Hi hello,
I'm Danielle and since November I started my journey as a WorkAwayer.
Recently I felt the urge to get out of my normal hustle & bustle and to take steps to get closer to nature and the world. I'm happy I finally have the opportunity to travel the world in a different way through WorkAway. I'm very interested to start explore and develop new experiences in gardening, permaculture, farming, animal care, sustainability, renovating projects etc. Hopefully this will bring me enough experience to start my own gardening/permaculture/farming adventure in the future.
I have a background in physiotherapy (bachelor, not working), health sciences (master) and recently worked in IT as an application developer. Due to my background and overall interests in health I might be of help with projects that involve health, exercising or computer/IT support.
Also, due to my love for animals (I grew up with cats, dogs and rabbits) and the environment I eat vegetarian but open to be flexible if vegetarian food is a limited option due to cultural reasons for example. Food and cooking is something I love and very interested in learning new things (my vegetarian kimchi is a big winner). Due to my family background I also know a good amount of Indonesian and Japanese (vegetarian) dishes.
What else? I travel with my camera, ready to record all my beautiful moments during my traveling. If I can be of help with some photography projects then you can count on me.Interests

More details about your skills
At the moment I don’t have much experience in the points shown in my profile (beside some gardening experience at my parental house) but a keen and enthusiastic learner. I’m hardworking and always very committed. Which is why I don’t expect this to be a problem as I will be learning on the job :)
I do have enough skills in cooking and general chores around the house which might make up for some of the others.Age
