Hi! Thanks for checking out my profile.
I am currently on an extended trip around South East Asia where during my travels I hope to meet and make meaningful friendships with locals to better understand the countries, the cultures, and the language(s) of where I travel to.
Whilst I am new to the Workaway website I am not new to this form of cultural exchange in return for volunteer time. Whilst studying at university, I spent a year in Paris working as an au pair for a French family. Most recently, I have volunteered in Thailand at an elephant sanctuary as I care about animal conservation and moving to more ethical modes of animal care.
I've always been interested in learning more about farming, especially organic farming practices, if possible. Whilst I am vegetarian, this is an entirely personal choice that makes me feel more connected to my roots and cultural background, but I have no problem staying with those who do eat meat. I just hope my dietary preferences don't come across as picky or fussy. I'm always happy when in the kitchen and learning new recipes!Centres d’intérêt

My professional career background is in IT consulting so I'm experienced in digital project management.
Outside of that however, I enjoy looking after children - I spent a year during my university studies as an au pair/nanny to two boys under the age of 5, engaging them in educational play and practising English with them to support their language instruction and was a regular (weekly) babysitter for another family with two girls.
I'm a real animal lover. In December 2023, I spent time volunteering at an ethical hands off elephant sanctuary in Thailand. Back home, I have a German Shepherd dog and so I'm a ceritified dog person, so if there's anything to be to done with pets - feeding, walking, playing I would most definitely be up for that.
Wherever I can I'd like to chip in a help, if it's not already in my skill set then I am happy to learn and try!Âge
