Descrição
Hello there!

I’m a 27-year-old enthusiastic Finnish woman. I'm seen as a positive, energetic and vibrant person. I have grown up on a countryside, basically in the middle of nowhere, so since my childhood I have got used to working and not being afraid to get my hands dirty - the opposite. I prefer to keep myself busy and on the go. On the contrary, I'm also a calm and caring person and know when and how to be still. There are so many things to enjoy and learn every day and I don't want to miss these small opportunities. I work in a tourism industry and I like my job at the moment a lot. I still have great opportunities to travel and explore the world. Meeting new people and sharing our cultures and just aspects of life is always intriguing.

I'm into sports and nature, and the combination of these two. I love adventures and trying new things, as I'm quite active in this point of view. Though I also enjoy reading books, making handicrafts, knitting, cooking and baking. I have also been studying quite a few languages and wouldn't mind to practice them in real-life situations. I come along very well with people with different ages and background. I also enjoy playing with kids and being creative with them, at the same teaching if I see there is a chance to that. I have two nieces of the age six and four although it feels like they were just born 😃

I had my first Workaway experiences in 2019 when I traveled to Australia and New Zealand. I had great hosts and wonderful moments and I would love to go through the same energy again. Those memories will last for life. Besides that adventure, I have been traveling a lot, both solo and with a friend. Last summer I spent three weeks traveling around Italy and Spain, taking advantage of Couchsurfing. What have I realized is that I'm not a regular tourist type. I want to experience the cultures in a deeper level and get to know with locals. Thank you for reading, I'm more than pleased to chat more and answer the questions. Have a lovely day! 😊

Quais são suas habilidades?
As my background lays on the countryside, I have got used to various tasks at a farm. From taking care of animals, painting, repairing, mowing the lawn, gardening to cooking and cleaning. I'm quite a handy person I could say. Just maybe need some instructions and tools, and I'm on my way. With my flexibility and open-mind I can easily adapt to different situations.

I have also played a guitar and piano in my youth and still do occasionally, but the most I have forgotten. I do know I'm not a singer and not very artsy person, so drawing nor painting cool detailed images is not my thing, I can admit.

Deixado pelo anfitrião (Life in nature between ...) para o Workawayer (Sonja)

Sonja was our first workaway experience. We are very happy to have met her. She helped me a lot to improve my English and was very patient. She was always interested in us and our lives and very independent. She was a great addition to our family and we would be very happy if she came back one day. We will definitely visit Finland in the future.

First of all, I'm so grateful for the experience I got to spend with this amazing family. I couldn't have wished more for my time in Germany. I really enjoyed being on the countryside and although there aren't many places to go nearby, I found myself discovering many areas with a bike. The cities are also easily reached and I was offered so much… read more

Sonja stayed with us for 2 weeks in late June 2019. She was our first Nordic workawayer and it was a fascinating cultural exchange for us learning all about her home country of Finland, trying various dishes of Finnish cuisine, watching a choice selection of Finnish liquorice YouTube videos, barn dairies and robotic cow milking machines, the… read more

Where could I begin, this was such a wonderful experience to be hosted by Jacq. There is a lot to do on the property so the work is variable and fun, at least I enjoyed. Jacq was fair with the hours and helped a lot with how I could make the most of the island. Her knowledge about the nature, birds, animals and plants among all is exceptional. I'm… read more

My experience at the farm was overall amazing. Although I did some hard work, it was just a few hours per day. Nerida made sure I definitely got enough rest and food. All she cooked and baked tasted delicious and I had plenty to eat. The alpacas are such interesting and beautiful animals, it was fantastic to see them closely. The farm is very calm… read more

Sonja was an absolute delight to have at my home and farm. Nothing was too much trouble for her and given one of the main tasks was chipping out serrated tussock in my creek paddock and really not much fun for either of us she was very hard working. I would have her back here at any time. Nothing worried her even when I had to get the vet out to… read more

I don't have anything negative to say about this host. The family made me feel like a part of it and I could feel myself home. It didn't feel like work at all, just some basic household tasks. I loved spending time with the kids and cooking meals and treats. The time flew fast as I had such a great time and each day was different. I had many… read more

Sonja stayed with our family for 3 weeks. She was a pleasure to host, and quickly fitting into the family and built great relationships with the kids. She is a hard worker and any task that was set was done to a high standard. I appreciated Sonja's ability to see what needed to get done and do things like the washing without being asked. Sonja is… read more

I spent a great week at Robin's. The farm has a lot of work to do and I got to help in various odd jobs maintaining the farm. Although there was a bit difficulties prioritizing the tasks, we managed to finish some of the work. No clear plan nor daily tasks, so nothing was precisely planned beforehand. I also had plenty of freetime to explore the… read more

Although Sonja was just here a week she made herself very comfortable and we got along well. Despite her quiet nature we had some solid conversations, and shared very pleasant silence. She helped me achieve some jobs that I probably wouldn't have finished which was great. We did some creative gardening together and those garden beds will remind me… read more

Sonja was a delight to host. She is easy-going and willing to tackle any job from mowing to cleaning the fridge. She also has initiative & helped out where necessary without being asked. Sonja has a great sense of humour & a friendly nature. We wish her well as she continues on her adventure. Kiitos.

The week as well as my first workaway experience passed by very fast - because I had so much fun and great time with this host. I couldn't have wished more. The host was very helpful and kind, about the tasks to be done and to explore the area. The location is perfect for exploring the Blue Mountains and there are many bushwalking tracks nearby.… read more
