Description
Hello hello! I am Ciara (27) and I am currently travelling South East Asia and aiming to explore Oceania from December onwards with current Christmas plans for Australia.

I am a really friendly, chatty person who’s is a fast learner and has a strong desire to learn new skills and explore new things. I have done previous work aways in France and Spain and am looking to engage in new projects and engage in knowledge exchange while on my travels. So far I have travelled to over 30 countries and engaged in a mix of house sitting, pet sitting, permaculture projects, working in Buddhist monasteries, community kitchens and hostel help. I would enjoy the opportunity to share what I have learned with you while making new friends along the way.

I have a background in science with a degree in Public Health and a Masters in Epidemiology. I have worked previously for a plethora of charities and community groups and have been working in a mid sized pharmaceutical company before I left for my travels.

I have a keen interest in botany and gardening having developed quite the green thumb over the last few years. In my spare time, I am an avid reader who loves to cook and play music in their spare time (harp and Irish flute) !

Looking forward to meeting you!

Stayed for a wonderful week here! After months of travelling, I was afforded a lovely Workaway experience here, which is situatied in a beautiful landscape located not far from Melbourne via train.

We spent one week at the center! The place is absolutely beautiful and it felt very special to experience living in the chateau, surrounded by nature. Stephanie was really engaging and helpful in organising the trip and our stay here. Just to note, we are both intermediate French speakers and sometimes struggled with the overall communication… read more

Where to begin! We stayed with Jane and Tony for three weeks in their beautiful home. It was our first Workaway and we quickly felt very welcome, comfortable and at home. We can't thank Jane and Tony enough for their amazing generosity, kindness and many many laughs! The work was exactly as described with simple gardening and household tasks. The… read more
