I'd like to go hiking and climbing in the summer/autumn and skiing in the winter months here. So if anybody wants to join for a hike just message me. I also want to learn how to surf.

Description

Hi, my name is Vici and I'm from Austria.

I'm finishing my Bachelor's degree in Earth Sciences and I thought it would be good to take a break before I start my Master's degree. That's why I'm now in New Zealand doing a workaway.

Ever since a friend of mine went to New Zealand when I was in kindergarten, I've always wanted to come here. I especially like the varied landscape with mountains and oceans.

I like to do sports like skiing, hiking, playing soccer and surfing (I want to learn better) and I am always happy to receive tips on hiking routes, ski resorts or good surf spots.

I love being outdoors and being physically active and would like to incorporate this into my work.

As well as sport, I enjoy reading, drawing, photography and painting. At home I am also involved in several clubs, such as a music band and a soccer club.

My favourite thing about travelling is getting to know new cultures and eating my way through the local cuisine. Through Workaway I hope to meet many nice and open people, improve my English and experience the culture of New Zealand.

Quelles sont vos compétences ?

My studies require long days in the field in all weathers, so I need to be physically fit and enjoy working in the countryside.

I've been working part-time in a wine tavern for 3 years as a waitress and kitchen assistant.

For the last 5 years I have been working in the sales department of an NGO during the holidays and have gained a lot of skills in dealing with customers, managing a team and generally working with lots of different people.

This year I have also worked part-time in data management for our state government. This has given me experience in handling large amounts of data and setting up an organisational system.

On our home farm I've worked with animals (mostly pigs and chickens), done some tractor work, helped with the potato and pumpkin harvest and quality control, and done some gardening.

On a recent Work&Travel trip I worked on a cattle farm for a couple of months, doing everything from feeding animals and helping with births to cleaning the barn, maintaining and repairing tractors, driving tractors to harvest grass and deliver fertiliser, mending fences, cleaning and cooking. I especially liked working with the animals and the tractors. And I really enjoyed spending time with the family, especially the children, and was able to help a bit with babysitting.

I have a driving licence for cars, motorbikes and tractors.

I also have experience with photo editing programs like Lightroom and video editing and could help you with that.

I have also been playing music instruments like the flute and the saxophone for more than 10 years now and could teach you if you're interested.

Autres infos...

As well as doing lots of sports I really like watching soccer matches, tennis or F1.

I enjoy cooking and baking, but my skills aren't the best, so I am always happy to learn.

Because of my studies I am interested in the different geology in the world and especially volcanoes I find very interesting and would like to visit some here.

I have a few pets (3 cats and 2 dogs) at home and would also enjoy if a workaway stay has pets.

I love playing soccer and want to continue playing here.
