Description
Hi! My name is Michelle. I am 26 years old and living in Brisbane, Australia. I currently work in the hospitality industry and also have a degree in Interactive and Visual Design - with a particular interest in art installation pieces. I am currently struggling with a creative block and am unsure of the direction I'd like to take in my future career.
I will be travelling through Switzerland over Aug/Sep, eventually ending up in the UK. A Workaway would be a great opportunity to try something new, meet new people and get creatively inspired. Most importantly, it will push me out of my comfort zone.
I love being creative, doing hands-on work and working with others. I am passionate about animals, working with children and contributing to eco-friendly projects.

Feedback
Except from doing the shift she was going on walks with the dogs, spending a lot of time with them in the cages, she painted a beautiful mural on the fort and she was baking the best ever cookies every few days.
She's super friendly and easygoing, we couldn't have asked for a better volunteer. ❤
I spent the last 6 weeks here and, like others have said, I haven't stopped thinking about it since. This was my first Workaway and I don't think anything will come close to how much I enjoyed it here. I already miss the dogs and cats so much and spending my days surrounded by the other amazing volunteers.
