Description

Hello, nice to meet you,

I'm a friendly, open-minded massage therapist and hospitality worker from England.

I'm currently travelling in Europe and looking for new workaways and exciting opportunities - I work mostly in massage therapy or a hostel/hotel/service environment - but I am not fussy and will happily join any workaway that seems like a good match! I really enjoy meeting new people, especially other travellers from around the world and find doing workaways is a great way to properly get to know the area and local culture.

I have over a decade of customer service experience - I've held roles including bartender, receptionist, host, waitress, housekeeper, kitchen assistant, cook, cleaner.

I enjoy hiking, yoga, boxing, reading and, of course, traveling. I am always up for trying new activities and learning new skills. Perhaps if you are the same we can teach each other something new :)

I am currently looking for somewhere to work over the winter 2026, so if you have a vacancy that needs filling please get in touch - I would love to hear from you!

Other info:

- I have EU citizenship.

- I don't drive

- I do smoke, but I am not a heavy smoker. I will always dispose of any litter in a safe and respectful way, and move away from people/buildings to ensure it doesn't bother anyone.

I spent a month on Steve and Diana's gorgeous eco reserve. The work is just 3 hours a day and Steve is very flexible - if you want to work more one day and have the next off you can. We were given a beautiful house for the volunteers nestled between the trees. The work is mainly construction however I spent a lot of my time looking after Kiya and … read more

We had a fantastic experience with Seph here on the farm. She was a great help with looking after our kids and she got on well with the other volunteers. She was also willing to go that extra mile to do extra things to help out. We had a great laugh together and highly recommend her for any other projects 😃

Seph is a very charismatic, active person, with the best attitude in the assigned tasks, always with a smile on her face.
Her stay at the hostel was a great help at times when I had to go out. She makes an effort to learn Spanish and is succeeding.
I recommend her, she is a lovely and helpful girl. Her massages are spectacular, she is always ready … read more

This hostel is my 3rd workaway experience and easily one of the best! I stayed for a month and was given a beautiful private room for my work.
Food is not provided but the breakfast is delicious and very reasonably priced. If you are travelling on a budget it's just 2 minutes walk from the local shops and you can use the shared kitchen for cooking … read more
