Description
Hi! I am a 31 year old gal originally from Canada living in Scotland planting trees as a career! I have a degree in archaeology and am planning to transition into massage therapy - my life and my interests have made my career life very exciting over the years. This is why I love volunteering - I love meeting new people, slowing down my travels to really know a place and learn about the culture, and also to acquire new skills.
I have experience working mainly in hostels and some bartending, but I also ran my own company as a painter decorator for 8 years so am happy to paint or do some maintenance work. I also love landscaping/gardening and am keen to learn more about farming!
I would love to engage with animals, goats/sheep, and try beekeeping !
In addition to all of this I have many varied hobbies but which include reading, geocaching, crafting, and sketching.

I spent a month on the farm helping out with the animals and various tasks - a bit of painting and yard work. It was great to be out on my own to make my own schedule and work on some projects I had on the go. I also got to go into Varna at my leisure and explore the city or just pass time at the beautiful beach.
The farm has an amazing view with… read more

We were happy to welcome Ashley in our team! Ashley is a good and hard worker: no matter what - she will do it. She has a lot of knowledge in construction and she finds solutions spontaneously. She helped us a lot in the hostel. We wish you all the best for your future Ashley!

This was my first workaway experience and I’m so happy to say it went really well! I spent just under three weeks working here doing things like making beds, cleaning bathrooms, preparing breakfast, and smaller specialized tasks to get the hostel ready for high season. I was quickly welcomed into a group that felt like family, always treated… read more
