Description

Hello future workaway's! Here is a little about me;
Being from a small nature-filled hippie village in Far North Queensland, Australia, I have a big love of of nature and landscapes - whether that be a rain forest, ocean, desert, or cold tundra (okay the latter might be a bit of a stretch).

Aside from nature, my other big passion is language learning and teaching, I have worked as an English teacher and plan to continue my studies to get an official accreditation. I value human connection and love a good conversation.

I strive to be a respectful, helpful, and accountable person for any host I work for as these qualities are my baseline ethics (or codes) to being a human on this planet.

I have experience working on an organic farm taking care of chickens, planting, mulching, garden maintenance, harvesting, preparing for market, and finally selling in a market stall. This has taught me how to maintain a strict schedule and the importance of reliability.
I also have done quiet a few odd jobs in the realm of manual labor such as hours of land clearing and a bit of mowing.

I have a lot to learn about everything and anything and I am excited to pave my way. Life is exciting and beautiful, and I intend to make the most of it.

If you have any further queston or require references from work outside of the Workaway site please feel free to reach out.
