Travel information

I am currently

Description

My name is Evan and I am from Sydney Australia. I studied Civil Engineering and Commerce at university and have worked for the past 6 years as an engineer on infrastructure projects in Australia. I decided to take a break from work and take some time to travel the world and learn new things along the way. My interests are broad, such as languages, travel, reading, construction and drawing, to name a few.

While my first language is English, I have a Greek background and grew up learning some Greek at home. I have also taught myself Spanish, and a bit of Italian.

I am a very hands on person, completing home maintenance and home renovations in Australia, and gardening.

While I'm no master cook, I enjoy cooking and eating good food!

Through a workaway experience I hope to learn about life in another country, gain new practical skills in renovating or home maintenance, practice languages, and learn more about gardening or life on a farm. I hope I can also share my skills with you and ad value to your projects!

More details about my language interests
I would love to further improve my Spanish. I learnt Greek as child due to my greek heritage, and always love an opportunity to practice and improve. I have also learnt some basic Italian in the past and would like the opportunity revisit the language and get to a conversational level.
