Description
Hi there,
I am a young woman studying Ecology and Conservation at University. I am passionate about learning languages and am currently teaching myself Spanish and French and very much would like to try lean Italian.
I have lots of past workaway projects and have found that my favourite projects to become involved in are community based projects working on off grid and sustainable lifestyles, NGO organisations working with vulnerable people including refugees and the homeless, animal shelters and ecological projects working in conservation.
A little about me, I am an avid reader, I play the bass guitar, I come from a big family and I love any opportunity to learn- be that about culture, history, spirituality, sustainable techniques or just a persons story.
Unfortunately my past account was deleted when I didn't renew it and I have lost my old reviews.

More details about your skills
I have experience working with animals through dog shelters, a range of animals at a rare breeds protection farm and a turtle protection sanctuary.
I have worked with plants through farm work and sustainable agroforestry reforestation.
I have worked as a yoga teacher at a hostel but have no formal experience other than my mum being one.
I have also worked with vulnerable people through volunteering with refugee aid on the border of France. I also volunteer with language support in my own city for refugees and with FoodCycle, an organisation using food which would otherwise be thrown away to cook and serve to our homeless community.
I am currently studying Ecology and Conservation and studied environmental Science for two years so have a basic knowledge on various farming and sustainable techniques, which is contextualised through my hands own experience farming and managing land.
