Description
Hello Workaway hosts!

My name is Kate, I’m 19 years old and currently in my final year of high school. I live in Šumperk, a lovely town in the Czech Republic surrounded by beautiful nature and rich culture.

This year, I’m looking for a summer job. I'd love to get to know other cultures, gain new experiences, and improve my English along the way. I’m hoping to begin my summer adventure in late June, shortly after my school year ends, and I’m available for about two months. I am open to destinations across Europe, especially in English-speaking countries, but I’m equally excited to explore other culturally diverse places. Traveling abroad excites me because it offers a chance to immerse myself in a different environment while making meaningful contributions.

I bring a positive attitude, a willingness to learn, and some experience from my previous summer jobs (I've worked as a chambermaid, a waitress, and a kitchen helper). I also spend time with my parents helping them in the garden or with tasks around our cottage. Although not extensively experienced, I’ve occasionally helped look after younger relatives and friends’ children, engaging them with games, stories, and activities. I consider myself a quick learner who enjoys taking on challenges. Whether it’s helping out with household chores, gardening, or cooking, I’m happy to contribute wherever I’m needed.

In my free time, I enjoy hiking, playing guitar, drawing, cooking, and baking. In addition, I'm a pet lover, as my family has dogs, rabbits, and cats.

Thank you for considering my profile. I look forward to meeting you, Kate

Left by Workawayer () for host (Help with gardening and some ...)

My stay with Carmel was my first Workaway experience, and I honestly couldn't believe how lucky I was to find such an amazing host! I initially stayed for a month and a half, but after leaving for a week (due to my other plans), I came back again for another two weeks - which really shows just how much I enjoyed being there.
Carmel is such a… read more kind, intelligent and welcoming person. From the very first moment we met, she made me feel like we weren't strangers, but good friends. During my whole stay, she really cared about making sure I was comfortable and spent time with me. We went on many wonderful trips together - from a boat trip to a lovely evening by the bonfire with her friends. She always made me feel included. She even booked theatre tickets and organized a trip to an alpaca farm!
The work I did was always light and manageable - helping in the kitchen, taking care of the garden, doing a bit of painting, and going for walks with Tobey and Reilly (two of the cutest dogs I know!) Honestly, one of my favourite parts of the day was cuddling with them and watching their hilarious interactions:) . I never felt any pressure regarding the work - everything was very relaxed and fair.
I also appreciated the heartwarming people around her - her neighbors Josie and John, her family, and her many (and it's no surprise!) lovely friends.

The nature around there is beautiful as well. The house is in a great location, so you can use a bike to explore places. I visited all of the nearby beaches, went sightseeing and enjoyed walks around the city. Also, there is a nice path around the neighbourhood. I often went there in the evenings during the sunset and my God, how beautiful that was! You can hear the cute cows in the fields, smell the grass and flowers , and above there is a blue sky that mixes with red clouds...)
Even now (about six months later), I still feel a wave of emotion and miss that time, because it was one of the best summers I've ever had. Spending time with Carmel has given me so much. She showed me how important it is to be open and helpful to others. As I got to know her, I kept discovering all the amazing things she does for people, and it really touched my heart. She is a beautiful example of someone who helps whenever she can, whether it’s for those close to her or for people simply in need...
I’d like to thank Carmel once again for such a marvelous experience. I feel incredibly lucky that I had this opportunity.
I can only recommend her as a host, because this stay won’t just enrich your language, but your life as well!

(Excellent)
