Description
Hi, my name is Maya. Many things make me happy but animals and fresh air are two of my favorite. We have a dog called Kayla. I'm studying biology at university, hopefully, I'll be done by June :) I love both the sea and the mountains. I've spent most of my life living in Maresme, where the sea and the forest were next door. Now, where I'm studying (Vic) I'm surrounded by fields that weren't as common but I love just as much. Traveling has got to be one of my top favorite things to do if not the top one, especially by camping car (because I don't quite enjoy flying), be it with my friend or family. I'm also a big fan of sports. I've done artistic gymnastics for a long time but I also enjoy swimming, hiking, dancing, skiing, yoga,... I'm also really into crafting, anything art-related, and cooking! Lastly, I love kids!! I love having conversations with kids, grown-ups never ask me what my third favorite color is.

I love teaching, especially kids. I've given English lessons to my neighbor's kids and have also done some babysitting in English for non-native English families. I am interested in learning French. My dad is from Belgium but speaks English with me because his parents are English (UK). He also knows how to speak French because they lived in Belgium, that's why I want to improve my French! But I'm always interested in learning new words in different languages.

Quelles sont vos compétences ?
In general, I consider myself a patient and empathic person, that's why I'm good with kids. I'm hard working person (especially if I'm passionate about something). I'm also good at crafts and can be somewhat creative! I'm a vegan (but not strictly and always open-minded about it) and related to that I'm also good at cooking. I can also be quite organized and good at trying to find solutions for different problems.

Autres infos...
At home, we've never had a TV, simply because my parents never wanted one. Instead, we have loads of board games. I enjoy playing board games. I find that it's a great activity to play with friends, family or with new people (because it's a way of getting to know each other). Some of my favourite ones are The Mind, Les Aventuriers du Rail, Sietler, Pnademic, Skipbo... I also enjoy camping (maybe because I was in skouts for a few years) and I've always loved challenges. We have a dog shelter where I used to go to very often to help the care keepers with the dogs and cats.

Laissé par le workawayer () pour l'hôte (Join our family living on a ...)

I spent five weeks at their place and I really enjoyed staying there! The location itself is beautiful, surrounded by enormous fields, trees, and of course, the house, the old watermill, and the little lake. I loved taking the dogs out in the morning, because that’s when I really got to take in the view and the sunrise.

After that, I took care of… read more the other animals. The horses are exceptional. Even someone afraid of horses would want to touch them! They’re calm, collected, and come to you asking for scratches. I mainly cleaned the paddock, prepared the hay (it needed to be steamed to remove dust that caused one horse to cough), and filled up their water.

The chickens, oh, the chickens! Such funny, curious, and clever creatures. My favorite was the independent one Tante Fritzi. She just does whatever she wants, a true cool chicken. The ducks share the same space and get along well. I’d feed them, clean their nesting areas, collect the eggs, and refill their water.

I usually tried to finish everything before lunch, but each day was a little different. Sometimes I cooked dinner, cleaned the kitchen, looked after the kids, or helped with errands like shopping.

As for the family, truly kind people. Bruno is a sharp one-year-old, obsessed with shoes and absolutely adorable. Taavi is, as Lisa perfectly said, a real “laberababer”, observant, clever, and fun. You connect with him right away.

Lisa is what I imagine Germans mean by a “Powerfrau”. She and Tore really get things done! She’s outgoing, caring, and creative. She even invited me to join her for sports once a week and to go horse riding, which was great fun. Tore is quite the handyman, he taught himself quite a few things and was often busy working downstairs renovating so they can move in by Christmas. He's very easy to talk to and answered all the questions I had about the renovations.

I love how they always include the kids in daily life instead of leaving them out for convenience. I always received everything I needed. The food was delicious, and my room was a private, respected space. They also put me in contact with people who offered me jobs on the weekends, which was great!

It might be a busier, more stressful time for them now with all the work going on, but once things settle and the kids are a bit older, that place will be even more amazing, if that’s even possible. I’m so excited and proud of them for pushing through.

Thank you so much for everything, and I hope I can come back someday to see how it’s changed, the place and the kids!

Lots of love,

Maya

I am so lucky to have experienced my first workaway here. If I'd known before I would have stayed longer than a week. I love how much trust Antonia has towards you, which goes hand in hand with freedom. She immediately makes you feel welcome and you can talk openly to her. It's nice to see with how much love they treat the animals. Every animal… read more

Maya verbrachte eine Woche bei uns und war eine super Hilfe! Sie war immer mit Freude und Herz dabei und kümmerte sich sehr gut um die Tiere. Sie ist sehr selbstständig, verantwortungsvoll und unkompliziert. Trotz des kurzen Aufenthalts war sie für alle eine Bereicherung und wir würden uns freuen sie bald wieder begrüßen zu dürfen.
Ich wünsche dir… read more
