🇹🇼 About Me
Hi, my name is Tina,29 years old! I am a bit introverted, I am always energetic .I'm from Taiwan with a background in nursing. I love exploring nature, and learning about different cultures. I'm looking forward to contributing to your projects while immersing myself in local life.
🌟🌟 I have successfully received my Japan Working Holiday Visa, which gives me the flexibility to join volunteer or work paid jobs for 1 year. I don’t have driver’s license, so I usually travel by public transportation. I mainly communicate in Mandarin and English.🌟🌟

I worked as a nurse for 6 years, which has taught me patience, adaptability, and care for others. Additionally, I’m passionate about sustainable living, the climate crisis, plastic pollution, and reducing waste. I'm a nature lover who enjoys beach cleaning and spending time with animals. I also enjoy meeting people from diverse backgrounds and learning new skills. My friends describe me as responsible, kind, and easy to get along with.

I am happy to help with gardening, weeding, painting, and more!I am a person who enjoys organizing and keeping spaces tidy. If you need help organizing a house I'm happy to assist.

Through Workaway, I hope to experience life from a different perspective, contribute to meaningful projects, and make connections with hosts. I’m eager to learn about your way of life and give my best in everything I do.I am passionate about serving as an environmental volunteer. The process of learning and growing through these experiences gives me a deep sense of fulfillment and accomplishment. I also hope that my efforts, no matter how small, can inspire more people to pay attention to environmental issues.
I’m really excited about the possibility of working together and contributing amazing projects. Feel free to reach out if you’d like to know more about me. Looking forward to meeting you!

I spent a wonderful month here from December to January, and it was truly an incredible experience. A huge thank you to Barbara, Georg, Sebastian, Claudia, and the girls, Gwen and Ailbhe. This was my first time experiencing a Western Christmas and seeing snow for the first time in my life—these are memories I will cherish forever!

Barbara is such… read more

Tina stayed with us for approximately one month. We shared lots of interesting information about our culture and we found out lots of information about Tina's culture. Tina cooked a Taiwan local dish for us and it was delicious. Tina is a delightful woman with a great sense of humour, she had us rolling with laughter, she is very witty, she is… read more

Tina is ray of sunshine, and a delight to have around your home. She is punctual, conscientious and eager to learn new things. She is also very clever and practical, which makes it a pleasure to teach her. She very quickly understands new things, and has a very good intuition for practical work. Even though she's never done a task before, she… read more

I’ve spent 4 weeks here, and honestly, this place is so perfect that I hardly want to leave. Coming here felt like a gift from the universe, even though I’m alone, I’ve never once felt lonely. Outside my door, there are chickens, ducks, and geese keeping me company.

Paola and Ian taught me so much about English and environmental sustainability during my three-month stay. They are wonderful hosts who know how to make people from different backgrounds feel welcome and comfortable.

During my time there, I experienced a kind of peace and tranquility that I had never felt in urban life. At first, you might find… read more the quietness a bit unusual, but it’s exactly the kind of lifestyle that those of us who live in busy cities truly need. Here, there’s no urban convenience or money transactions — instead, you’ll be surrounded by kangaroos, cattle, and birds. Here emphasizes reducing and reusing plastic. If you’re not yet aware of the plastic crisis, you’ll have much to learn here, but it’s a journey that’s incredibly meaningful and friendly to the planet.

Paola taught me how to cook and farm.Together, we planted seeds of lettuce and beetroot, and later harvested and enjoyed eating them. Watching the plants grow and savoring their deliciousness was an experience I’d never had before.

Ian taught me so much — he’s like a walking encyclopedia. Sometimes my English wasn’t good enough to understand everything, but he was always patient and willing to explain things multiple times until I got it. He has such a great personality, and I often think back to the times we shared lunch together after a busy morning.

I also met John and Susan, and I loved living alongside them. Susan’s vegetarian cooking was absolutely delicious, and Peter’s humor kept me laughing all the time. Our evenings playing board games together were so much fun and also helped me improve my English. They are incredibly knowledgeable about climate change, and our conversations were always insightful and inspiring.

I truly enjoyed working with Gabe and Emily as well. They gave me the opportunity to experience herding cattle and horses, which was unforgettable. Our shared meals were always filled with laughter, and their genuine and kind personalities left a deep impression on me.

During my stay, I was lucky to spend time with the children during their school holidays. They were eager to help me with my English, and we had so much fun farming, playing, and dancing together during our campfire disco night!

From the very first day, everything felt so new and exciting. Each day was a chance to learn and immerse myself in nature. As Paola said, it felt like landing on Mars. When it came time to leave, I cried so much because I felt like I had adapted to life on Mars, only to return to Earth again. But I know this isn’t the end — it’s just the beginning.

This place will amaze you, teach you, and leave you with lifelong memories. But if you come here just for free accommodation and food, you might find it boring — and maybe that’s exactly the lesson you need to learn.
