Description

I spent some time traveling through South America and had the chance to do a bit of Workaway along the way, it turned out to be an amazing experience, I really hope to keep this streak going in the future.
I’d say I’m a pretty easy-going and non-contentious person, and I love learning about local culture and language wherever I go.
I also volunteered through Help Exchange in Indonesia before, teaching English, which was a great experience as well.

I work as an English teacher, so I’m happy to help with that if needed. I also have a bit of past experience helping run hostels, it’s been a while, though.

Back home, my family has a vegetable garden and I used to help out when I lived with them, so I know how to grow potatoes, tomatoes, cucumbers, radishes, and so on. I’m a quick learner and always enthusiastic about picking up new skills.
