Description
Kia ora Workaway family! My name is Serena! I am super keen to spend the next year embracing french language, culture and landscapes. I love interacting with nature, building community and making connections over shared food and conversation. I would love to expand my knowledge of working the land and living more sustainably and understand food production systems better. I'm a hard worker, fit and active and ready to get my hands dirty. Also happy to embrace language exchange opportunities, childcare, petsitting, and other odd jobs. I look forward to connecting with you.
