Description

Hi :)
we´re a family of four: me, Johanna, my husband Julian and our two kids Benjamin (3) and Amlie (1).

I’m a primary school teacher in Germany and also giving horse riding lessons as I’m very much into that sport! I´ve got lots of horse riding experience and a licence for teaching how to ride. I also do skydiving, mountain biking, rock climbing and snowboarding whenever I get the chance :) so I´m very active and got lots of energy.
I spent 14 months traveling the world in 2017/18 and worked almost the whole time via workaway. I´ve had some very good experiences with workaway and would love to find out how it might work to travel and work as a family.
I'm pretty independent, used to work hard and love doing it outside - even if it´s 45 degrees out and I get dirty! I don’t mind trying and learning new things every day, getting to use many different machines and being helpful wherever I can. I did lots of farmwork with all kinds of animals, but also took care of kids being a nanny for 6 months.
If I could combine our workaway stay with using my horse riding experiences or taking care of kids that would be amazing!

My husband Julian is an IT-Project Manager and has personnel responsibility. He´s working from home almost full time, which might also make it possible to travel during his work time, but primarily we would like to travel and work when he´s off work.
He´s a reliable, conscientious and very friendly person, who get´s along with almost everyone. He likes sports as much as I do - we´re a very active family - and likes to be outside as well. During the six months he spent in Australia he worked as a landscaper, demolished old buildings and helped with the redesign. He doesn´t mind hard work, heat or dirt. Also he´s quite knowledgeable in relation to any work with the computer or internet. And of course he´s a loving Dad, is good with kids and can cook a little :)

Our two children are lovely, normally well behaving and don´t have any special needs or diets. They´re used to be outside a lot, don´t watch TV or Smartphone and basically don´t get any sweets - yet :D

So. that´s us :)

We´re very much looking forward to meeting some nice people, that are willing to host a whole family in exchange for two peoples work in shifts, as one of us still has to look after the kids. But I think that should be possible even with a few arrangements (like for example pay for food or something like that).
We´d be very happy to hear from you and would love to learn more about your country and way of life!
