Description
Hello! My name is Kate. I am currently back in the uk, after traveling in New Zealand. Prior to that I was studying my undergrad degree and working on a farm in the USA.
I have traveled for a lot of my life -- I was born in South Africa but moved to England as an early teen before going to college in the United States. I am hoping to work with animals and spend a lot of time in the beautiful outdoors, as well as see a new part of the world and see how others live.
I am taking a year out from school to figure out what being of service means to me/where I feel like I could fit in and contribute to the world. Helping others, learning a lot, and having a laugh are all things that bring me joy!

She completed the tasks independently with attention to detail.
We had some really good laughs while she was here. Her and my toddler son had so much fun together as well. She is a beautiful person.
It is so nice to have her around. She is very humble and easy going.
All the best for your adventures Kate!
