Mon statut

Description

Hello, I'm Stefanie from Germany. During 2019, I have decided that I not only want to see more of Southern Africa, but also live there. The Corona year 2020 has delayed these plans a bit, but now it's time to get going again! I am therefore now looking for volunteer positions in South Africa.

During and after my studies I have already travelled a lot. I studied business administration and worked in different jobs in the management and administration sector in Germany. But now I really want to see more of the bush and work in lodge management in the future. Therefore, I hope to get more opportunities through Workaway to broaden my experience.

I love the outdoor life and enjoy the beauty of nature. So I don't mind rather simple circumstances at all. I like to visit new places and get to know people.

Quelles sont vos compétences ?

I have some computer skills, especially working with Microsoft Office. Moreover, I am good in drawing and crafting, which is why I recently started my own illustrating company.

In 2019 I completed the training for the FGASA Field Guide NQF 2 (previously Level 1) and the theory of the FGASA Trails Guide Apprentice. Since then I volunteered in a camp in Namibia and a lodge in Souh Africa. I helped with the check-in of the guests and serving them during the meals and at the bar, I supervised the housekeeping and supported the kitchen as well as the maintenance teams. If a guide was needed, I jumped in or joined activites to translate for German guests.

Before I decided to train as a Field Guide, I worked in a research centre as executive coordinator of the Administrative Director. I've got a Master of Science in business administration. After university I worked in the areas of project management, cost controlling and organisation & processes for a few years.

Autres infos...

There's nothing like good company :) I love to hear other people's stories, and to laugh and joke around. If possible, I prefer a longer stay, as you get to know the people and their culture better and you can learn more about the region.
