Beschreibung

Hello! My name is Haley, I'm 37 years old, American, and I have been traveling full time for a year (and plan to keep going :)

I've had a wide range of studies, work experiences, hobbies and interests. I studied Foreign Languages and Literature in undergrad (studying in Senegal and Chile), worked as an au pair in Germany, a teacher in France, a commercial fishing deckhand for my dad, a baker for a farm to table restaurant. I got my Masters in Social Work, specializing in Global Social Work and did my capstone in South Africa. Since graduate school and the passing of my father I've been working at various nonprofits and living between Seattle, USA and my hometown on an island close to Canada.

At the beginning of 2024 I left my job as a major gift officer fundraiser for a national nonprofit working to protect farmland in the United States. And now I need a big pause and change. I did Helpx in my early 20's and it was a fabulous experience, so here I am pursuing Workaway. My hope/desire is to get back to my passion for foreign languages, experience places deeply, and participate in cultural and personal exchange.

Things I love to do personally: play guitar/ukulele and sing, read, cook, hike, swim, dance, embroidery, watch movies, listen to music, write, draw, row/be on boats. I equally love the city and the countryside and all of the activities of both.

Mehr Infos zu meinen Sprachinteressen
I love teaching English and discussing language/linguistics. I'm able to teach basic Spanish and French as well (French is my strongest language). I'm always looking to practice/improve my French and Spanish. I'm starting to learn Italian and loving it.

Was könntest du arbeiten?

I have had so many different jobs/experiences that I feel confident I can learn/do just about anything.
-I have worked in multicultural settings, taught English and studied multiple languages myself. I love teaching and helping others learn!
-I love working in kitchens/with food (I was the head baker of a farm to table restaurant when I was younger)
-I worked as an au pair when I was younger, taught English in France, and have volunteered with children off and on over the past decade.
-I have tons of experience with hospitality/customer service if you run a bed and breakfast or a hostel.
-I have gardening experience (though I'm not an expert). Last summer I grew over 20 pounds of raspberries in my backyard. I made lots of jam!
-I love animals.
-I have spent the past few years slowly improving my house, so I am somewhat familiar with home renovation projects.
-As a professional working remotely, I am comfortable with technology and administration. I currently work as a fundraiser for a national nonprofit and am comfortable with building relationships with a wide variety of people, organizing strategies, etc.

I listen to music from all over the world and am constantly discovering, sharing, creating playlists, etc.

I also practice Vipassana meditation (though I do not have a daily practice). I would love to sit or serve at a center in Europe!

  Spezielle Ernährung
  Due to an autoimmune disease, I don't eat gluten, eggs, soy, and most dairy. I mostly eat meat and vegetables, hard cheese, fruit, some grains (like rice, corn, quinoa) and nuts /seeds. This also means no to beer, but yes to wine and cocktails :)
