  • Description

    My name is Aleks and I love to travel, spend time in nature, and make new friends.

    My goals with Workaway are to see more of the beautiful nature in the world, learn new skills, have interesting experiences, and meet new people.

    I love socializing but also respect people's personal time and space.

    Down-to-earth and always eager to learn.

    I'm easy to get along with, clean, and respectful.

    Looking forward to meeting you.

    All the best,
    Aleks
