Descrição
Hey :) I´m Emmily, 20 years old and originally from Luxemburg. After finishing high school, I decided that going to university right away was not for me. Having spent enough time sitting inside classrooms, I felt I would learn more from leaving my comfort zone and going out into the world.

I left Luxemburg in the middle of august 2022 and have been traveling and volunteering in different communities and farms ever since.
For the past 5 months, I have been helping with various tasks such as taking care of animals, construction, gardening, tree planting, up-cycling, cooking, and general maintenance.

Being in nature, connecting deeply with other people, and simply gaining as many new experiences as possible are some of the things that are very close to my heart right now. I also love doing yoga, cooking, reading, writing, going on hikes, and being around and working with animals. Besides, I would love to continue learning how to surf as I only recently took my first ever surfing lesson and I would really like to learn how to navigate a sailboat as well :)

I am especially interested in learning more about self-sufficiency, herbal medicine, and alternative lifestyles and I also want to acquire even more knowledge about permaculture/ gardening as one of my goals consists in living a low-impact lifestyle.

Thanks for reading my profile:) Looking forward to speaking with you, and if you would like to know more, please don’t hesitate to ask!

Deixado pelo Workawayer (Emmily) para o anfitrião (Backpacker berber vibes at ...)

Staying at Redouane’s place was definitely one of my favorite workaway experiences so far! He welcomes everyone with an open heart and makes sure everybody feels at home and has a great time. Redouane played amazing traditional Moroccon music, cooked super tasty food and showed us the village and the traditional berber lifestyle. We even visited a… read more

Deixado pelo anfitrião (Help our family with a forest ...) para o Workawayer (Emmily)

Short version : A very likeable young lady who knows how to be useful and who has just the right amount of initiative. Cheerful and chatty. Afraid of spiders but not afraid of hard work.

Long version : I was a bit doubtful about Emmily, because she's very young. (And I can remember how useless I would have been at the age of 20!) However, her… read more profile photo shows her with a lovely smile, so I decided that she would probably be a positive personality to have around and that this, alone, would make her visit worthwhile. I also (dare I say it?) felt that we had something positive and worthwhile to offer to this young traveller.

In the event, Emmily was a wonderful addition to our small family - and, indeed, to the whole village. (Everyone missed you when you left, Emmily!)

From the minute that Emmily walked into the room, smiling beautifully, she brought sunshine into our lives. Moreover, I was absolutely wrong about her ability to work. Whether alone or in company with one of the family, Emmily worked very well. Specifically, she is a champion weeder - very fast and thourough - but we also spent time mulching trees and planting trees. We even planted one tree - a pomegranate - especially for Emmily.

Our way of working is always somewhat haphazard, but Emmily's visit coincided with a particularly crazy phase when we were simultaneously weeding all the weeds that had shot up as soon as it rained, hastily planting new trees to take advantage of the rain, and frantically trying to get ready to go away for a few weeks. Emmily coped brilliantly with the pandemonium. She worked long and irregular hours and never once complained. (Not even that time we found ourselves planting seedling trees on a steep, gorse-covered hillside as the night and the rain both fell down upon us.)

Emmily has a healthy disdain for the concept of settling into The System - (of qualifications, career, mortgage, and the usual consumer-orientated existence) - and we were delighted to welcome her into the world of dropping out. :) We had some interesting and worthwhile conversations, exchanging knowledge and ideas on such things as mindfulness meditation, sailing, and Donald Trump through to the care and feeding of donkeys and how to make cappuccino.
It was good to have you around, Emmily.

Please note that I've only given Emmily four-out-of-five for skills because we didn't really test her skills. We didn't ask her to operate the strimmer or to build furniture, or whatever, and she didn't cook - so I don't want to mislead anybody into thinking that she's a master carpenter or a chef . HOWEVER, she gets five stars for her weeding and ten out of five for her ability to spread happiness and laughter.

I got to spend six weeks here as my first ever Workaway experience, and I am endlessly grateful for that opportunity.
They all welcomed me warm-heartedly when I arrived and made me feel like I was part of a big family right from the start. However, not only the people but also the place is extremely beautiful, with its abundant gardens surrounded… read more
