Travelling
Description
Hello everyone! My name is Grace, I am 25 and a kiwi from New Zealand. I've been backpacking for 9 months now and I am looking to extend my travels for as long as possible!
I'm keen to gain new skills and learn about different cultures through volunteer work. I am no stranger to physical labor as I have a trade in engineering, I was working as a fabricator/ welder before I left NZ but fitting and machining are right up my alley as well. I also have past experience in reception work, child care and hospitality. I love the outdoors and being around nature, I'm a very confident, social and relaxed person. I come from a big family and love children and a family environment. Iam so excited to see what this year has in store for me!
