Description

Hi! I'm English, 24 years old and am planning some travels having just finished at university!

Before I started at university, I spent 10 months travelling solo around Australia and New Zealand and had several great experiences with Workaway and Couchsurfing hosts and found that it's truly my favourite way to travel - I see volunteering as an incredible way to make life-long friends, whilst helping families, independent organisations and businesses to thrive.

I love spending time outside, especially running, cycling, climbing, skiing, sailing and hiking! I'm also very passionate about healthy and sustainable living.

More details about your skills

I've had over 2 years hospitality experience, having worked as a waitress in a restaurant and at several events. I also worked at a hostel in Australia through Workaway for three weeks where my work included housekeeping and painting/decorating.

Cooking is also something I've been passionate about for many years, and I have lots of good vegan and vegetarian recipes up my sleeve!

I've also had a load of experience with children, through both babysitting and volunteering at a local youth group for disadvantaged children.

Ultimately, I'm a quick learner and a hard worker so am very keen to learn new skills! I'm especially keen to learn more about gardening and regenerative agriculture.
