Hello ,
I am a 44 year old woman from the US currently living and working in Dublin, Ireland.
I am planning on visiting mainland Europe from March 17th through March 31st and would love the opportunity to stay and volunteer. I am looking for experiences and opportunities that will enrich my life.
I have varied skills that I picked up from an 18 month trip I did in 2016 volunteering on farms in Canada and teaching English in Peru. I also spent most of 2021 and 2022 volunteering at a homestay in Germany, learning German while living in Berlin, and house/ dog sitting in England.
I know a bit of gardening, I can cook, I can clean, I can mend and repair as needed, take care of farm animals, and basically offer a helping hand when and where needed.
I am willing to offer 4 to 5 hours of work a day for 6 days a week. I am willing to do whatever is needed to keep your place running and can learn new skills pretty fast with guidance.
I do not smoke or do drugs. I am mostly vegetarian.
I bring hard work, dedication, and a hunger for learning with me. I am generally a shy person but an avid listener and a keen observer. I take directions extremely well and can be left alone to complete a task with little supervision once I learn the ropes. I am a very clean person and highly organized, because I have an immense respect for my environment and take care of things around me. I try to keep my space in order and tidy and will do the same for your property.Interests

My previous hosts from my 2016 and 2017 volunteer travels made sure I left with a little bit of knowledge of everything :) but being a learner by nature I pick up things relatively easy.
I cook frequently so I am pretty handy in the kitchen. Besides from being able to cook, I have other newbie skills that I have picked up along the way. Some gardening, processing food, harvesting, firewood chopping, weeding, pruning shrubs and bushes, stable mucking, house work, cleaning, etc.
I love animals and have house sat and looked after animals for 2 of the families I WWOOFed for.Age

I had done wwoofing before but this was my first workaway experience. It was truly amazing.
My work comprised of mostly cleaning, some gardening, lots of cooking, and sometimes spending time with the 4 foster girls. Nothing too hard or strenuous.
