Description

Originally from Germany, I moved to the UK after giving up my job as a teacher of Music and English at a Rudolf Steiner School. I have since trained as a gardener and now work for myself, maintaining private people's gardens in Scotland. My dream for the future is to run a secluded holiday cottage or be be part of a team running a spiritual retreat centre, close to nature and the sea, or near woodlands and a river, with an organic garden... This year however I would like to travel and offer my help and skills to likeminded people, while experiencing different places first hand, learning more about renovation of buildings, permaculture etc... I am not a vegetarian, but I eat very little meat or dairy, so wouldn't mind to stay with people who are vegans. Do get in touch if you think we could each benefit from an exchange!

Quelles sont vos compétences ?

I am a gardener and love teaching English and German (one to one or small groups). I have got some experience in catering and hospitality/ tourist industry, good with people, fluent in English and German, learning Portuguese, quite a lot of childcare experience, not skilled but interested in working with wood and building work, have done some dry stone walling in England and Scotland. When I was young I used to horse ride, so wouldn't mind helping with horses...

Autres infos...

I'd prefer to be mainly working on the land, gardening, farming, building etc. but wouldn't mind doing a bit in the house or with children if needed. I quite enjoy baking and cooking but not too confident cooking for large numbers.
