Descripción

Hello, we are Sofia and Mutlu :)
We are excited to explore France in September. We are based in Hamburg, where Sofia works as a subtitler for media products and as a teacher for German as a Second Language. Mutlu works as a social worker in a youth residential group, where he takes care of adolescents that live there. We are looking forward to broadening our horizons by sharing everyday life with new people.

Sofia is especially interested in learning about alternative communities and ways of life in rural areas, and finds that inspiring. Learning new languages opens up new ways of perceiving the world, which she finds invigorating. Apart from that, spending time in nature, for example by going hiking, is the best way for her to relax. She enjoys learning about the local flora and would like to expand her knowledge of permaculture. Another way she balances herself and her body is through yoga, and she'd love to share this with others. Moreover, to get to know people, Sofia enjoys drawing portraits of them. We are both interested in making music, with Mutlu being interested in the guitar and Sofia in the ukulele. This recently discovered passion will accompany us throughout our trip, as we plan on bringing our instruments with us :). Sofia already worked in two different workaway projects, in 2018 on a vineyard in France near Cahors, and last year in a permaculture project on Corsica.

Mutlu is a calm and open-minded person who enjoys having a peace of mind by listening to good music, watching arthouse movies, and spending time in nature. For about a year now, he's been learning to play the guitar and loves spending his free time practicing. He also enjoys cooking a nice meal and likes to share his cooking skills with other people. That being said, he would also love to learn new ideas and ways of preparing meals from other cultures.
Mutlu is very interested in helping other people pursue their vision and would be happy to make a small contribution to their way of life. For 6 months in 2024, he was participating in a few different workaway projects already and had a wonderful time meeting new people with various views on life.

During our Workaway, we'd love to contribute to construction projects, gardening and animal care, as well as other practical tasks.

Que habilidades tienes?

Mutlu: Throughout my early adulthood till now I've worked in different areas. Helping people in need was and will always be my main thing when I'm not traveling, although I would definitely be interested in doing that as well sometime :)
I've worked with children in institutional care, in a shared living facility for adults with severe mental illnesses, for adolescents in search for help with personal life issues (internship), I volunteered as a German teacher for refugees at the red cross and I volunteered as a freetime companion for people with disabilities.
Also I've worked as a mailman, in supermarkets and I worked as a stage hand for a few bigger events in my city.

During my past workaway experiences I've worked in private gardens/fields. My work there was mostly physical stuff like planting, weeding, mulching, loosening the ground, shaving wooden poles, carrying heavy stuff around and of course cooking and cleaning (I love to cook btw.). I also helped with the construction of a mudhouse and other small construction projects, mostly under guidance.

Sofia:
I have worked as a waitress and kitchen assistant at events, as well as in bars, restaurants, and cafés. I have experience in animal care, including working with cats, chickens, and horses, as well as experience in childcare in both private and institutional settings. I have volunteered on various projects, including initiatives for people with chronic diseases and disabilities, environmental education projects, and teaching German as a second language to refugees. I currently provide educational mentoring for young refugees.

My previous Workaway experience includes working on a vineyard near Cahors and at a permaculture project in Corsica.
