Descrição
Hello there!
My name is Shirin and I’m currently studying English literature in Birmingham UK. Since the semester at my home university in Germany starts in April im looking to travel a little bit between Dec/Jan- March/April. I have done au pair work in the past and it brought me so much joy and meaningful connections in my life that I want to start a similar journey where I work in a different country. I feel like right now is the perfect time to do it!
I would say I am a pretty easy person to get along with plus I love animals a lot! Im also into reading and exploring wherever I’m at to find a nice spot for doing so :)

Mais detalhes sobre meu interesse em idiomas
I have a big interest in languages since I'm studying English at university and its not my mother tongue. Moreover I would love to learn Spanish (I have a very small vocabulary but I am nowhere near speaking it with other people)

Quais são suas habilidades?
I have worked with children before, from an internship at a daycare to two years of being a nanny (Aupair). Back in Germany I am a barista and had several other jobs in the food and service industry. I also had an internship at an Institution where I did a lot for their social media and press work! That’s also where I discovered my love for writing. I love embroidery and just in general crafts. Plus I used to volunteer at my local animal shelter where I worked at the dog department.

Deixado pelo Workawayer (Shirin) para o anfitrião (Help around our house and ...)

I finally had some time to think back on my amazing adventure in Málaga with Karen and Juan. The first time I entered their home, I felt at home, and that feeling dominated my whole stay in Málaga. I was there for about three months, from mid-January to mid-April, and I would have stayed longer if I hadn't had to return to Germany to finish my… read more studies.
Monday through Friday was my normal work schedule, which included cooking, grocery shopping, taking Sandy for a morning walk, and other light household chores. Additionally, if I wanted to buy groceries for myself but the family didn't necessarily need them, I was always more than welcome to do so. Karen and Juan are quite flexible regarding the work that needs to be done during the week, even though there is a schedule! (This applies to household things etc. Logically, childcare hours cannot be adjusted as easily). They agreed to reschedule the times whenever I needed time off, whether it was for an appointment, Semana Santa, or friends visiting me. This allowed me to have plenty of time for my other interests, which was really pleasant and much appreciated. I also had time for exploring other interests, such as attending a Spanish class twice a week. In addition, they offered to help me with anything and answered whatever questions I had. Nearing the end of my stay they even took me to the botanical garden of Málaga since it was on my bucket list and I wanted to see it before I went home. That and other small things just made me feel appreciated and I’m happy to have a place in Málaga I can come back to and feel welcomed :)
You should love animals since besides their dog Sandy they also have a lovely cat named Nugget which I adored! Sandy and Nugget are both really cute and I loved having them around. Especially when they would hang out in my room with me!
My job also required me to watch Luca occasionally. He's one of the funniest two-year-olds I've ever met, and I'm not even kidding. He's also really intelligent, and I had fun hanging out with him. Many times, it didn’t even feel like „working“ but just like hanging out with my tiny friend. Luca is an amazing, kind, smart, and hilarious child who won my heart quickly. We either played inside or we went to playgrounds, the park or the beach!
It's also important to note that, while working Monday through Friday, I was able to take the weekends off and still had plenty of time to travel. Almost everything on my travel bucket list was possible for me to do.

I will forever carry this experience in my heart and I’m so happy I did it and everything worked out :) Just in general they are very nice, caring, loving, and funny people to be around. I haven't seen them in roughly two weeks, but I must admit that I already miss them.
Till we see each other again I wish them ALL the best in their life <3

On the one hand Shirin always helped when we needed. On the other hand Leire got along very well with her. So of course we are happy that Shirin stayed with us for some weeks! We are sorry for the stomach virus that ruined one of the 2 weekends she stayed with us =( and we hope that Shirin finally starts speaking the Spanish that she has been… read more

I stayed with Lara and Igor for roughly 3 weeks in their house on the countryside. They were very welcoming and we spent some fun hours including playing board games which I really enjoyed :) They gave me a valuable insight into Spanish culture and introduced me to some fruits I had never heard of. This is the ideal location for you if you want to… read more
