Description
Oh how difficult it is to describe yourself! I'm Anna, I'm from the UK and i'm currently on a career break. I am a scientist in environmental biotechnology and I am very passionate about sustainability and nature.
I have spent the past few months travelling Asia, including solo hiking in the Himalayas in Nepal and swimming with turtles in Indonesia. I found the most rewarding memories and experiences were cultural exchanges. I am really keen to broaden my horizons and share European cultures via workaways, when you are in hostels you only meet other foreigners!
In short; I am inquisitive, creative and love to listen to music! My spotify ranges all genres of music, so I am sure we can find something to dance to whilst cooking. As an environmentalist I am a lover of all plants and animals. My hope is to learn more permaculture skills to live off the land.Interests
