Description
Hello everyone😊
my name is Katharina Geßner and I am a 22 years old girl from Germany. Currently, I am completing an exchange semester at Javeriana Cali, Colombia.
I truely love the Latin American culture and that‘s why I decided to extend my stay and travel to Ecuador, Peru and maybe Bolivia and Chile after my semester finishes (End of May).
I am a very active, positive, funny and sporty person who loves to learn new things and get in touch with local people.
Already in 2019, I traveled for seven months in Australia and I loved my Workaway experience. During this period I had the chance to work as an Au Pair in Sydney, help in a caravan park in Canberra, support a chook farm on Kangaroo Island, as well as to live on a camel farm in Alice Springs.
Apart from that, I collected three years of experience as a soccer coach for younger children, and I worked for two months in a surfcamp in France. Playing soccer, volleyball, ping-pong, going surfing or skating and doing sports and playing music in general are a big part of my life.
I am looking forward to get again involved in a community and support, learn and exchange knowledge while spending an amzing time together.

Staying with Mercedes and her kids was a great experience! Right from the beginning they made me feel part of the family and were helpful, friendly and sharing in every way. During holiday time I spent a lot of time with the kids playing Monopoly, Basketball, Soccer, etc... Every second week, when they stayed with their dad, I used to take the… read more

Our stay at Julia, Marcus, Kit, Avara, Siggie and the camels was great!
They were really welcoming and flexible. Apart from the work we had a lot of time to explore the area by bike, go for a hike and chill with the camels. Julia always tried to provide us with one Highlight a day ;) Even though we were just staying for a week we could join a… read more

Our stay on Kangaroo Island was great!!
The whole Fryer Family welcomed us warmly and always tried to make the best out of our stay. The work was easy going and we mostly helped with light duties and played with the children.
Apart from that, we also got an impression how the Egg Farm is run and it was very cool to help with the chicken!

Katharina has been an amazing aupair to my girls. She is respectful, thoughtful and very friendly. Her stay with us was great as she was always happy to help and play with the kids. We really enjoyed her company, chats about her daily adventures, and her pizza! We loved that she became part of the family and is happy to come and see us at the end… read more

Staying with Tansy, Gemma and Kiki was a great experience and I really want to thank them for amazing three month!!
All three of them made me feel part of the family and beside my normal working hours we also spend time together going to the beach, watching a movie in an open air cinema, participating in a „women soccer gala day“, etc.

Firstly, I want to mention that I am a person who is really open minded, organised and cooperative.
Furthermore, I am very sporty and musical and I can adapt myself fastly.
As a soccer trainer for younger boys, I already collected many experiences in interacting with children.
Additionally, I was the student representative at our school and also the senior contact person for younger people and that’s why I already learned to be responsible for a big group of people representing their interests.
Apart from this, I have also mechanical skills and like to do some craft. While traveling in Australia I did a lot of gardening and general household tasks. If there is something I am not familiar with I am open minded to learn it ;)
You can always rely on me and, which is also important, have fun with me.Âge
