Description

Hi! My name is Dasha, I’m from Ukraine.

I would describe myself as an open-minded, calm and curious person. I enjoy discovering new places, but even more I enjoy understanding people and their way of life.

I grew up in a big family, so I’m used to sharing space, helping others, and being responsible. I think it also made me more patient, adaptable, and easy to live with.

I do like stepping out of my comfort zone and trying new things. For me, growth comes from real experiences, not just staying in one place.

I’m interested in simple, meaningful things — nature, good conversations, learning something new, and feeling that I’m part of a small community. In my free time I love drawing — it’s something I truly enjoy and hope to develop further in the future.

I decided to join Workaway because I want to experience a different culture from the inside, not as a tourist. I want to be useful, learn new skills, and become more independent. I believe that traveling is about connection, kindness, and sharing experiences.

I don’t have a lot of Workaway experience yet, but I’m motivated, responsible, and ready to help. I’m open to new challenges and I always try to do my best in everything I do.

More details about your skills

I may not have a lot of formal work experience yet, but I have gained many practical skills through real life and hands-on experiences.

Growing up in a big family, I learned to be responsible, adaptable, and helpful in everyday situations. I’m used to sharing space, supporting others, and taking initiative when needed.

I have experience taking care of children, and I feel comfortable spending time with them, helping with daily routines, and creating a friendly and safe environment.

I also have experience working in a rural area, including helping with physical tasks and spending time with animals. I have been around horses, which taught me patience, responsibility, and confidence when working with animals. I would love to continue improving my skills in this area.

I can help with general tasks such as cleaning, organizing, and assisting in the kitchen. While I’m not an experienced cook yet, I’m happy to help and learn more.

I enjoy drawing, which helps me express creativity and attention to detail.

I speak Ukrainian and Russian fluently, and my English level is around A2–B1. I can communicate and I’m motivated to improve my language skills through practice.

I am a fast learner, open-minded, and always ready to help. I enjoy learning new things and doing my best in any task I’m given.

What else ...

I’m a calm and easy-going person who enjoys a peaceful environment, but I can also be social and open when I feel comfortable. I really love animals and enjoy spending time in nature — whether it’s mountains, the sea, or just a quiet place outside.

I like simple activities like drawing, playing board games (like UNO), and making music — I play the violin, a bit of piano, and enjoy singing. I’m more of a night person, but I can easily adapt to different routines when needed.
