Description
I am motivated by the ability to have new, exciting experiences and connect with people who I would otherwise not meet! Meeting people from different backgrounds and countries is essential for having a good understanding of the world and building solidarity with those who live on it. I have done workaway a few times in the past and found it very fulfilling.

I'm also super keen to learn new skills and develop the ones I have!

More details about your skills
I love being outdoors and have a bit of experience in manual labour, and am always happy to get active and work hard. I also love working with food and cooking, I am vegan which I think forces me to get creative and discover new things! I get a lot of satisfaction from organisational tasks and doing things to a high standard.

Freya joined us for nearly two weeks just as the snow started falling and it was such a pleasure having her here. As the previous hosts said, she's friendly, intelligent and very capable, willingly turning her hand to anything from heavy snow clearing to carpentry and doing it well. Besides which she is a talented vegan cook, which was such a… read more

Donna and Nik are the best :). The kind of people that feel like old friends as soon as you have met. They welcomed me into their home for the second time and I'm sure it will not be the last. I helped out in the garden, tried some pottery and helped around the house. We enjoyed incredible meals cooked by Donna who approached my veganism as a fun… read more

Freya is the perfect workawayer - she is friendly, intelligent and open-minded. We shared some great discussions and we appreciated her insight. She worked hard, was happy to get involved in anything we were doing and needed no supervision.
We would happily host her again.
