Hola!
I am Bronwen (but people call me Bronnie😊). I'm 22 and from the UK.
I have been traveling through Central and South America for the past year and taking different volenteering opportunities along the way. I am now going to South Korea to experience a new culture and meet new people.
I love the outdoors, hiking, animals, vegetarian cooking, swimming, reading, writting, snowboarding, music and I love to sing!
I have spent 2 winter ski seasons working as a chalet host in the beautiful French alps, so have hospitality experience (including preparing rooms, cleaning, deep cleaning kitchens, cooking for a variety of guests and being a first point of contact and source of information for my guests) and l love meet new people!
When in the UK I have worked in a daycare for periods over the last 5 years, caring for babies and young children from 5 months to 5 years (and have the DBS checks required in England to work with children). I have also done lots of different jobs (Including working as a private cook, private nanny, working in a coffee shop, as a Christmas elf and I am also a 1 to 1 singing teacher).
Before doing ski seasons, I spent a year training in musical theatre and have since always enjoyed singing and dancing!
So far on my workaway adventures I have volunteered with a lovely family of 5 in France helping with the children, in a hostel in Nicaragua, a Spanish school in Colombia and a surf hostel in Ecuador, and a farm in Uruguay but I am keen to gain new experiences and learn new skills!
I am a positive hard worker and can't wait to see some new places and people!

What started as a three-week stay extended into two months of real kinship!
Bronwen found her place immediately and fitted perfectly in our family. She behaved like a big sister to our kids, who grew to love her fast despite the barrier of language. A barrier that Bronwen managed to overcome quickly… read more
