Description
My name is Zhang Xiaoyan, but you can also call me Candice. I am a sophomore law student currently taking a gap year. I am an outgoing girl who loves learning about new things. I used to have a Workaway account, but unfortunately, my email was hacked, and now that I’m abroad, I can’t recover it.
I’ve had three experiences as a Workawayer. My first was at a surf shop in Hainan, China, where I was responsible for cleaning and taking photos of customers. The second was in Perth, where I helped with gardening, dog walking, and decorating for a Halloween party. My third was in Sydney, where I took care of an elderly person, walked their dog, cleaned, cooked, and did other household tasks. I got along very well with all my hosts and really liked them. I also made friends from all over the world and greatly enjoyed the cultural exchanges.
I am also very enthusiastic about public service and have actively participated in various environmental initiatives at school. For example, I used to join weekly lake clean-ups and rescue stray animals.
I absolutely adore animals, and I have a Pomeranian at home. I love her dearly and often walked her, played fetch with her, and even cooked meals for her. Right now, my parents are taking care of her.
I am always eager to learn new languages, acquire new skills, and meet new people!

She was very kind and helpful with my parents, especially my mum.
She worked hard doing various things around the house and absolutely loved our dogs. Was so cute to see her with them.
We loved having her. She became part of our family.
They are by far the best hosts I've ever encountered. From the moment I arrived, they embraced me as part of their own family.
