  • Description

    I have had my 3 covid booster vaccines!

    Hi there! My name is Katie and I am an English student studying Zoology in the Uk. I am currently on my 1 year study abroad I’m Japan. I’m studying Japanese and want to make most of my time here!

    I have been using Workaway since 2019 and have had Workaway experiences in Japan and Spain.

    I have travelled independently for years and have wide variety of work experience.

    I love new cultures and want to learn many languages. I’m very enthusiastic to meet new people as I think it’s important in life to have connections across the world.

    I've been to Japan, France, Brazil, Germany, USA and Spain. I’ve been on several Rotary Camps so I’ve interacted with many people of different ethnicities and cultures.

    I'm enthusiastic about my art and animals in particular.
