Description

I am a 24-year-old kiwi female living in the United Kingdom.

Simple pleasures bring me happiness; sunsets, cooking, conversation, yoga, bike-rides, hiking and camping.

Having worked in the non-profit sector in Aotearoa for 3 years, mainly contributing to health initiatives, I am deeply connected to community values and wholeheartedly believe in reciprocity.

I thoroughly enjoyed my first workaway in Switzerland in 2023 with my best friend and am looking for another beautiful experience such as that one.

Skills that I bring as a Workawayer are:
- babysitting
- animal sitting
- housekeeping
- cooking
- basic gardening

I recently begun to learn how to sew and would welcome any opportunity to learn from someone with more experience.

I look forward to connecting with you!

Alex has lived with us for eight months and has been a total delight. She has been wonderful with our boys who totally love her - and also a genuinely kind, thoughtful, diligent member of the household. She is a great cook and always goes out of her way to help, has been conscientious and just a genuinely lovely human. We will miss her!

I have been staying with Essie and Ed, and their two sweet boys, Arthur and Albie since September 2025. Essie and Ed have both been supportive and welcoming from day one, which made settling into London and a live-in position comfortable. The boys are full of life and are a pleasure to be around. We spent a lot of time playing at the park, reading … read more

Yvonne and Franz were AMAZING hosts for our first ever Workaway! They made us feel so comfortable in their home from the minute we arrived. Their communication before our arrival and during our stay was A+. We had many laughs together, learnt a lot about the Swiss lifestyle, and got to share our own culture with them. We were well looked after by … read more

These two kiwi's are absolutely awesome. We had a great two weeks with Alex & Tamara. They were very humorous and completed the tasks to my complete satisfaction. I hope you also had a great time with us and we wish you all the best. --> Maori for family tree :D - we still remember :)
