Description

Hey there, lovely to meet you! My name is Holly and I live by a 'go with the flow' and 'always keep smiling' motto. I'm 26 years old. I have a degree in media production and my employment background has been in television production and teaching in higher education at my home country, England.

I strive to keep a positive attitude and high energy with whatever I'm doing. I'm passionate about photography, if I can have a camera in my hand wherever I go, then I will. I enjoy teaching, but most importantly I enjoy learning. There is always more to learn. I would love to learn about a range of cultures and other ways of living I'am yet to explore. Including learning other languages and 'hands on' skills. I would like to learn more about looking after animals, conservation and agriculture.

I adore nature, forests, jungles and water of any kind! I love all animals, from the bugs to the big 5. Some of my favorites are butterflies, dragonflies, monkeys and even little ants. They are all fascinating.

I would like to distance myself from the 'rat race' life I have been living. I would like to help people, animals and in general, have a positive impact on the world with my actions, one step at a time. I'm ready to get to work with my first Workaway experience and I hope to meet some lovely humans soon.

Big hugs and one love,
Holly

More details about my language interests
I would love to learn another language. I do struggle with learning languages as I'am dyslexic. This means I can struggle with writing and spelling. However I'm very keen to push through this and learn a new language. Especially a local language to a workaway experience. To help me communicate with the local people. It feels important to be able to do this.
