Description
Hello! My name is George, I'm from England.
I am a very active and outdoorsy person, walking my dog, spending time with our chickens, and reading outside when the weather's okay. I've always loved adventures - the idea of exploring the countrysides and cultures of different places is very exiting to me. When I am not travelling I work as a gardener and a waitress at a local cafe. I feel most peaceful when I am outdoors, whether working or relaxing as I feel it quietens my mind. Although I'm quite a philosophical person and enjoy being creative (especially through drawing) I am not afraid of hard work. Hopefully, I can learn some new skills through this experience.
I always look forward to the cultural and educational exchange of traveling. Even though the places are great, I think its often the people you meet that make the time you spend in different places.Interests

More details about your skills
I am a hardworking and determined individual, who’s always up for a challenge. I have great teamwork and communication skills and have learnt the importance of listening in many situations.
I really enjoy photography and love the idea that a single photo can induce memories - a form of communication that shares a story and emotions without saying a word. This is another reason why I love to travel and immerse myself in nature.
As a family, we have rescued chickens and dogs; I've loved animals since I was young, and have taken every opportunity to be around them as I find their presence calming and motivating. We have always grown fruit and vegetables in our garden - I find the process refreshing and would love to learn more about contributing to a more sustainable and environmentally friendly world. I do appreciate the time, hard work, and effort that goes into it but think it's definitely worth it for the results.
I am looking forward to putting my ability to adapt quickly and willingness to learn into practice, and believe it will be a great asset when volunteering.Age

What else ...
I love cooking and would relish the chance to learn about local cuisines and dishes that I can replicate after my travels.
Although I'm young, I bring an enthusiastic attitude, a readiness to set my hand to anything, and a desire to acquire knowledge. I'm especially keen to undertake any animal-related experiences.Some more information
