Description

Hi!
I'm Silja from Copenhagen, Denmark. From September (13/09/2022) I'll be traveling in Southeast Asia for around a year. My plan and motivation for my trip is to gain a lot of experiences, meet new people and enjoy the culture of Asia.

From working in my home city I've experienced that you get the best friends and learn the most about the city you stay in by working. Therefore, WorkAway seems like the perfect option for me when traveling in order to learn about and enjoy the different cultures in the best way.
