Description

Hi! I’m a 25 year old medical school graduate from Poland. From the very beginning I liked to travel and meet new, interesting people. The love to travel was ingrained to me by my parents. As I grew older I got an itch to see new places on my own. It’s one of the few reasons that convinced me to join Workaway platform.

In my free time I love being close to nature by going on hikes and doing cross-country biking. In summer I do water sports such as kitesurfing. My studies do not give me much spare time during the school semester so during the summer holidays I try to get as much out of my free time as I can. Being around other people brings me joy!

I have both a younger and an older brothers. We are very close with each other. Living in a house of 5 taught me a lot about family values. We also have an 14-year old cat :).

I am no stranger to working abroad, I spent 7 weeks each of the last four years working in Germany in various places.

I speak fluent English and Polish. My German language is on communicative level.

More details about your skills

I love working around other people. Im quite tall and fit. I’m not afraid of physical work. I think logically when solving problems, assess every situation calmly, and try to find a reasonable solution.

My experience involves a few temporary jobs like delivering pizza. I also worked privately as a both English and Chemistry tutor for middle-school children. I feel like the the languages are one of my stronger aspects. During the summer holidays the last two years I worked in Karls, which is a German amusement park brand. First year involved mostly gardening and general cleaning jobs outside. This year I worked as a ticket seller and as a clerk in a shop. It allowed me to learn how a shop functions, how to work at a counter. It also required me to deescalate a lot of conflicts successfully,
