Description
Hi! I’m Charly, a curious and open-minded person who loves learning about the world through real experiences and people. I’m currently studying at Jagiellonian University in Kraków, and I’m passionate about cultures, sustainability, and projects that make a positive impact.
I’d describe myself as thoughtful, reliable, and warm-hearted, but also quite adventurous. I enjoy being outdoors, biking, rowing, or spending time with animals, especially horses, and I love taking care of plants. I’m happiest when I’m active, learning something new, or working with others on something meaningful.
I joined Workaway because I believe travel should be about exchange, sharing skills, stories, and perspectives. I like learning from people with different backgrounds and contributing where I can, whether it’s helping with gardening, animals, cooking, or community projects.
I’m organized, clean, and easy-going. I love learning languages, cooking vegetarian/pescetarian meals, and helping create a peaceful, welcoming space. I’m always open to new experiences, whether it’s farm work, animal care, cultural projects, or hospitality tasks.

Through my studies, I’ve gained experience in communication, teamwork, research, and intercultural understanding. I enjoy working with people from different backgrounds and finding ways to make cooperation smooth and enjoyable.
I’m also a hands-on and adaptable person, I can help with:
Gardening and plant care (I love plants and enjoy creating green spaces, I am also great at removing
weeds from gardens)

I’m a quick learner, patient, and curious. If there’s something I don’t know, I’m always ready to learn. I enjoy both quiet, focused tasks and more social, active ones, whether it’s helping in the garden, preparing meals, or supporting community or cultural projects.
The only thing I really want is clearly communicated expectations.

What else ...
Right now I am really looking to expand my horse care and riding skills. So I am looking for someone who can teach me more about horses. Besides that, learning about shearing sheep and making wool would be fantastic.

I was able to have a good morning routine - it was never boring.
Marcin made great (vegetarian) food for me, which created some funny… read more
