    Travelling

  • Description

    I’m looking to be apart of meaningful projects where I can learn new skills/ languages. I would love to be able to contribute to different missions to be part of the journey and watch it grow. I’d say my motivation is largely to do with meeting new and interesting people to expand my mind with different points of views and cultures. I’m looking to join workaways that offer something I’m already passionate about as well as some new challenges for me to tackle.

    I have been living in Canada for the past 2.5 years and it was my passion for snowboarding that drove me here. I’m always looking for new experiences that might end up moulding my path and future.

  • More details about your skills

    I first moved abroad at 16 to Belgium to follow my passion for horses. I then continued to work in top competition yards for the next 6 years. I have extensive knowledge for horse care and training. I used to be in charge of the day to day running of competition yards so am fully competent to giving the best care to horses. I was also given the responsibility to do all ground work and breaking in of youngsters as well riding and training our top horses.

    With my experience of working on different yards and growing up in the country I also became competent with basic DIY tasks such and fixing fencing/ building shelters etc.

    I am a competent driver with a full Canadian and UK license as well as having my lorry license enabling me to drive up to 18 tonnes in the UK.

    In recent years I have been working as a snowboard instructor which has taught me the value of patients as well as giving me the opportunity to work with children. I have adored this role and has made me confident in my ability to take care of kids wether that be playing or learning.

  • What else ...

    I love to playing cards games and will always be carrying cards, I’m down to learn new games or teach others the ones I know.

    I’m always looking to learn a new craft, most recently I have started crocheting. I also really enjoy contributing to art projects.

    I love cooking and a diverse range of foods, so whenever I can learn a new recipe or technique I’m there!
