Description

Hey! My name is Jo, a 41-year-old Polish girl with 6 weeks off from work between July 8th and August 18th. I would love to spend this time in Europe, any destination close to the water would be simply great, doing some hostel job, meeting new people and simply enjoying the Summer time :) I used to enjoy workaway in France and Italy a few times already and as it always was a great time, I would love to do it again.

On a daily basis I enjoy my job as an HR Specialist which gives me a great opportunity to support people. Being surrounded by others gives me a lot of good energy. I am an extrovert, love to talk and laugh, get a new experiences, read tons of books, meet people and listen to their stories, try new exotic food, cook and feed people :)

More details about your skills

Due to my work I am familiar with computer, including Outlook, Word, Excel, Power Point etc., so would be happy to support the hostel's reception etc.
I love cooking, baking, in general feeding people and according to my friends I am quite good at that :)
Cleaning and keeping house tidy is also quite natural for me (used to leave on my own for a years). Within my workaway experience I also used to help with the gardening and tiding up a small forest around the house.
In the past I was working as a nanny (3 times as an au-pair in France), I was an European volunteer in Ireland (worked with the disabled people for 6 months), worked in a shop, as an office assistant etc. so I have a lot of different experience and there is simply nothing I cannot learn to do, just need some guiding and will do my best! :)
