Description

Hello to everyone, fellow-wanderers, my name is Sofia. My wandering starts 1.5 years ago, when I first went abroad by myself. I came to Vienna, to live, work and study. In that time I didn't know much about.. well just didn't know much :) so I worked as a waitress, bartender, kitchen staff, hotel worker, cleaning lady, babysitter. Although it took me a while to understand how to adjust to the new environment. People I was engaged with were helping me a lot. And I am grateful for that, I learned how to handle responsibilities and enjoy the process.
Recently I returned from my vacation from the Netherlands, I spent one week travelling by train across the country from one city to another, I enjoyed a lot ;) and decided to return this year to explore the life from the inside out, not as a tourist, but through interaction with people. So here I am, this is my first workaway experience and I am looking forward to it 💪

Briefly into about my character:
1. I have a strong one, but also good manners and respect ;)
2. I love manual labor and nature, animals
3. I am well educated - architecture and art, also can teach you paint and draw, if you want
4. I am always open to trying new things, and always grateful for the opportunity to exchange, develop and help -I love interaction!

Currently is nearly the beginning of 2025 - I am no perfect waitress, chef, nanny or architect , but I know how to learn and how to work and what it takes. I would like to proceed my journey and my search, with your support. See you around ;)

More details about your skills

I has grown up in a big family in the farm (I have older brother and sisters, 2 nephews and a niece) so I know how to take care of the garden, plants and animals, and children - I know how to live in a big family :)
My proficiency is architecture - bachelor degree, I stopped theoretical studying and decided to go for exploration of the process from the inside out. My background in farm life is my key to be enthusiastic to work not only with a laptop, but also physically. Land and garden maintenance - is my meditation.
Last couple of years I was actively socializing, I worked in hospitality, sales and caretaking positions - it gave me more understanding of human nature. Additionally, I used to self-study psychology and psychoanalysis, which added to acceptance of humanity and life in general ..
And the last, but not list- I love art, in general, and also people passionate about whatever they do: sing, paint, write or raise children. Art is a shape of life.

Age
