Hi, I am Mara from Germany. In my vacations I'm looking forward to open my horizon, especially learning new things and help wherever I can! Workaway is a chance to really get to know a country/mindset/culture and habits which I would love to do! Travelling and meeting other people is the best way to learn and to grow.
Workaway is learning for life and I can't wait to do it!Interests

More details about your skills
I already did a couple of workaways, because during vacation I do not just want to do some sightseeing, but really get to know the people in the country. Share moments together, get in touch, talk about things we're interested in.
I loved the workaways I could already experience, so when I arrive I'll already have an idea what "workaway" is about.
-I studyied "teaching" so I have an pedagogic background, worked with children and young adults and tryed out alternative teaching methods in a language summer camp.
-My gardening and farming skills were created during different workaway stays.
-Same with babystitting, which I did twice - once with 3 little girls and once with one handcaped baby
-I love cooking and baking - not so complicated things cause at one point I am not patient enough.
-I would say that I can adapt quiet easily new suroundings and circumstancesAge

Toul est une jolie petite ville au bord d'une rivière avec une grande cathédrale, il y a donc beaucoup à voir.

I stayed with Irena and Bernhard for about 2 weeks. I helped with preparing the rooms for guests and a little bit in the garden. The work wasn't hard - some days I did a bit more than on other days and I had 2 days off for discovering Nimes, Arles and Montpellier. They cared about me like a… read more
