Descripción
I am Jakob from Germany and I travelled through Canada in 2020 for half a year. Even though Covid was around, I stayed with fantastic hosts, several of which I‘m still in contact with. In 2024, I‘m back in Canada with the aim to both reconnect and discover new places.

Although I love being in the big cities of this world, Canada is about nature and people for me. I am a vegetarian and care a lot about living a sustainable and anti-consumptionist life style.

I love learning about culture, watching movies, reading books, listening to music and talking about and reviewing all of that. I also have that trait of really getting into everything I get to know better. Which is why I practice judo and aikido, play the guitar, practice card flourishes, learn Italian, do some graphic design, invented card and board games and a lot more. Whether something sticks with me or doesn't, I have learned or experienced something new. And I love that!

Que habilidades tienes?
I've done an internship in a digital freight-forwarding startup and some of my hobbies involve using a computer, so most of my skills lie there. I am well-versed with Google Docs, Slides and Sheets as well as Microsoft Word, Powerpoint and Excel. I also know how to handle Adobe Illustrator, InDesign, Photoshop and Salesforce. If you need help with basic computer stuff, I can probably help you.
Having spent 2 months working on a homestead in Ontario, I know quite a bit about gardening, woodworking and forestry. I am a fast learner, so I don't mind tackling tasks that I've got no prior experience in..
Prior to the internship, I finished my A-level while also working as a food service worker in a food truck, sometimes in longer-than-legal shifts, so I am quite persistent and will always work as hard as needed to get things done.
I also love cooking and would like to improve my skills. I'd be delighted to cook for you (nothing German though, 'cause the German cuisine is meaty and just not good ^^)

Staying on the pepper farm with this lovely family has been a great experience! I felt welcome from the very start and had great conversations, funny moments and unique experiences. Tasks were very diverse: Playing with little Nynka helped improve my French while working outside kept me in shape. They make you feel part of the family and thus I'd… read more

We really enjoyed having Jakob stay with us. He is a pleasure to have around, and was monumentally helpful to us in so many ways. He stayed with us about a month, and in that time he helped with a very broad range of tasks : gardening, house cleaning, book layout, window washing and more. We are in the prices of selling our house which meant quite… read more

Keltie and Paul were phenomenal hosts! I felt welcome from the very first day and they made sure I had a pleasant stay.
I've never had more versatile tasks than here: They ranged from gardening, cleaning and maintaining over housesitting to designing a photo book.
Besides work, we had great conversations (Keltie actually helped me decide for a… read more

We really enjoyed hosting Jakob and are grateful for all he did in the weeks that he was here. He is wise beyond his years and very easy to be around as well as a great conversationalist. He was very flexible and understanding as well as able to work well without supervision. We miss him already!

Although I only stayed for two weeks, I had a wonderful time here! Tamara went above and beyond to make sure I have a pleasant stay. The working hours were very flexible and there was a good balance between work and free time.
After the first few days, I already felt like part of the family: We had great dinners together, interesting conversations… read more

Jakob is a wonderful young man and it was an pleasure to have him stay. He very respectful and thoughtful. He was able to help in so many ways I can't thank him enough. There was maintenance and some repairs as well as getting a few things done I hadn't been able to do. I certainly would welcome Jakob back again.

Robin was a great host that made me feel welcome and comfortable. The work that needed to be done was exceptionally versatile, ranging from painting a sign over cleaning the terrace deck to sorting through a cabin. Robin was very talkative and told me a lot about Saltspring and the islanders. We enjoyed cooking meals together and talking about… read more

I spent a month with this wonderful family and had a great time with them! My work activities ranged from cleaning, sanding and painting a balcony over polishing their boat to just spending time with Camille. Work never felt dull and the daily hours were perfect.

Claire and Mike chose to host me despite Covid-19, and I am glad to have found them. They are incredibly interesting people with lots of knowledge and experience. The work I had to do was versatile and interesting; and it was a great ratio of work and free time. During my stay, I got to learn a lot about gardening, woodworking, etc.; and also got… read more
