  • Description

    Hi everyone!
    My name is Ilan and I am a student physiotherapist and collector of knowledge and life. Originally from the US, with a mixed ethnic background and culture. I spent many years in Germany and later traveling around the world before settling to study in beautiful Scotland.

    I am passionate about travelling, connecting, trying new foods, learning new languages, being resourceful and thrifty, and overall adventuring and having a good time. I love exploring and learning and am seeking to see as much of the world as possible, while taking a little piece of each place with me when we go. Anything I don't know, I am willing to learn and believe we can all teach and share things with one another.

    I love using workaway as a way to meet new people, learn new skills, and help as much as we can while learning about the place and people that make up the culture. I am also very passionate about the preservation of the environment and the role we play in that, as well as equality for all, regardless of sexual orientation, gender, race, ethnicity, or religion. I believe that our differences make us unique and they should be appreciated instead of hated. I am hard-working, dedicated, and enthusiastic about helping others and creating long lasting relationships. :)
