Descrição
Hello there,
my name is Marit and I'm an animal and nature lover from Germany living in Portugal.
After finishing my studies in Sociology, I worked at an IT Company, focusing on illegal animal trade in the internet for three years. Then I felt the urge to work with animals in a more practical way and started my wonderful Workaway journey.
I love to find places where I can care for animals, be in the nature, experience different ways of living and get to know different perspectives, new people and animals. :)
I'm looking forward to meeting you!

The rescue centre is such a special place for both, animals and human beings. I’m very thankful that I had the opportunity to meet so many sweet dogs and cats but also really kind people. The animals are extremely well cared for, are treated as individuals and the staff/volunteers make sure to give them their best possible life while waiting for… read more

I had a great and memorable time at the farm. It was super interesting to gain more knowledge about the flora and fauna in Panama and it felt very lucky to meet so many different kinds of animals. I especially appreciated the effort of the family to make sure that I could meet one of my favourite animals – the opossum. :)

Having Marit in our "family" was really an exceptional time. This amazing young wonder woman saved us in quite a difficult time. We are so very grateful that she chose to spend time with us and helping us and our neighbors in so various ways ❤️❤️❤️ I think there is not a single thing Marit can't do, all she did was very well done and a little… read more

Looking back to my time at Hallas home, I am nothing but thankful and full of great memories. Right from the beginning, Halla made me feel like being part of the family which I really appreciate. She is such an inspiring, kind and generous woman and the best bread maker! Her daughter is so funny and smart, probably the coolest kid in whole… read more

It is hard to put into words how thankful I am for the experience at Bjarnis home. Bjarni is such a kind, generous and easy-going person. It is so much fun to be around him and he has the best stories to tell. The work (mainly registering books) was easy but interesting and a good way to be introduced to the Icelandic language and literature. We… read more

I am missing words to describe how wonderful Marit and her sister were. They were so kind, happy, good friends, hard workers, really good at everything they had to help us with.
We all miss you both so much and really hope we will meet again sometime.
