Description
Hey there! :)

My name is Karina, a 24-year-old from Austria. I'm about to complete my bachelor's degree and decided to do some extended travel this summer. During a previous journey in 2017, I had the pleasure of experiencing Workaway while exploring Ireland. The connections I made with local hosts and the opportunity to immerse myself in different cultures left a lasting impression on me.
