Description

Hi! I’m Sian - a 29-year-old Software Engineer from Bristol, UK.

Outside of work, I love cooking (vegan), practising yoga, playing guitar, and bouldering. I’m also learning both German and Spanish, and I’m always keen to improve - especially through real-life conversations and cultural exchange.

Animal welfare is something I really care about, so I’d be especially excited to contribute to a Workaway project that aligns with those values.

I hold a TEFL qualification and previously spent time in Colombia teaching English, which I really enjoyed .

Currently, my German is at B2 level and my Spanish is around B1 - I'd love the chance to keep building on both!

Looking forward to connecting and hopefully working together soon.

I had a wonderful and peaceful time helping out. I spent three weeks there, I had two days off a week and worked five-hour days. The work was varied and well-structured - feed the animals first, clean the communal areas, walk the dogs, and then focus on specific projects. Linda, Dani and Will were super helpful, answering questions I had, and … read more

Sian worked for us as a volunteer last summer. She did a great job working with one other volunteers, making sure the hostel was clean and the guests were welcomed and given a tour. She worked hard and the quality of the work was high. It was also lovely to hear her playing guitar and singing! We'd love to have her back at some point.
She'll make … read more

I had a wonderful time staying for two weeks in such a beautiful location. The work mostly involved cleaning and welcoming guests. The hostel is "off-the-grid" and you really feel immersed in nature. Ron and Valerie were very friendly and welcoming and gave clear instructions to the volunteers. We even organised night nature walks with some of the … read more

I stayed with Clare, Pete and Chris (& the gorgeous kittens) for two weeks.

The work was varied and rewarding, from stripping and treating logs for construction work to (poorly) attempting to crack glass bottles directly in half. Throughout it all, Clare gave me clear directions but also encouraged me to seek out my own methods for completing … read more
