Canada - du Aoû 2025 au Sep 2025 Voir toutDescription
Hi, I'm Caroline from Germany and I'm planning a trip to Canada from August to the beginning of September. And I really like the workaway experience of becoming a temporary part of a family or local community and learning new skills.
Back in 2014 I did my first workaway trip in British Columbia and had an amazing time there. In 2022 I returned to visit all my previous hosts, which was of course fun. This summer I can take a long vacation again and would like to explore a bit more of the Eastern part of Canada this time (I've only spent a couple of days in Montreal so far).
Back home, I work in fisheries management (actually inspired by one of my workaway places), which is interesting but mostly office-based. So in my free time, I love to get out of doors or do something practical. The workaway tasks which I enjoyed most included building, gardening, planting etc.
I really like working alongside someone but of course I can also do jobs independently. I think I'm a responsible, hands on person and easy to get along with. I'm looking forward to get to know you and to help with your project!Centres d’intérêt

Quelles sont vos compétences ?
My previous workaways were mostly farmstays where I did a variety of things including gardening, animal care, painting. My highlight was probably when we built a little house to sell the farm's flowers in.
At home, I helped some friends renovate an old house so I learned a little bit more about constructing even though what we could do ourselves was mostly to tear down the old structures... :) I'm also volunteering at a search and rescue group where the training includes all kinds of tools and machinery. I also enjoy gardening at my parents' place and am trying to grow some veggies there, with mixed results...
So I would say my experience in the fields I'm interested in is only superficial. But I am always keen to learn more and improve my skills!!Âge

A few years ago I started to eat vegetarian/mostly vegan. But I try to be very flexible about this when around other people...
