Thanks for reading our profile!
We are Charlie (35, tree surgeon/arborist, from Ireland) and Christin (28, child psychologist, from Germany). We met during Christin's first ever workaway in Ireland in 2017 and are currently taking a gap year together to explore more of the world.
As a trained and experienced tree surgeon, Charlie is very knowledgeable in trees and gardening, from pruning and dead wooding to felling. He is also a very skilled handyman and adept at fixing or building all sorts of things, and able to help out with heavy work. On top of that, he's an amazing cook too and great with kids and animals!
Christin spent the last years studying psychology and working with kids and families. She especially loves taking care of children and animals, but is just as happy to help with any tasks needed. In previous workaways, she worked at a sheep farm in Scotland, two farms in France (gardening, painting, woodwork, animal care,...), cleaned rooms and prepared breakfast in Italy and the South of France, wrote articles about the local area for a tourist magazine in Ireland and worked as an Au pair in London.
We both love the outdoors, are fascinated by geology and can't wait to discover new landscapes while meeting new people, supporting you and getting to know you and your culture.
We're looking forward to getting to know you! Any questions please get in touch! :)

Algo más...
Our passions include psychology, geology, foreign languages, spending time outside hiking, kayaking, skating, slacklining or juggling.
Christin loves to play the piano, dance and is addicted to morning yoga (and to cake).
I'm a conscientious worker, reliable, honest, calm and value humour a lot! :-)
My previous workaways have been incredibly rewarding experiences, meeting people from all over the world and learning about their cultures. Taking a gap year after uni to travel has been my dream for a long time, so I can't wait to meet you and create new memories!
Charlie loves trees and being in nature and exploring. I've grown a passion for nature and gardens from working with my mum at home in the garden. After traveling for 6 years and doing all sorts of odd jobs I came home and became a tree surgeon. I'm hard working, friendly and passionate about my work.

Christin and Charlie are very friendly and hard working. They did lots of gardening. Charlie is a whizz with anything related to trees and used my chainsaw to cut up wood, cut down weed trees and helped me with my ride on mower.

Ici j'ai trouvé tout ce que j'avais espéré: Une immersion totale dans la langue et culture francaise ainsi que la vie à la campagne. Nelly et Vincent sont des hôtes super sympas et accueillants, ils m'ont présenté à leurs amis et leur fille, m'emmené à des évènements culturels... on a joué aux cartes ensemble,… read more
This is the perfect place to find peace, get in touch with yourself and nature, to think and develop.
It's hard to describe the unique atmosphere of the village, but I have never felt at home so quickly in any other workaway. Which is mostly thanks… read more
J'ai passé un temps très agréable chez eux, la propriété est magnifique et j'ai surtout aimé les petits moutons. En plus, je n'ai jamais vu un jardin potager aussi grand, et on a mangé et transformé beaucoup de légumes frais du jardin, ce qui était une super expérience pour moi (on a aussi fait une… read more
She was a real support.. Merci chère Kristin!
Thank you for all your hard work and contribution and every success for the future!
He is kind, humorous and makes everyone feel welcome, plus he is very knowledgeable about the area and Ireland's history so it was a pleasure to talk to and learn from him. Keith is also generous with days off and genuinely wants you to enjoy your stay, so you really couldn't wish for a better host.… read more
