Description

Hello! My name is Quinn and I have recently graduated from Carthage College with a degree in Geoscience. I am currently working as a waitress in my home state of Minnesota. I have joined Work Away to connect with new people and cultures and gain travel experience. Some of my hobbies include hiking, baking, and art projects. I'm a hard worker and have experience working at a summer camp, cooking, and taking care of kids, along with server experience at a restaurant. I'm looking forward to finding an awesome Work Away experience!

Hi, I'm Hallie! I'm currently a college student in Minnesota and am graduating in May with a degree in Environmental Studies. I will be doing the Camino de Santiago in June with my Mom and am hoping to jump right into a Workaway project after that. I joined Workaway because I think it provides the most amazing and unique opportunities for travel, culture, meeting new people, working in dynamic environments, and growing as a person. I'm very outdoorsy and I enjoy working outside. Some things I like are camping, art projects, music, traveling, animals, and anything nature related. I have experience in retail, food service, housekeeping/cleaning, some gardening, and as a summer camp counselor for kids. I'm a quick learner and I'm always open to new experiences. I can't wait to see where Workaway brings me!
