Description
I’ve been travelling since September 2023 mostly in Asia and the Balkans and Central America. And Colombia in South America . I love travelling and meeting new people from all over the world. Having interesting conversations and swapping travellers tales. I am returning to Europe end of June and would love a volunteer position in order to meet people. I travel solo and have been to over 80 countries and love learning about other countries and cultures.
I will be travelling to India end of September.

More details about your skills
I’m very good with people and love meeting new people from all countries. I’ve travelled extensively so I’m very helpful to other people with lots of tales and tips. I worked at a resort hotel in Orikum preparing and serving breakfast with some bar work and cleaning. In Vlore I worked in a hostel checking people in and out with Booking com, serving beers and generally assisting and socialising with guests. In the UK I worked at an events venue meeting many people and helping them to have a good day and evening. I learn new jobs very quickly. I’m fit and enthusiastic and know I would fit in well working with other colleagues and assisting other travellers. I am a reliable person who would love the opportunity of a workaway position.

Enjoyed my time working at the hostel and learnt a lot from Josh the manager. I worked on reception booking guests in and out and did some bar work. Josh is an excellent manager and host. Always helpful to workaways, staff, guests. Nothing is too much trouble. And he has some great travellers tales!

Andrea worked with us and we couldn't be more pleased with her contribution. She was very communicative and quickly became an integral part of our team, filling our staff with her presence. We all felt like a family together.

Andrea was also very eager to explore Albania and immerse herself in the Albanian culture, which we appreciated… read more

Alban, Dardan and all the staff are fantastic. It is a beautiful place directly opposite the beach. The atmosphere is friendly and chilled. Everyone is welcoming. Breakfast is incredible and in 3 weeks I don’t think I had the same food twice. Lots of imagination goes into the food and I had some of the best meals ever here. Albanian food, fresh… read more
