Description
Hi!

I am 22 years old and live in the South East of England near London. I have just graduated from studying geography at University. I studied in Manchester in the UK and also did a year studying in Amsterdam.

I am now keen to have a break from studying so am currently travelling around South East and am currently in Laos. I am hoping to meet new people, learn new skills and experience different things. I am a very sociable, open minded and outgoing person and I love cooking, sports, being outdoors and experiencing new places and cultures!

More details about your skills
I have just returned home from spending a year in Amsterdam where I lived with 10 other students from around the world who all spoke different languages. From this experience I learnt how to effectively communicate in English to non-native speakers and how to quickly connect with new people. I learnt how to adapt and thrive in a new city and made friends for life.

I am also a quick learner, practical and have previously worked in various jobs. I have been a chef, a lifeguard and have lots of experience working with children. I work well in a team and love a challenge! Overall, I am very enthusiastic and can't wait to get stuck-in and make the most of my workaway experiences!

We loved it here! It was our first workaway experience and it did not disappoint!
We stayed with Phonephet and his lovely family for 10 days and were very sad to leave at the end:(
This place is truly ‘easy easy Lao style’ and is perfect if you want to immerse yourself in the culture a little more off the beaten track.
The ambition of the project… read more
