Description
Hi everyone!😊

My name is Sara. I am from Norway. I started travelling May 2022 to learn more about different cultures and to see what the world has to offer and teach me. I love yoga, meditation, healthy living & food, hiking, working out, nature (especially water), reading, spirituality and animals, which is why I'm vegan. I am a really warm hearted, helpful, open minded, friendly and funny person, who loves to learn new things and skills! I love to meet and get to know new people.

Work I would love to do on Workaway:
- Childcare: I grew up in a big family, at one point we were 7 people together, so I am familiar with the family chaos. My youngest sister is 10 years younger than me, and I loved spending time with her. I have helped with my 2 nieces and 2 nephews, and I used to coach a children's team of European Handball. I also worked as an Au Pair for a bit over 5 months. I find it very refreshing to be around children, and see how free and happy they are. Only concerned about having fun, and I would love to contribute to that as much as possible.
- Animal care: I have been around animals all my life. I even went to a kindergarten on a farm. I have always had animals in the house growing up and love being around them. I have also done Workaways on farms and similar, and love it. I also did a farm stay in Australia for 3 months working with sheeps and cows.
- Gardening, cutting, watering, cleaning, fruit picking. I have done a lot of it in my life, more so on Workaway. I really love any work that allows me to be in nature, and I find it really therapeutic.
I would also love to do some renovation work, as it is a dream of mine to one day renovate my own home, semi from scratch. So I am very motivated and grateful to learn more about it, cause I do not know too much about it, yet.

I love Workaway, as it is giving an opportunity to get to know the locals, allows me to become a part of families and feel like home while travelling, maybe learn a few local secrets or two, and seeing new cultures and countries beyond the tourist show. Staying at hostels isn't really for me, as I do not party or drink. Instead, I want to explore, go on adventures, learn new life skills and lessons, and play my new ukulele.
Also, fair warning; I am a morning person😉

I hope I get to hear from and meet you soon😊

Staying with Fiona and Val was amazing. First of all, they let me stay a bit last minute, event tho they already had a Workaway staying for a few more days. Therefore I was only supposed to stay for a few days before finding somewhere else, but ended up staying for a few months.

I had an absolutely amazing time. They are super kind and welcoming,… read more

Sara was amazing. She came for a few days and ended up staying a few months. She has only just left and we miss her already.

Sara is very bright and dynamic. She is a great conversationalist and instantly fitted in with my small family.

Sara performed numerous tasks - she painted, decorated, cleaned, cooked wonderful vegan meals, gardened,… read more

It was a delight to host Sara as part of our community for 6 weeks this year!
We all appreciated her keen intelligence, adaptability to any task, willingness to listen and great sense of humour. Above all, Sara's willingness to try new things and take an active role in community participation makes her a wonderful friend and companion whom we… read more

I had the pleasure of staying about a month and a half. It was an absolutely amazing experience. Maitri was super nice and came to the airport to pick me up. We stayed in town (Luganvill) for one night before taking the boat out to this place. Everyone was super welcoming and I immediately felt at home.

When I first arrived it was only Maitri,… read more

Sara is a very good Workawayer who we had the pleasure to host for a week earlier this year. She's pretty easy going and not difficult in any way. We were very satisfied with her work exchange. The work was painting which is boring but Sara got stuck into it and achieved a lot for just one week. Yeah we definitely recommend her.

I stayed at Garry's farm for a week, on my birthday. It was great to stay there. He showed me around the entire farm, event tho there wasn't much harvesting to do, as they had just done a big harvest before I came. He was a great host to have, and he always made sure I had what I needed. I spent most of the time helping to paint the house a new… read more

I had the pleasure to stay with Glenda for 3 weeks. She was kind and came and picked me up at the train station. I loved working with her, and I really enjoyed that she would work with me and not just give me a task and leave. The work we did at her Sunshine Coast property was mostly gardening and painting. We mostly worked in the morning, as that… read more

Sara joined a working bee / retreat at the place. She was friendly, fun, up for learning and forthcoming with feedback and suggestions. She learned quickly and performed her tasks well. An all round team player and a pleasure to host.

I had an absolutely amazing time staying with Dada. I had the pleasure of staying during a working bee, and we even ended up extending it form 2 weeks to 3. I loved that he focused on having yoga and meditation, and teaching us why it was important. I also loved that Dada is vegan and all the food was vegan, as a vegan myself and it can sometimes… read more

I had the pleasure of staying for 3 weeks with this lovely family😊 Everyone there is super nice, friendly and very welcoming. I really felt like a part of the family. I left only a few days a go and I miss them already. I had so much fun playing with the girls. Sometimes they didn’t agree on what to do, but using a timer and giving them each a… read more

I stayed here for two weeks and had a great time. The entire staff is super nice, and I really enjoyed that we mostly ate together, so it kind of felt like a little community. Everyone was also really nice and patient with my Spanish, as it isn’t the best. The work was great, mostly just cleaning one day and doing some tasks the other days. I… read more

I stayed with Mo and Angie for about 3 weeks and I had an amazing time. This was my first Workaway and it was amazing. Both Mo and Angie were super nice and helped me out a lot. They have both traveled a lot and gave me many great tips for my future travel plans. The work is great and all the animals were super nice, even tho the horses can be a… read more
