Description
Hey!
My name is Anika. Welcome to my profile.
Here are some characteristics about myself that I like to contribute:
💠 mindful/attentive, careful & sensitive
💠 respectful, trustful, reliable & responsibly
💠 organized, foresighted & self-initiative
💠 different thinking, varied & individual
Even it's completely worthwhile, traveling is mainly challenging for me.
⚜️ I believe in experience as knowledge, in self responsibility, in individualism, diversity and complexity of man. ⚜️
I don't like dogmas - independent of the topic (religion, spirituality, food, health, environment, ...).
Regarding to interpersonal contact a mix of deep talks, mindful communication & a humorous, relaxed atmosphere is something I very appreciate.
I like authentic social contact. An environment where it's ok (or even better: normal) to speak about uncomfortable feelings and have space to feel them, is something which suits me best.
The way you will experience me depends on the respective situation. In new situations / with unknown people I am often a bit insecure & cautious til I get used to.
🍃🍃🍃_________________________🍃🍃🍃
Independent, natural, slow, simple, conscious & emotion-based lifestyles attract me.
🍃🍃🍃_________________________🍃🍃🍃
Usually I like quiet, slow & early mornings. During the day I often need quiete a lot ME-time just with myself in silence.
I like to do things with full attention, calm & precisely.
And if it feels harmonious inside and out, I also like it loud and expressive sometimes. Life is diverse, just like us.
Excited to meet you!
Anika 💃🏻

Quelles sont vos compétences ?
🔵 SOFT SKILLS: 🔵
🟦 profound experiences in dealing with one another in an appreciative and respectful manner (includes NVC)
🟦 deep experience in taking limits, needs and feelings of others (and my own) seriously and, if wished, to have a calm, mindful and honest exchange about them in a self responsible way
🟦 deep experience with unpleasant feelings, so usually able to support others who find themselves in emotionally difficult situations
🔵 My soft skills very depend on my level of feeling safe.
🔵 I always try to communicate as clearly and openly as I can in the situation. And I am learning constantly in contact with humans.

🟩 good amount of basic experience with general gardening and wild herbs/eatable plants
🟩 a bit of experience with permaculture
🟩 a bit of experience with (tropical) fruit trees/palms

🟨 good amount of basic experience in animal care with different species (but mostly dogs, cats and chickens 💛)

⬜ basic experience in renovation - e.g. with painting walls, laying carpet, sanding, ...
🟤⚪ I'm not afraid to get my hands dirty, I'll just need detailed instructions on the most things and time to learn.

🟪 experience in creating a website with wordpress elementor
🟪 experience with designing flyers and posters

Amanda and Kenny are welcoming people, sharing what they have, also their interesting life stories. Both have a great sense of humour and especially with Amanda you can perfectly learn how to swear, curse and insult in the English language. For me that was refreshing! 😄

It was such a great pleasure to meet Jamel! He is an attentive, calm, caring & flexible host, a tough, experienced, relaxed & warmhearted person with a sense of humour.

She’s hard working.
She loves animals. She gives animals the space to come to her and because of her calmness and good energy they feel it safe.

From the start I felt very welcome. I was able to get to know almost the entire family in my first days (because it was Easter), which was a real enrichment. So many great people, all very open and interested. I felt like part of the family. - What a special experience.

10 days at the farm with Fran - short but intense:
I helped out with rebuild an old stone house in a traditional ecological way. It was tough physically work and I learned a lot. The project really motivated me. It was so much pleasure and so challenging at the same time. Fran and me were working with the two of us in a fix routine,… read more
It is a rather atypical workaway without a fixed framework. Josh was very generous, relaxed, helpful, outgoing, funny & flexible most of the time. I slept in a caravan and overall felt very free and could follow my own rhythm. There were no routines and everything was agreed upon at short… read more
Here I worked a lot in the garden, pruned trees and ivy, pulled a bit of weeds, looked after the animals, gave them lots of love and painted an outside wall. The animals are very friendly and adorable. Jaqueline truly appreciated my work, what was a great feeling!

In a certain way, I felt connected to Steph from the first contact. We had a little more contact before my stay, which I really liked. I very quickly felt at home here.
I found Steph to be generous, considerate, humorous, easy-going and intelligent. And above all, she has a big heart! She communicates honestly and openly,… read more
There is a serenity in her daily life, structured by the challenges she sets herself.
She has a true awareness of the environment which she explores with a love of life and its experiences....even challenging ones.
I think, and hope, she found the work here, with the birds and garden, fulfilling.… read more
I experienced K&É as hard-working people who still know how to enjoy life. You can go stealing horses with both of them (if you have enough energy 🤠). They have a great sense of humor and are very close to nature, which was inspiring for me. They are also extremely flexible in all areas.
I was invited everywhere… read more
