Description

UPDATE:
Until summer/autumn 2025 I prefer to stay as a digital nomad, as my art-training takes quite some time ;)


My name is Tanja, I am 56 and in my heart I am an artist!

But... First things first: Where I go, my dog goes :) My beautiful dog Luana is very well socialised and is friendly to humans, dogs, cats and even guinea pigs and even chicken. She barks only once or twice a month (!) She is afraid of fireworks and similar shooting sounds (she lived in a shelter for her first 3 years ), so, if there is a lot of firecracker noise and similar sounds around your area, that will not be suitable for us.

____________________________________________________________
IMPORTANT:
I am a nonsmoker and I can not stay in a smoky place or with smoking people.

I am vegan and I prefer to stay at a vegan place – at least vegetarian. But – as I come with my own van, I can cook for myself, when You cook only vegetarian ;) Maybe I can convince You to have a try on vegan meals with my well-known bean-pan and lentil-chilli :)

I will need a space for my Van (lenght 6,36m hight 2,70m), therefore I don’t need accomodation - the possibility to take a warm shower and use a washing-machine will be very much appreciated.
____________________________________________________________

My favourite thing to do is being creative with all kinds of materials and I am an upcycler ;)
My special skills are:
• drawings and illustrations (portraits and plants, nature, animals…)
• watercolour, pencil, acrylic paint
• knitting, crocheting, weaving
• upcycling of furniture, and many other household-stuff
• designing flyers, businesscards, posters, whatsoever :)
• photography, camera and drone
• plant-knowledge (healing herbs, amanita muscaria the fly agaric), etc.


I will also gladly help with gardenworks in an ecological garden without any chemicals and stuff like that. Please bare in mind, that I am only 1,46m tall (or better: small, I should say.. ) and due to that I am not your first-choice-helper for heavy work ;)


I can teach art and handcraft-stuff (see above) and I would be happy to teach You some german - don’t be scared of the german grammar :)) we will ship around that :)

For me it would be best to have a good balance between artwork and gardenwork, but to do just one of those will be fine for me too :)

I class myself a good and fast learner and I am always trying to optimize workflows. Due to my creative mind, I find solutions easily and often convert simple stuff (which often would go into the trash) into a more useful item.

Hopefully I will have enough space in my van to bring my handpan, which You are welcome to play. I am only a beginner, but surely I can show You the very basics ;)

Sometimes I love to sing – and I sing LOUD, just saying :)

If there are any questions left, just message me here :)

See my photos for some overview or visit my website: www.löwenschlösschen.de

If my skills are of interest for You, don't hesitate to invite me to your place, eventhough I have not planned a journey to your destination - maybe it happens to fit into my next journey :)

Warm greetings and maybe until soon :)
Tanja
