I'm a pharmacy technician and I have been working for the NHS in Scotland for over a decade. Working with other healthcare professionals taught me the importance of communication and teamwork.
During my Workaway experiences, I've gained hands-on skills in tasks such as sanding, staining, painting, basic carpentry, gardening and pruning olive and almond trees.
I find joy in hands-on tasks and various DIY projects.
With my father being a beekeeper, I have developed a comfort and familiarity with working alongside bees. There's nothing quite like the taste of fresh honey straight from the hive!
I love to cook and can create delicious plant-based dishes.
