More details about your skills

I have recently finished my Bachelor of Biomedicine at university and am currently in my gap year with goals to study Medicine next year.

I have extensive experience with children; with 8 year of nannying/babysitting and 3 years as a swim teacher. I also have experience with pet sitting over the past 2 years. I have extensive first aid knowledge - regularly volunteering back home. I also worked in the emergency department in a hospital doing administration and registration work.

I am an exceptionally hard worker and will strive to complete the job the best that I can. I am efficient, thorough and determined. I am open to new experiences and am an optimistic person.

I have basic experiences with things such as gardening and maintenance work and eager to learn more.

In my spare time, I volunteer with St John Ambulance to teach 12-18 year olds first aid and leadership skills. I am also part of a Jazz band that meets every week - I play clarinet and piano. I recently have also joined a beginners adult gymnastic class and am thoroughly enjoying learning many new skills.

I worked at Juliet's farm for about 3 weeks in October and had a brilliant time! Juliet is incredibly kind and considerate with all the volunteers. I learnt so many things at Juliet's about horse care, from: mane pulling, shoe cleaning, horse baths, tack and untacking, etc. I had such a great time working and learning about the horses having come … read more

Izzy is a wonderfully warm positive and upbeat sort of young person. She's full of fun and energy, quick to read situations and pick up on what needs to be done even without being asked!!

Izzy came for a relatively short period to stay this autumn and dispite having only ridden occasionally on trail rides over the years she was literally up for … read more

A friend and I volunteered at Biokavina for a week in September and had a great time! We were very grateful to have been welcomed at very very short notice - thanks to Cara and Tom. The work we did at the sanctuary was varied, from: fixing a sink, painting walls, moving rocks, digging holes, feeding the rabbits etc. It is mostly physical work with … read more

I stayed at Mario's place for about a week in early June and had an amazing time! This was my first WorkAway experience and Mario and the other volunteers made me feel incredibly welcome! The food was always amazing and the accommodations basic and comfortable. Over the week, there was always at least one other volunteer which made things even … read more

If you want a reliable, friendly and hard-working volunteer, Izzy is the right person for you! Always smiling and ready to help and always a real source of positive energy. After a long time, she brought a spirit from the southern hemisphere to our center. Thank you Izzy, you are always welcome here, if you are ever in the vicinity we are looking … read more

I spent a week at the Scout Camp with Rok and the other volunteers. I had a great time! Rok was an amazing host; always making sure everyone is comfortable, fed and having fun. The work consisted of cleaning either the bathrooms (morning shift and a late night shift) or kitchen (breakfast, lunch and dinner) - the rest of the days were spent doing … read more
