Description

Hi Workaway community! I am 28 years old and have been travelling for the last 3 years since I graduated. I am hard-working and sociable, with a keen interest in people and culture– my dream is to work and live in a global society and connect with people across the world. I am a dedicated feminist and enjoyed studying Italian literature and gender theory at university. I believe in the power of education, I have worked in two universities in London and at a school in rural Thailand. The things that inspire and bring me peace and joy in life are beaches, fields, forests, sunshine, good books, animals, and meaningful conversations. I try to live a life that feeds both my body and my mind, and workaway seems a wonderful environment in which to do both.

I will be travelling in Australia for the next months! I would love to work with animals, be involved with community projects, and experience the local culture.

I have experience working/volunteering in the following roles/areas:
- permaculture woofing and regenerative agriculture farm hand (including working with chickens, buffalo, goats)
- hostel front desk, workshop coordinator, and cafe/bar staff
- copywriting, marketing, web design for universities and museums
- English teacher to children 5-12 years old
- distribution of food and basic resources for a homelessness charity
