Description
Hi :)
I'm Marlen, 21 years old and currently studying applied mathematics in Saxony, Germany.
I'm looking for an opprtunity to get to know new people and culture and spend some time outside in nature, not working on my desk.
I have some experiences working with animals and did some wwoofing in norway last year. I had a really good time there and felt so welcomed by the community of workers that I now want to explore different countries while working amongst like-minded people.Interests

I spend three months in France so my French used to be really good, unfotunately I have not used it for some time. But this is when I experiences first hand that the best way to learn a langue is to use it in your everyday life and that a language also shows something about society. So wherever I am I'm greatful to learn some basics of the local language.Skills and knowledge I'd like to share or learn

GardeningAnimal CareLife at a FarmstayMore details about your skills
I grew up on a small farm with horses, chicken, ducks, rabbits, a dog and some cats so I would say I'm used to get along with many different kind of animals.
I also helped harvesting vegetables on a farm in norway last year, so I got some experiences with that as well.
Further I work in a school for about half a year where I helped children with their homework and helped some kids with special needs to get along in a busy school day.
My native language is German but I also learned French and English at school.
In general I'm a fast learner and always curious to learn something new.Age

In my freetime I go hiking, started climbing, spend time in the stable and do horse riding.
When I'm not outside I like to read, play the accordeon or spend some time with friends.Some more information
