Upper Franconia, Germany - from Apr 2024 until Jul 2025 View allDescription
I am a reliable, responsible, honest and physically fit lady from Riga wishing to help in a guest-house or on a farm in rural setting or in a small town. I prefer healthy and green life- style as far as possible. I like farming and housekeeping, being close to nature, waking up early, working independently and carefully while living in a friendly family or community as a member of this family or group . Currently I have been working as a translator for a Family Court (documents from/into Latvian English, Russian). I look forward to being a great help to my hosts. I would highly appreciate quality time together and communication enriching for all of us.

What else ...
I prefer gardening, working outdoors, living in a family or in a small community as since the childhood I have worked outdoors - in summer at our family garden, on farm fields, later at archaeologists’ campuses and on a nice Norwegian farm growing tomatoes. I love physical work outdoors but also like work in kitchen, especially peeling potatoes and washing up. I also like cooking, making salads, deserts, soups and stews. Every year I visit my friends who have their farms and help them with gardening, picking fruits and berries, vegetables, planting, weeding, pruning etc. I just love outdoor activities with friends in the sun and fresh air. I am afraid of remaining (especially sleeping) in cold and humid place. I am an introvert still very sociable person highly appreciating group activities.
Background: Children Music School (playing piano 7 years), College for Applied Arts (clothing designer) and College University (Translation).
Before Covid19 came I enjoyed Workaway in Slovenia (visited the same family)
twice and in Austria once. My best - brilliant and unforgettable Workaway, was this summer in friendly energetic smart and hardworking family in Franconia. In November I did my last Workaway so far in Andalusia.Some more information
