Description
Hi!
I'm Charlotte, a 27 year-old Swiss girl willing to contribute to work when I travel the world! I believe a full genuine experience is acquired when you meet locals and get to know the culture by living closer to the local every day life for a while, and this is what really motivates me to travel in the first place.
I have also just finished my studies in Environmental Engineering and am absolutely in love with the outdoors, so any work concerning the environment e.g. planning waste/water treatments, agriculture and so on would be really exciting for me, although social work would please me as well. I am from the Alps, I have experience with mountain pastures (goats) and gardening and have done some WWOOFing in Portugal and Norway before. I am a motivated and curious person, willing to give as much energy as I can to help out with what is needed.

I am looking forward to a great exchange in culture and experience, and to discover a new part of this beautiful and precious planet!
