Description

Hi there!

My name is Iga and I'm a 19-year-old student from Poland. I currently study English and Spanish philology and I'm going to study Psychology in September too. Fortunately, summer is less busy and so I am more than eager to spend quality time abroad, learning about culture of another European country.

I'd love to help around the house, with animals and/or children! I have a fair share of knowledge about gardening too as my family loves to grow our own vegetables and herbs.

I'm a writer, hobbyist copywriter and a lover of worldbuilding - that resulted in a fair share of creativity I can provide for all sorts of stuff :) Really, if you're into deep conversations about all kinds of creating your own stories? That's magical. And beautiful!

Also a fan of motorization here! Though not the most educated one, I'd love to know more!

More details about my language interests
My mother tongue is Polish which I'm always eager to teach although it's pretty tricky, and I'm fluent in English. I am an English teacher, I've been working for 2 years now and I just love sharing my passion for this language :) I've been teaching children and teens aged 7 - 18 but people my age tend to have more patience and that's 100x better! When it comes to learning myself I'm currently grinding Spanish - it's my uni major, so I'm really really interested in Spanish speaking hosts hoping I could brush up on my speaking and comprehension skills.

What else ...

It would be my first travel with Workaway so I may seem a little overwhelmed at first but there's nothing I want to do more than experience life in other country. I've been on several trips abroad but never have they been so down-to-earth, focused on simply living a life :)
