Description
Hiya! I’m Eden (21) from Manchester, England. I’m an adventurous, open-minded traveler who thrives on learning new skills, living simply, and getting stuck into practical work.
Currently, I work as a barista and waiter while going through the recruitment process to become a firefighter. I'm driven by a passion to serve my local community and make my city a safer place. Because of this, I maintain a high level of physical fitness, a strong work ethic, and a natural mindset for teamwork and hands-on problem-solving.
I have completed 6 official Workaways across Asia and Europe - ranging from teaching assistance in community schools to hands-on farmwork, construction, and building maintenance in Italy.
I’m motivated by a desire to try as many different experiences as possible, connect with local communities, and learn about the history and culture of every place I visit. In November and December, I’m traveling through Japan with my grandmother, Glynis, who is as sharp, active, and hardworking as they come! We are both excited to contribute our energy and practical skills to host projects along the way. -
