Description
Hi there! I am Tara (32). I have a big passion for traveling. I went to New Zealand a few years ago with a working holiday visa, and had the most amazing time! So I decided to quit my job, and do the same thing in Australia and Canada now that I have the last chance (because of my age)!
I have worked the winter months in Revelstoke, BC and am now going around different places in Canada to see as much as possible in the time I have here, and hope to do some workaways on the way :).
I am a caring, resposible, easy going, patient and reliable. I have a kind and calm personallity, and can be friends with anyone :). I have worked different jobs in the past like housekeeping, reception work, horticulture work and fruit picking. I work well and am always open to learn new things.

Feedback
The location itself is peaceful, surrounded by fields and forests, and has stunning sunsets every night. It felt like the perfect environment to destress and connect with nature.
During my stay, I had the chance to spend a lot of time working with the birds… read more
