Welcome!
My name is Roger. I'm a 38 year old guy from Switzerland.
The last 8 years I worked as a volunteer/paid worker in Italy, Germany, Hungary and Switzerland in different fields.
I helped in gardens and on farms, supported families in their household, cooked in small and big kitchens, lived the good live in Budapest in IT support and part-time german teaching, also volunteered there in different hostels, helped with renovation projects and animal care on many places.
I like getting to know the surroundings and history of a place.
I also like cooking for friends, family and neighbours. Fast-fresh-healthy .. mostly european/thai style.
I can help you with language learning. I am an experienced language teacher and still teach online.
Sometimes I need time just for myself in silence and then again I love group events of any kind.
Greetings!
Roger

He adapted very quickly to the local conditions and worked with a lot of initiative.
He was very self-organized and found tasks and solutions independently, so that it was no problem at all that I often came home late from work.

The work was very rich in variety, the talks with Eva interesting and full of humour, the landscape is stunning: the alps are perfectly aligned about 50km away, its surreal

Roger is a very social and friendly man, very calm, smiling, talkative, trustful and honest. We enjoy every time we are together and our kids love him. For me that says everything : Roger is a man to enjoy Workaway exchange with.
Always wishing you a good time in life, Roger!
