Description

Hi, my name is Anka and I grew up in Belgrade, Serbia.
I love people, travelling and nature.
Even tough I am attracted to the zoom of cities and enjoy them, spending time in nature and wilderness gives me immense happiness and am hoping to settle down in such a place later in life. I hope one day I will live in an off-grid community with friends, so I would love to join some similar organisations trough Workaway and learn about communal and off-grid living, gardening, eco-projects and alike. I am interested in agroecology and am aiming to expand my knowledge on how to farm in synchrony with nature, working with nature rather than against.
I have recently graduated in Environmental Science in England, a profession I have chosen because my passion for nature and its protection.
I like to draw and paint and sing. I am not a professional at any of these tho (but usually sing quietly so dont worry haha).
I am joining Workaway hoping that it will bring me to new friends, experiences and am also eager to help on whats needed!

More details about your skills

I am a graduate in Environmental Science from University of East Anglia. During my degree I have done a lot of ecology modules so am familiar with aquatic and terrestrial ecology.
My dad has a small farm in Serbia, where I am from, so from a young age I have been planting and harvesting with him. I enjoy this very much. I know a bit about agroecology and agroforestry.
Since my dad is a vet I have always been around animals. At home we have two cats and a dog. I love animals and know my way around them.
I am fluent in English and Serbian, and have just started to learn Spanish so would love to exchange language practices!
