Descripción

My name is Marina,
My languages are fluent German and English, basics in french and italian (understanding) and some Spanish vocabulary.
Retired at the end of 2014, I was used to work in a medical practise in radiotherapy. Raising my children while working kept me busy many years. The two boys are Engeneers now and done with their studies.
Having my family in Berlin and around Dortmund, Germany, I used to spend my time in Berlin during the summer and fall, renovating my gardenhouse including insolation, painting outside and making my own wine and jams which are always different from standard. Keeping the garden in shape is one of my favorite tasks. At my flat I love baking cakes who are sometimes made up for special ocassions in various shapes and colours.
Having interest in traveling and music (classic, Jazz, Opera and any well written music) I could also be helpful with older people, driving them, talking, reading and playing like Rummycub.
During the winter 2023/24 I would love to travel to more southern destinations, like France, Espana or Portugal again, helping in gardening, conversation, cooking, teaching my mother language German/Deutsch or English, being a granny in a household. I love cycling, playing Tennis and fishing. My favorite dogs were two Rhodesian Ridgeback ladies in Portugal, the chicken and sheep on the quinta. Caretaking of those animals and pruning trees was also one of my favorite jobs while the landlady was on several business trips.
2015/2016 I drove about 14.000 km in my campervan from Berlin to Portugal and back and enjoyed every minute.
The winter of 2023/24 I like to being a housesitter or company for a family and do gardening, teaching german and english. Traveling now with a micro campervan I would like to get housing for the time of my stay. Looking forward to work 3-4 hours on 5 days a week, being flexible...

Algo más...

I could be a companion for elderly people, reading and discussing as well as working with children. Always liked to travel. I worked last as leading person at the administration of a Radiotherapy (hospital). After retirement I am open to new experiences, hoping to learn more from people in different countries and being in the fresh air. I love dogs and cats and other small animals, never experienced horses or other large animals. But ... I am curious to learn much more even in my age 👍🏻🎾🙂.
