Travel information

I am currently

Description

I am currently 20 months into backpacking having travelled to 11 countries. With 8 months of that time being in Asia, 12 months in New Zealand where I worked at the world heritage site- Milford Sound as boat crew for just under 9 months.

I love the idea of Workaway and the connections you can make all over the world and I have previously done 3 workaway’s on this trip. The first one in Sri Lanka on an organic fruit farm for 2 weeks. Then the second was in Akaroa for a month where I did a variety of work from making fences to cutting back hedges. I also did 2 weeks in Gore in New Zealand doing similar and gardening activities and my most recent workaway was in Fiji for 3 weeks.

I am always up for anything and really want to help out in anyway possible, no matter the task.

I am looking to volunteer in Africa for about 2 months where I hope to be able to support the local community and work in teaching/care.
