Descripción

Hello!
My name is Carolina, 27, raised in a very small village in Portugal. Lisbon was my home for 6 years until last year when facing the pandemic circumstances I decided to travel alone. I'm passionate about nature, art, people and culture!
Since my first workaway two years ago I've been around scandinavia, I saw the midnight sun, collected berries in the mountains, got overwhelmed by the fjords, cooked and served breakfast in a hotel in the middle of the swedish lapland, learned how to grow mushrooms, met the coolest people, tried skiing and snowboarding. And now I have a job as a waitress. Never stop learning.
I dream about taking organic wine produced in my old grandfather's vineyard to the world and have my own little glamping site!


Oh and in the meantime I met Andy.

Hey Hey,
my name is Andy Neumann, I am 28 years old from Germany, Hamburg.
I grew up in a small village close to Hamburg enjoying the village life and prefer it ever since.
My dad taught me a lot about all kinds of projects around the house, which came in handy so often! Nowadays we work together in a company that develops security systems.
I enjoy travelling a lot, spent 1,5 in Australia after high school, where I learned how to surf. Been chasing waves ever since!
Portugal, Indonesia, Spain, France, Morocco, Mexico, are some of the places I've been exploring!

Que habilidades tienes?

Carolina:

Growing up in the countryside gave me a lot of knowledge when it comes to farmlife, gardening and animal care. My favourite time is the grape picking season and winemaking!
I love to be surrounded by nature, whether walking in the middle of the woods or spending entire days by the beach. Working in Lisbon as a tour guide driving tuk tuks was a fun tough ride, it gave me a lot of experience working under pressure and stressful conditions (Lisbon traffic can be complete chaos). It was also the place where I studied acting and journalism and made friends for life. I did some small projects in acting and music.
I have experience with:
hospitality specially in restaurant service,
housekeeping (worked as clean team manager in Japan)
hotel breakfast preparation and some cooking skills
basic farm jobs/fruit picking/animal care

Andy:

By now, my job includes customer support, software installations, webcam demonstrations, scheduling and planning of assembling the access control systems within Germany and bookkeeping/taxes.
During Corona, my company was forced to take a 3 months break. During that period I worked for a local farmer, maintaining and harvesting salad and fennel.
I have good Computer and Internet knowledge. That involves Windows applications, website creation/maintenance, progamming basic applications.
In Australia I worked as a water jetpack instructor and worked in a farm picking strawberries.
General Carpentery. I did build my own miniramp for skateboarding, as well as several other smaller projects like building a bed frame, shelves or desks.
For the last year, we have been renovating my grandmas house that involves building a new kitchen, bathroom, drain pipes, water pipes and the demolishing of a huge garage complex. In Germany we say that I know how to use a cordless screwdriver
Basic electric installation knowledge (Installing power plugs, network cables, lights/LEDs).
Basic knowledge in bookkeeping and taxes.
Basic knowledge with a sewing machine.
Basic gardening skills.

We can't wait for our next adventures!!!
