Description
Hey All!
I'm Lisa
I have been traveling with Workaway for the last couple of months. I am truly loving this lifestyle. I find it incredible rewarding. There is a lot I have learned about myself including many practical skills.
I'm a young 48 year old from Cape Town South Africa. I have traveled in Europe, the United Kingdom, Israel, Brazil as my well as a couple of African countries. I am now heading off to India and South East Asia to find out more about this amazing continent.
After qualifying as a Tefl teacher, I have begun to teach children in other nations. I hope to continue teaching through workaway. After school I went to teachers training college. However, I was distracted by other paths before returning to teaching which inspires me.
I'm also passionate about nature and the environment and Workaway allows me to explore while connecting with people at the same time.
I worked in a kibbutz, helped in schools in Brazil and am an experienced cook.
