Description

Hello there! My name is Jean and I am from the sunny island of Singapore. After 8 years of working in marketing at tech companies, I quit my job because I realised I wanted to live a little more instead of simply existing day by day. It has always been my dream to try living and working on a farm which is why I am heading to New Zealand in 2023 to make it a reality.

Being a vegetarian and advocate of empathy for all creatures, I am looking for farms or hosts that care for animals as fellow companions. As a person, I thrive on meeting new people and love to talk to folks from different walks of life. I am outgoing, social, open minded, keen on making a difference wherever I go and enthusiastic about learning new things. My hobbies include fitness, cooking, photography, writing and DIY projects/handicrafts, As a Workawayer, I hope to make life easier for my hosts and exchange stories, culture and skills so we can all walk away from the experience a better lived person.

While I am up for learning new skills and taking on whatever work you have for me, I am physically a very petite person so I am not equipped for any heavy lifting tasks such as furniture moving or construction. Aside from that, I am a quick learner and an enthusiastic helping hand! :-)
