Description

Hello there! Thank you for checking out my profile. Hope you find something interesting.

Who, what and why?:
----------------------------------------
I am Silas, a 24 year old soul, looking for untraditionally ways of educating myself. I am a seeker by heart. And what I am seeking right now is a completely new chapter for me. Rather than books, thoughts and all the screen time in between. I want to educate myself with tools, my hands and nature. And as anyone ever who wanted a change. I am searching for someone to learn me their ways. I am motivated, very loyal and when you really get to know me very analytical. I thrive in a active lifestyle and love to play sports with whoever. I have a natural way with kids and love to form meaningful relationships. Although I have very little experience I would love to learn about self-sufficient, especially in terms of growing my own food and permaculture. My main reason for travelling is because my daily and comfortable life in Denmark grew to be more and more meaningless to me. And I therefore seek to live a different life, where nature is a lot closer and I can get new perspectives on how to live a good life. Which I can make use of on my path and ideally get inspired from. So pull out all your knowledge, because here I come!
----------------------------------------

Interests I already have:
★ Football/Sports - I love football and have been a Chelsea F.C. fan for 14 years. I still play reguarly every week, which I enjoy. American football, Dart, Cycling, E-sport is also something I find a lot of interest in.
★ Being a vegan - Altough this probally classifies as more than a interest, I would like to know how other vegans go about life. What food they rely on, what they do for a living and so on...
★Hiking/Cycling - A good walk, a hike to Germany or cycling to Norway you name it. I am on.


Interests, which I would like to explore:
★ Selfsufficiency - In generel I would love to learn different branches from a beginner level
╰┈➤ In particular gardening and growing my own food. Maybe grow some mushrooms or plant seed and harvest vegetables, even making beds for gardening would be great.
★ Meditation - I have always been fascinated by monks and their ways of meditating, and used to be good at finding my own calmness in the busy weekdays, but somehow I lost some of it as time went on. So this is definitely a thing I would like to improve on. Also I enjoy winter bathing and sauna.
★ Alternative lifestyle - I always had huge expectations for myself and my future. Recently I came to realize how far away I was from my ideas. So I would enjoy getting to learn, how to live closer to nature and then from there reintegrate myself back into modern society.
★ How to make homemade food from scratch - In particular making bread and growing mushrooms is something which I find intriguing.

A little more about me:
----------------------------------------
╰┈➤ My first workaway experience was at a english camp in italy, where I was a activity coordinator for two weeks.
╰┈➤ I was born in California, but have lived in Denmark the most of my life.
╰┈➤ I have walked from Aarhus to Flensborg last summer and before that I cycled from Aalborg to Oslo with a friend.
╰┈➤ Voluntarily took my military duty in the danish army, which I will never forget.
╰┈➤ Studied two years of philosophy in university, where I learned so much!
╰┈➤ I have been eating a vegan diet for the past five years, which really opened my eyes for all the wonderful food we have but rarely use.
╰┈➤ I can be very observing at first, when meeting new people and settings. But as I get to know you more, you will quickly become someone I care about and want to be a reliable person for.
╰┈➤ Worked with childcare previously for about 2,5+ years, in a kindergarten, school and special needs school
╰┈➤ I would love to try any kind of meditation or yoga as I really find this helpful.
╰┈➤ I have a football coach license (UEFA B1)
╰┈➤ I have very strong legs and I am used to cycling 45+ kilometers every week.

Quelles sont vos compétences ?

I can speak fluent Danish and English and have studied Spanish and German in school. I have been in a exchange program through my gymnasium in Madrid, where I used some of my school-learned Spanish.

In terms of skills I think that I always have had a good way of communicating and playing with kids. I like to learn, challenge and observe them in a safe and relaxed way, which is why I have educated myself as a Football coach and that my last two jobs were in a school.

A natural skill of mine is to solve problems through logical and cooperative thinking and I want to believe I can face every challenge with a smile on :))

Not afraid to try new things especially construction or gardening. As I really wanna explore my own capabilities in these areas and hopefully get inspired to do it on my own.

I currently don't have a driver license, but I can come a long way with a bike, on foot or by train.

Autres infos...

My biggest wish is to find a role model, teacher, or mentor, what ever you wanna call it, to get inspired from and learn their ways during my workaway experiences! If so I would be over the moon if I could stay for longer.
