Descrição
My name is Ida, I am 23 years old and I completed my bachelor's degree in Political Science & International Law in 2025. Last September, I've started my masters program Conflict Studies and Human Rights in Utrecht (NL). I was born in Germany and speak German, English, and French fluently. For the past two years, I have been learning Dutch, Russian and Arabic (now I earned practical knowledge in Darija). I am a youth leader in a youth organisation (scouting, WFIS), I love spending time in nature, and grew up around animals. I have various work experiences in part-time jobs, such as in gastronomy, grants management, cooking, babysitting, retail, and as a nursing assistant in a retirement home for the elderly.

Mais detalhes sobre meu interesse em idiomas
I can teach German, English and French. I earned knowledge in teaching in a language school in Morocco. In the past, I was a private tutor as well. I am highly interested in learning Arabic dialects, Dutch, improve my Business French and get to know the language of different communities. In my German university, I've learned writing and reading Standard Arabic and Cyrillic. In Morocco I started diving into Darija. I can teach the Arabic alphabet and cyrillic writing!

Quais são suas habilidades?
Besides languages, I grew up in the countryside and developped strong practical skills and gained experience in areas such as gardening, cooking, woodworking, and general household tasks. However, I have limited experience with electrical work (e.g. wiring, lighting, and appliances).

I grew up with animals such as dogs, cats, horses and chicken.

For over 10 years, I have been a group leader in a Scout organisation, and for the past 6 years, I have also served as a board member with a focus on finances and grants management. These roles have helped me develop excellent organisational skills, which I have also applied when working at weddings, markets, and large events.

In my free time, I am passionate about cooking and baking. I prepare meals weekly and enjoy taking the time to create more elaborate dishes and baked goods on weekends.

I would describe myself as a reliable, honest, and dedicated person who is eager to gain new experiences and take on hands-on tasks.

I spent six months with Anke, Geert, and their three kids, and I felt like I was living in a supportive shared household. My main tasks were cooking, groceries, cleaning and supporting them with babysitting. Cleaning includes the kitchen area after cooking or meal-prepping, vacuum clean the floor in the living room and kitchen, clean the table… read more after dinner, load/empty the dishwasher etc. When it came to cooking, I prepared meals from Monday to Friday, either from scratch or cooking for two days at a time — depending on my weekly schedule. They were flexible and trusted me to manage this entirely on my own. Whenever my university schedule allowed me to be home between 5 and 6pm, we all ate dinner together, which I always looked forward to. We usually coordinated our Friday and weekend plans together in a relaxed and open way. On weekends, I played with the kids so that Anke could enjoy her weekly padel games and Geert his occasional tennis matches — something I was always happy to do, because over time I developed a truly loving bond with the two boys through talking, playing, and reading in Dutch together. They played the biggest part of why I was able to pick up Dutch so quickly during my time there!

One of my tasks was also to spend one early morning per week with the kids: waking up with them, making and having breakfast (porridge) together, feeding the baby, dressing them, and preparing the lunch box for school.

Getting to university in Utrecht was straightforward, though it is worth being aware that the commute takes some planning. You have two route options: either cycling 20 minutes to the nearest town and taking the train and walk to university, or taking the bus directly from Woudenberg to the university campus, which runs five times a day. Since most of my seminars were in the city centre, I primarily traveled by bike and train and then walked - in total around 1 hour from door to door. For me personally, this meant that cooking sometimes shifted to the evenings or mornings rather than the afternoon. That said, if your university schedule is packed or strict, good time management is key — the commute is very manageable, but it does require you to plan ahead and be organised. For groceries, the supermarket is just a two-minute bike ride or five-minute walk away, and I went roughly four times a week. Here too, Anke and Geert were flexible — they encouraged me to find my own rhythm and manage my time in whatever way worked best for me. By the way, the town and the surrounding area is very nice for long walks and bike rides!

There is one thing to keep in mind: this is a lively household with three children under the age of five, so mornings and weekends can be noisy and busy. That said, the evenings are wonderfully peaceful and calm. I found an interim-home with people I would gladly return to anytime.

I spent 10 weeks in Berrechid, and for me, the experience became more valuable and intensive with each passing day. The cultural and language exchange was exactly what I wanted and what I chose Morocco for. It’s perfect for anyone looking to improve their English, French, and Darija or even Italian! I was able to improve my Darija with the… read more
