Description

Hello guys!

I `m Silvia, 32 years old from Cologne, Germany. I have currently quitted my job as a doctor in hospital in order to take a break, support some volunteer projects in Greece and Kenia and to try workaway for the first time!

I love to explore different countries, cultures, landscapes and get to know people. In general I am a very curious person and love to learn things (theoretical and practical). After doing some backpacking trips to south america, asia and europe, I wanted to stay longer at places, give something back by working and maybe learn some new skills as well. Thats why I chose to try workaway :)

I did some wwoofing before in 2021 and 2022 on two farms in Germany. There I helped with taking care of the animals (mostly sheep and lamas) there, gardening, making cheese and small building stuff. This I really enjoyed!
