Who I Am and What I’m Looking For

I’m a digital nomad with flexible online work, looking for opportunities to combine my independent lifestyle with meaningful experiences, human connection, and time spent close to nature.

I work online, so a reliable internet connection is essential. However, my schedule is flexible, which means I can organise my day around other responsibilities and help out at different times. I’m looking for a place where there is a good balance between my own work and contributing to the household or community I’m staying with.

I’m open to different kinds of opportunities, and I’d be particularly interested in:

- House sitting and home care: Looking after someone’s home while they’re travelling or away for an extended period, keeping things tidy, watering plants, and making sure everything is taken care of.
- Pet and animal sitting: Caring for dogs, cats, or other animals while their owners are away. I enjoy being around animals and would be happy to give them attention, companionship, and proper care.
- Helping families with children: I’m a teacher of English, physics, mathematics, and computer science. I’m patient, enjoy working with children, and am good at explaining things in a clear and accessible way. I’d be happy to help with homework, language practice, or other educational activities.
- Cooking and everyday household tasks: I enjoy cooking and would be glad to help prepare meals and take care of small daily responsibilities.
- Gardening and light outdoor work: I love nature and have always wanted to have my own garden. I’d be happy to help with planting, watering, growing vegetables, and other manageable garden tasks.

I’m not particularly suited to heavy physical labour, but I’m reliable and happy to contribute in practical ways that match my abilities.

Ideally, I’d love to spend time in a peaceful place, perhaps in the countryside, a small village, or a home surrounded by nature. I’m also open to longer stays, especially when someone needs a trustworthy person to look after their home or animals while they’re away.

I also practise Reiki and have an interest in well-being, personal growth, and mindful living.

For me, a great Workaway experience is about mutual trust, flexibility, and finding an arrangement that works well for everyone. I want to be genuinely helpful, share my skills, learn from the people I meet, and enjoy a different way of living while continuing my online work.

If you need someone responsible to look after your home or animals, someone to help your children learn, or simply an extra pair of hands with everyday life, I’d be happy to hear from you. I’m open to different possibilities and would love to find the right fit.

More details about my language interests
I currently work as an English online teacher at a private school. I have a flexible schedule and arrange my lessons according to my own availability, which means I can easily adapt my work to different situations. I am therefore quite flexible and able to take part in various activities and help with different tasks while staying with a host.

More details about your skills

I am an experienced private teacher and tutor, specialising in English, Mathematics, Physics and other science subjects. I am particularly good at working with students who find mathematics difficult or have lost confidence in their abilities. I am patient, communicative and good at explaining complicated things in a simple and understandable way.

I am also comfortable working independently and online, and I am used to organising my own time. I have experience caring for elderly people and I am happy to spend time with them, keep them company and help with everyday activities.

I am practical and willing to help with household tasks, gardening, cooking, cleaning and other things that need to be done. I learn quickly and I am happy to try new tasks.

I speak Polish, English and German. I enjoy meeting people, communicating and learning about different cultures. I am responsible, calm, friendly and adaptable, and I always try to be useful wherever I am.

What else ...

I am especially interested in finding places where I can spend a little more time and really experience the local surroundings rather than just passing through. I love nature, being outdoors and having the opportunity to slow down and enjoy a different way of life.

I also really enjoy spending time by the sea, especially during the colder months. I always look for opportunities to extend the summer a little bit — swimming in warm water, snorkelling with a mask when possible, walking along the beach and simply enjoying the sun and nature. Being somewhere warm and close to the sea is always a big plus for me.

At the same time, I am open to different kinds of places. What matters most to me is having the chance to spend some meaningful time there, get to know the area, meet interesting people and be genuinely helpful to my host.
