Description

Hello! Moderately experienced workaway-er here. I've done six (two week or more) workaways over the last five years and these are definitely some of my dearest travel experiences. People in my life have described my more positive traits as thoughtful, organised, and open-minded. I particularly enjoy sweeping, animal care, dirty work, and when hosts over-communicate or are quite explicit with their expectations. I am currently a postgraduate student in the UK.

Some keywords about my interests: collective intelligence; social sciences; acroyoga; effective altruism; Chinese food; podcasts; bluegrass; 80s-00s hip hop; classic rock; existential risk

I'd love to have a video call!
