Description
Hi people of workaway!
My name is Lucy
I am 19 years old, currently living in the Netherlands (Dordrecht) with my parents and younger brother. My father is English and my mother is Dutch, so I am fluent in both languages. I just finished my last year of Dutch highschool, and am having a gap year this year before I go to university. I love exploring new places and helping people out, which is why I decided to sign up for workaway and travel in this year!
I love baking and cooking, and am currently working in a bakery in Dordrecht! I would love to learn more about these things or help out in these areas, but ofcourse this is not a must. In many things I am still a beginner, and since this is my first time doing anything like workaway I might take a bit of time to adjust, but I am very eager to learn and would love to pick up some new skills along the way!
Besides working in a bakery I have also done quite some babysitting since I was thirteen, so I know how to handle children, and love kids!
I am looking for new experiences, new skills to learn, new people to meet, and I want to make the most out of my gap year!
