Our next destination:
Japan - from Jul 2025 until Aug 2025 View all
Description
We are planning to spend about a year abroad and thought that Workaway would be a good way to experience the cultures and places more thoroughly. We are both active people who enjoy running, hiking and other outdoor activities. What we would want from Workaway is to meet new people, try new things and learn about different cultures.

Jaakko
I'm working in IT-field at the moment and have participated in projects, customer onboarding etc. Before that I worked as a cashier for years, so I have lots of experience working with and meeting new people. I'm patient and calm and curious about new things. I have worked a bit in warehouses and factories, I have painted walls and done other manual tasks, so physical work isn't new to me either. I have always enjoyed the company of children and would like to get new experiences in working with children and helping them any way I can.
Anniina

I'm an athletic person who can do physical work and I enjoy being outside. I love helping people and spend time with children. I would like to do something that feels meaningful.
