Description
My name is Carmen, I'm married and have two sons. I have been working as a teacher for 38 years. That includes 25 years at a special school with children that have learning difficulties, for various reasons. I have studied Geography and Physical Education, but I also had to teach other courses. I am living with my husband in a small town in the eastern part of Germany, in the state of Saxony. My sons do not live with us anymore and have their own families.
I have traveled a lot of different countries like India, Fiji, Uganda, New Zealand and South Africa and have worked in private homes and children's homes.Centres d’intérêt

I could work as an au-pair and take care of children, ages 1-12 preferably. I also like gardening, helping around the house and cooking.
We have a big house and garden and so I´m used to work in different fields.Âge

I've had a sabbatical from 2009-2010 where I travelled to India, Nepal and Fiji, mostly to help in schools and children's homes making handicrafts with the children and teaching the teachers to do them with the children. Many of my pictures are from those travels.
From August 2017 until July 2018 I got another sabbatical, it means that I could travel and help in different countries and I didn`t have to work at my school in Germany.
Aug 2017 - Jan 2018: I worked as an au-pair for a young family with two children in Great Britain/England.
Jan 2018 - March 2018: I worked with "workaway" in New Zealand, at different places.
Apr 2018: I have been in Delhi, India, I worked in a school with underprivileged children.
May 2018: I have been in Uganda as a volunteer, I worked with children again, we also made handicrafts.
June 2018: I have been with "workaway" in South Africa, at different places.Informations complémentaires

thanks for your hospitality. It was very interesting to live and to help in your house and garden and to play with your wonderful grandchildren. To be a house-sitter was a new and magnificent experience. Thanks for your confidence.
Your place is never boring for people who can see the work.
Enjoy you time in NZ
