My next destination:
France - from Jun 2024 until Jun 2024 View allDescription
I’m Jess, a 29 year old Irish/Australian artist, ESL tutor and student nutritionist.
I started volunteering with Workaway in 2017 and had the most incredible experiences and met really wonderful, interesting people. I was volunteering around Europe pretty consistently until 2020 when the pandemic forced me back to Australia. I’m excited to get back into Workaway this year and have some more of those great experiences.
At my past workaways I painted murals, did tourism work, was a cook at a eco lodge, worked in permaculture, childcare, just to name a few.
I’m hoping to learn some new skills this year, particularly in natural building techniques and improving my Spanish. But I’m open to any and all opportunities. Mainly looking to make some connections with some lovely new people.Interests

What Joanna and Mario have built is amazing, especially when you learn of how fast they did it all. The work is fair, and Mario and Joanna do everything they can to make sure everyone is happy in what they're doing. Food, nature and good… read more
