Description
Hi, I’m Der!
I’m from Ireland and have been travelling around Southeast Asia for the past 6 months. I’m now looking to set a base for a while in Malaysia and would love the chance to experience local culture more deeply through volunteering.
This will be my first time doing Workaway, but I was raised with a strong work ethic in Irish culture and I’m not afraid of hard work. I’m flexible, reliable, and always ready to help where needed.
I’d love to immerse myself in daily life, contribute in a positive way, and stay at least 2 weeks (or longer if it works well for both sides). For me, Workaway is not just about helping but also about learning and sharing—building connections, discovering new skills, and experiencing a different pace of life.
Looking forward to meeting new people
