Description

Hi!
My name is Laila and I am currently taking a gap year to explore the world and meet new people! I am French/American and I have lived in different countries where my family has hosted many workaways from all over the world - which is what inspired me to start this journey

A little about myself, I love music, movies, reading and anything art or diy related (such as sewing, knitting, up-cycling, painting etc...). I am a very creative person and I love trying new things. I love exploring nature, biking, hiking and I ride horses!
I love spending time with kids, I have a younger sister and grew up babysitting the children in my neighborhood as well as volunteering with young children in Guatemala. I also love animals, I grew up surrounded by chickens, dogs, cats and horses and I love caring for them!

I am very passionate about healthy/organic food and enjoy baking and trying new recipes when I have time! I also love languages (I speak three but am always curious to learn more).
I consider myself a mature, responsible, independent and organized person. I’m open-minded, curious and look forward meeting new people, experiencing new cultures and learning!

More details about your skills

I speak fluent French and English and Spanish relatively well.
Since I am a super creative person, I love diy and manual projects. I worked in an Art gallery (renovating the space) for some time and it helped me realize that I'm interested in learning more about home renovations, interior design etc..
I love baking and I am more than happy to help in the kitchen and improve my cooking skills, as well as help with general maintenance around the house.
I enjoy the outdoors, and can take care of most pets and animals :)
I'm also very responsible, trustworthy and reliable. I like organising, planning and managing time in the best way possible.
I am great with children- I have worked multiple summer jobs as a camp counselor and I love spending time with them :) I am also currently studying to obtain my TEFL teaching qualification so I am happy to teach as well
