Malaysia - from May 2024 until Jun 2024 View allDescription
Hi there,
I'm Sakina, a 28 year old adventurous French woman, travelling through Southeast Asia. I love to explore the world and discover about new cultures.
I have a master in environmental sciences and lived in New Zealand for a year and a half.
I want to use my hands for useful and innovative purposes as I'm exploring Southeast Asia, and be fully part of the local way of life. That way, I don't aim to be a "tourist" but a "traveler", and I believe that the most authentic way of travelling is by meeting local people ("Those who travel without meeting the other do not travel, they move." Alexandra David Neel).
I am a quick learner, responsible and adaptive. I also am an animal lover (grew up with chickens, ducks, goats and cats) and was involved in many projects regarding animal well-being. I have many experiences of Workaway involving animals, and did my share of house-sitting and farm maintenance.
I am a vegetarian, like cooking pizzas and love any meal involving potatoes and cheese. I also like baking cookies, cakes and make chocolate mousse. I love hiking, fitness and yoga. Kind of an introvert, so sometimes I just prefer to do things by myself (such as travelling around the world), but I try to get myself out of my comfort zone, and like to team up with motivated people. I try to stay open-minded, I'm curious, and interested in subjects regarding environmental issues.
Goal in life : find a way to develop teleportation.
I am eager to meet you, to be helpful and to share your way of life :)
See you soon !Interests
