Descrição
I am 22 years old and from Germany. I study English and German to become a Primary/ Elementary school teacher. I need (and want) to go abroad for 3 month this summer to improve my English skills and of course to get to know new people and cultures. I already have been on an exchange in the USA for 2,5 weeks and I loved it. Now I want to learn a little bit more about the country and spend more time there.
My hobbies are Irish Dance and I love listening to music. I started playing the guitar again and I am crazy about animals which is why I decided I want to work on a ranch in my time abroad. It would be a welcome change from all the studying I have to do right now.
I also am good with children and am happy to help with homework or keep them busy.
I am a motivated person and I do not fear physical work.

Quais são suas habilidades?
Due to my studies and diverse internships in primary schools and also thanks to my two little brothers I am good with children. I have experience in helping with homework and I also had a babysitting job for several years since I was 15. Since I started studying in 2021 I lived in a shared apartment with two roommates but I already learned to help with work in the house and in the garden at home really early, too, which made it easy for me to live on my own.
I do not have much experience with farm animals. I did horseback riding from age 5 to13. So I do have some experiences with horses and I always had contact with horses. But my riding experiences might need a little refresh which I would be really happy about.
I am generally very open to many tasks for me to do although I would be happy to help take care of the animals, too.

Algo mais...
I love to meet new people and make new freinds (lifelong friends welcome). I am always ready for a good laugh and I like to think that spontaneous ideas are the best.
I am really looking forward to a summer full of fresh air, a lot of movement and physical work and work with children and animals. And it would be a really nice addition to do a little horseback riding again because I really miss it.

  I usually eat vegetarian but I am not that strict about that and I do not care if people around me eat meat.

Manfred is, without question, the best host I could have wished for. It was my first time away from home. He patiently answered all my questions in advance and I felt incredibly welcomed and supported from the moment I arrived.
He taught me so much about kangaroos and took every opportunity to teach us about Australian wildlife in general. He… read more truly cared for his volunteers, making an effort to give us a truly unique experience, taking us on rescues and to the vet to witness the treatment of a sick animal.
The work can certainly be demanding when there are many animals in care at the moment, requiring extensive cleaning and specialized treatments for sick animals. However, most of the cleaning is efficiently managed in the mornings. The rest of the day is mainly dedicated to feedings, which are always a highlight and a lot of fun. The kangaroos are the best. They are so special with such different personalities! Living so close to them is a very special and wonderful experience. Many of the released kangaroos even come back in the evening to get some food. It is truly magical!
Also we consistently enjoyed the shared evening meals. Manfred is a talented cook who goes out of his way to accommodate everyone’s preferences, often preparing excellent vegan dishes. Dinner preparation is a social event; he frequently offers a glass of wine, and we spend the time chatting and bonding. Volunteers are also encouraged to prepare their favorite recipes, adding a wonderful cultural exchange element.
We usually conclude our evenings with relaxed, communicative get-togethers such as watching TV or Series together or simply watching the kangaroos snuggeling in their pouches. Even after a hard day's work, Manfred often took the time to take us outside to look at the stars and search for nocturnal Australian wildlife, such as possums.
I ended up spending over three months at the shelter and absolutely loved it. The community is incredible, including both Workawayers and dedicated local volunteers who assist weekly. It is a true testament to Manfred’s hospitality that many Workawayers who left to travel Australia have returned for a second stay. Some even canceled travel plans to extend their time. I, too, stayed far longer than initially planned and even returned for an extra week before heading back to university. I am already making plans for a third visit in March. Manfred has not just built a shelter; he has created a beautiful community that became my second home and second family. I miss them all a lot.

Aline was the first long-term volunteer I agreed to host. She initially planned to stay for 3 months, but she stayed longer and then returned for another visit before heading back to Germany. I wish she could have stayed forever. Her love for my animals was inspiring. I truly can’t think of one fault. Nothing was too difficult for Aline. She was… read more
