Description

Hi, my name is Erik and I'm from Canada! I'm a recent graduate from an international secondary school in India and am currently studying International Relations and Environmental Studies in Austria.

I love travelling and finding ways to live around the world while experiencing and learning from the people I meet (on a student's budget haha). I'm into hiking and the outdoors, and in my spare time like photography, reading, and generally exploring. I'm excited to learn new skills through workaway and for whatever adventures it brings:)

More details about your skills

I have some experience as a housekeeper, server, chef, barista, tutor, and through many volunteer events. Hopefully these will come in handy while travelling! I've also worked on projects helping children with English skills or which involve language barriers and have learned about facilitating communication.

During my schooling in India, I worked with several local NGOs, so have some experience aiding in community projects while being respectful of cultural differences and not imposing my own views or ways of life on others.
