Description
I grew up in Poland but after high school I moved to the Netherlands for 2 years. I also spent a year in the USA in high school. I studied biology for 2 years at the University of Warsaw. However I found living in a big city disconnected from nature made me feel anxious and unhappy. I finally decided to join workaway after putting it off for a couple of years when my friend reminded me that this is a perfect moment in my life to travel. I really love nature, animals, and plants. I enjoy hiking, climbing, painting and sharing my interests with others. From May till the end of August I worked in the north of Norway at a camping and guesthouse complex as a housekeeper and a receptionist. Later I hitchhiked through Norway for 2 weeks and now I am in Tenerife. I like to cook vegan/vegetarian food. I am used to working in the garden. As a biologist it brings me a lot of joy to work with plants and animals. I am also a babysitter and English tutor. Most importantly I am looking forward to meeting all the other amazing Workawayers and hosts who share my passion of travelling, and getting to know the world :)

More details about your skills
I can do garden work. I am quite strong as I climb regularly so if there are physical tasks in the garden I can also help with those. Growing up I had a dog and cats so I know how to take care of them (and really love to do so). I am a babysitter for childeren the youngest was two years old, the oldest is 10 now. I really love painting and sharing this passion with others. I am also an english tutor for kids and adults. I worked in a restaurant and I cleaned houses. I am very thorough and enjoy organizing space around me. I am vegetarian since I was 11 and I started learning to cook then. I really love cooking vegan/vegetarian food (never really cooked meat but I don't mind people eating it around me, it just my personal preference). I like turning mediterranean, asian and polish cuisine recipes vegan. I am also very open and happy to learn.
