Summary
I was born in Cologne Germany and lived there ever since. I grew up on a small farm where my parents and I grow our own vegetables and fruits. After I completed my A levels I decided to do a gap year in Australia. I am currently on a working holiday visa which is due to expire in September 2024.
I am able to start working immediately and am available from Monday to Sunday all week.
Since I own a car I am very flexible on shifts and can be called in at short notice.

horseback riding, hiking, gardening, surfing
I like being outside which is why I like going hiking or helping out my parents on the farm. I have always loved animals, so I started horseback riding when I was 7 years old and haven´t stopped ever since. Additionally, I started surfing just a couple of weeks ago when first coming to Australia.
