Description

We met in September 2020, during our first workaway experience. Since then, we have been involved in sustainability and eco-construction projects, large communities and social work and looking after animals in Spain. We have loved being able to learn about the language and rich Spanish culture, and we are now turning our sights to South America!

Hi, my name is Kate. I'm 22 and have challenged myself to travel around Spain until I'm fluent in Spanish, meeting some wonderful people and learning more about Spanish culture along the way. I'm friendly and outgoing, I love to meet new people and learn new skills. I'm a hard worker and a fast learner, with experience ranging from hospitality and healthcare to DIY and working with animals. I can help with building, gardening, cooking, cleaning etc. I will put in 100%. Please ask me any questions you may have, I look forward to hearing from you!

I'm Lorenzo, I love having deep conversations and sharing thoughts and experiences with people from all over the world. Really into learning new languages and cultures and, comes by itself, travelling
Really looking forward to improving my Spanish. I do like working in the nature, been doing that for 3 months now and I'm loving it!
