Hi everyone,
my name is Lukas, I just finished school in Germany and want to go on a gap year, before starting university.
I am a very nature and animal-loving person, I really enjoy working with both, which brings me great joy.
At my home in Germany, we own a lot of animals like horses, cats, chickens etc. so I am quite used to dealing with animals and taking care of them.
-For 3 months I worked at a Husky farm in the north of Norway, where I took care of the dogs (feeding, cleaning etc.) , did some practical Work like painting, firewood and some repairs. I also learned to work with dogs and how to drive a dogsled.
-Another 3 months I spend in a community/eco-village in the south of Sweden near Karlstad there my focus was mainly on taking care of the chickens and ducks (feeding, cleaning, collecting and sorting the eggs), preparing firewood for the next winter (cutting down trees and processing them) and other carpentry work. From time to time I also worked in the kitchen of the small cafe, which is run by the community and helped out in the garden with planting new vegetables.
- For 1 month I also did a workaway in Mongolia, where I worked on a small ranch with cows and horses. There I helped with daily tasks like milking and feeding but we also did other projects like planting flowers for selling, catching and branding the wild horses and doing repairs on the ranch and in the neighborhood.
I also love to discover new things and to educate myself. Sport, which I prefer to do outside, always brings me to rest and helps me to relax when I am stressed.
Since I am a very open and curious person, I have already been able to gather a lot of impressions on previous trips and broaden my horizons bit by bit, which I hope I can do even better at Workaway.
For my work & travel, I hope to learn a lot about the Scandinavian countries, the culture and nature on site and of course to help the hosts with their work. I would consider myself a quick lerner and I am sure, I can be a helping hand wherever help is needed :)Intereses

I am always open to learn new languages in order to communicate better with the residents on site and to better understand their culture. Right now, I am also learning a little bit of Swedish and norwegian.Habilidades y conocimientos que quiero compartir o aprender

I like dealing with animals because we have a lot of animals at home (horses, a cat, chickens, etc.), which I have often looked out for over several days alone. So I am very familiar with dealing with animals and I know the everyday tasks that animals and the surrounding life bring with them.

As a result, I already have good manual skills, which are important and useful in a life on a farm. I also have good computer skills, basic programming skills and a drivers license for cars and trailers.Edad

The people on and around the farm are super lovely and welcoming so I felt at home right from the start.
The work varies a lot with the seasons. In winter I worked a lot on the firewood, putting down trees and… read more
The first week I was alone at the ranch and helped her father and a worker with the daily tasks like taking care of the cows and horses with milking, feeding, watering and looking for cows when they got lost outside. Communication was sometimes confusing since both don't speak english very well, but after… read more
