I’m an open-minded person with big passion for helping in wildlife and nature and exploring new cultures. I could show this in different stays during the last years in experiences in Namibia and South-Africa:

- Guest farm near Maltahöhe as Au-Pair 2000 (helping tourists, farm cleaning, feeding animals, walking with dogs, kitchen help)
- Wildlife Sanctuary Harnas and Naankuuse (several weeks in 2016 and 2017: helping orphaned animals, caring for injured and unwanted pets, enclosure cleaning)
- Wildlife Act (South-Africa): working for big five, monitoring animals 2013
- 2018 and 2019 South-Africa (Animal Care projects in Thornhill, Shamwari and Standford for several weeks)
- 2020 South-Africa as workawayer in Greyton (Pet care in vegan farm)

Unfortunately, I have no experiences in cooking.

I can manage this despite my chronic headaches who reduce occasionally my productivity. So I need sometimes a break to finish it properly.

Now I’m looking for new opportunities to explore my horizon and learn more about farm life and helping guests without administration. So, I’m very interested to make new experiences with new challenges.
