    Travelling

  • Description

    I have just finished my undergraduate studies in Cape Town and am keen to spend some time travelling before I get tied into a career. I firmly believe that keeping my mind open will expose me to opportunities that I never would have imagined otherwise. The Workaway mentality therefore is ideal for me as immersing myself in work and engaging with the people of a region is the best way to expand my view of the world and remain open to opportunity.

    I am excited to experience as much of the world as possible. I believe that immersing one's self in a place and culture is the ideal way to explore the world and learn about people and myself.

    I love engaging with people and the environment and the prospect of finding placements in which I can experience both of these aspects of travel is exciting.

  • What else ...

    I love spending time underwater. My family and I scuba dive together and I have my Padi Advanced licence. Throughout my time at university I learned to freedive and have taken up a hobby of spearfishing.

    I love music and have taught myself guitar, ukulele, marimba, and took lessons in clarinet at school. The social aspect of performing and sharing music is a joy I would love to share and experience more.
