Kia ora koutou! I'll first introduce where I'm from - Aotearoa New Zealand - because this tells a lot about me (laidback, nature lover, tramper and coaster at heart). I am Lottie, early 20s, an Antarctic researcher with a love for volunteering and making a difference. First tried Workaway in Europe after a student exchange in the Netherlands, loved it, and am back again for more :)

Looking for a few places to spend summer 2025 - open to England, Wales, Scotland, Ireland, or European countries close to the UK. Get in touch! I am currently in the south of the UK and looking for places from 9 July 2025 onwards.
---
Hobbies include hiking with friends, hitting the beach, visiting nature reserves, half-marathons, and lots of other outdoor pursuits. I am looking to explore more places and lifestyles while volunteering (which also takes up some of my free time back home). I am definitely aiming to depart from the typical touristy experiences and try to create some more good in the world (personal development is a plus, too!). During my last travels in Europe I mainly enjoyed alpine and lakeside experiences - I’m keen to see so much more of this, as I'm sure I'll miss the beaches, mountains and native bush that have surrounded me in Aotearoa.

I am vegetarian. I hope to learn a lot of new things, including more vegan recipes :) Projects with a focus on positive climate impacts, citizen science/research/NGOs, wellbeing, working in or with nature, and generally improving the lives of others are my cup of tea. While I love nature, I also love exploring cities and can happily walk 30,000 steps in a day exploring the cultural/museum/art scene with my camera in hand.

To other Workawayers; please get in touch if you're looking for a travel buddy and see that we've got any future destinations in common - or if you'd rather suggest somewhere else, I'm keen for that too! If you just want to chat or have any book, music, hiking recommendations etc, my inbox is always open :)Interessengebiete

The dogs all enjoyed their walks and having lots of attention. I could see how much the dogs warmed to you (even if Jaffa barking tried to suggest otherwise now and then!) Your care and patience with each of the dogs really showed.

Katharine and Eric picked me up from a nearby coastal area, and we immediately went fossil hunting at a beach which was right up my alley. The rest of my stay and experience here was similarly great! Unfortunately I did get sick very early on, which they… read more

The working hours are quite strictly 9am-2pm and I felt so lucky to go on a kayak and run along the river, hang out with the animals and go on peaceful bike rides around the region in my spare time. I tried to give my best in… read more
Myself and another Workawayer arrived at a bad time so didn’t have an amazing first impression, and everyone was weighed down by a shared feeling of heaviness. All… read more
