On my way to Germany

Description

My name is Daan Alea and I am a 25 year old girl from The Netherlands.

For the past year I have been travelling around and working at several different places to learn hands on from people who are passionate about their job. Mostly I worked as carpenter. I have built interiors of vans and ships. In the past two years I have sailed a couple of times on cargo sailships and I would love to become a boatsman at some point. Futhermore, I did some DIY projects at my parent's place. They live in an old farm house with a big garden which need a lot of love and attention. My interests now mostly lie in working on ships and with wood or other natural resources such as clay and wool.

I finished the International Bachelor of Arts and Culture Studies in Rotterdam in 2019. After that I changed from office jobs to physical labour, which for me is so much more satisfying than staying behind a laptop the whole day. Though, I would like to combine my passion and eager for physical labour with my interests in arts and culture in some way.

I am looking for different ways of living. The 'standard' way of living seems alienating from nature, oneself and the people around oneself. It seems lonely and excesively luxurious to me. I would like to live a simple life, connected to my natural and social surroundings, minimalisitic and sustainable. If I need something, or something I have breaks, I make/fix it myself. I try not to consume too much and I take good care of my belongings, so they can stay with me for as long as possible after which they can have another life with someone else.

One day I hope to be carpenter, sailor, herbalist, wool spinner, translator and tourguide of some sort. I am multipassionate and do not wish to focus solely on one particular field. Self development and eternal learning are important to me. With my genuine curiosity and friendliness I know I will learn something from every workaway experience to come.

Autres infos...

If I have the chance I like to go bouldering.

I am quite an extraverted person. However, I need my time alone. Please do not take it as an offence if I go for walks on my own or if I dive deep in a book. I need that time to be full of energy again for a next assignment or adventure together!
