Description
Hey, my name is Kilian.
I am a high school graduate from Germany currently taking a gap year to explore Canada.
I arrived in Vancouver in October and now want to travel around more, to explore Canada's nature and culture.
In my free time I really enjoy hiking and riding my gravel bike. I often do short trips and longer journeys frequently. When I get the chance I like to go skiing. One summer I got my windsurfing licence, another I tried diving. I love swimming and other water or outdoor activities.
Moreover, I enjoy going camping. I sleep in tents, hammocks or just under a tarp. I've been on many trips for multiple days or weeks in a row with just my backpack or bicycle.
I also love spending a lot of quality time with my friends doing that, whether it's on a walk, a longer trip or a vacation.
Inside I really enjoy playing board and card games and listen to music or watch movies to relax. If my wallet allows, bowling, lasertagging, go-karting and a lot more is in the picture - I am happy as long as there is some variety.
My intellectual interests are very diverse, too. I am excited about learning about all natural sciences as well as traditional and modern technology. I want to fully understand how something works. I got a little bit into programming and also networks, but I learned a lot more about basic office programs by doing accounting and organising-jobs for my hobbies.
As an elderly scout, I help planning events an organising the club generally. I am the accountant and a board member.
Moreover, I teach swimming from time to time or do jobs as a teamer for children's holiday programs.
With my friend I also organized the largest part of the graduation event for our whole class.
I can imagine a variety of environments for a workaway experience, with nice people to also spend time or hang out with sometimes. I am looking foreward to sharing experiences, exchanging cultures and hobbies and having fun (working). However, I am looking for a place with a lot of nature to explore.
I got pets myself and would love to meet yours.

I speak English and German fluently and know some basic French. I'd be glad to get a chance improving my French and would be happy to exchange my knowledge about English and German in return. I just started learning some Japanese as well.

Quelles sont vos compétences ?
For work I am open to almost everything - from carpentry and mechanical jobs over farming to the tourism business.
I can imagine doing some housekeeping, and watching children is no problem at all, but not as my main job (not like an Au-Pair).
Before my journey started, I have worked multiple different jobs. Next to my school activities I supervised children in all-day school, taught swimming to children and adults and did voluntary work as an elderly scout.
After school I also prepared and executed a two-week workshop for a children's holiday program.
Moreover, I worked as a lighting operator for live music and as an assistant event technician.
At school, I was busy planning the graduating party for the whole class of our year, being active in the students parliament and the school's event technology team.
I am comfortable with all kinds of hands-on tools and I am good at reparing all kinds of things from your WiFi-router to your sink.
I am a dedicated and motivated worker. My strengths include coordination, organization, analytical, logical and creative thinking, teaching and coaching, soft skills, all with practical experience.
I am very good with office programs like word or excel, know how to analyse and organise data and do accounting and bookkeeping.
I have learned to work with many different people and communicate with them. That includes reflecting on work, trying to find compromises and solve lots of problems to make everyone happy.
