  • Description

    Hello dear future Workaway Hosts :)

    We are Felix (32) & Claudia (30). Two joyful, openminded, respectful, clean and passionate travellers and experienced workawayers. Since 2015 (on and off) we backpacked through several countries (Canada, USA, Costa Rica, Panama, Ireland, Bulgaria, Italy, Switzerland, France, Spain, Austria and Portugal) and loved the spirit.

    In daily life in Germany Felix works as a zookeeper and Claudia in a doctors office as an accountant (and is a former hospitality management employee). We enjoy our jobs, but also love to travel and miss the workaway community from time to time.
    A new trip started at 01.08.2022 and we are so excited about it!
    This time we travel by car (converted it ourselves to a camper).

    UPDATE:
    From 01.08.2023 Felix travels with our camper through Eastern Europe and Claudia travels through Portugal with her little Hyundai i10 (no camper).

    We want to work and live with friendly and open minded hosts. We love meeting people and see new cultures and lifestyles. Currently Claudia would love to study Português as a new language and she looks forward to improve her language skills with you.
    We both are fluent in German and English.
    We love to be outside and see the nature with all its beauty.

    Through this workaway exchange we could already learn a lot about farming and gardening, as well as painting and constructions (wood work, mix concrete, roofing etc.).
    We also volunteered in a hostel in Costa Rica for 7 weeks and helped with the breakfast, cleaning, painting and with landscaping the big garden. If you need help in these areas we are prepared. Please read our references below.

    In our freetime we like to explore nature during hikes, read books and do yoga. We also like watching documentaries about health, travel sights and food. Bowling, dancing and have some game nights with friends also bring pleasure to our lives.
    Felix is very passionate into wild camping with professional gear and does it from time to time by himself or with friends.

    Thank you in advance! We are so excited to meet you!

    Best regards and have a beautiful day,

    Felix & Claudia

    It is very important for us to recycle things and buy clothes for example from a second hand store.

    Our mindset for food is:

    - buy it with thought
    - cook it with care
    - buy local foods
    - serve just enough
    - use what is left
    - DON'T WASTE IT
