Description

Hi! My name is Lexi, I’m 27 and originally from the U.S.

In 2024, I walked the Camino de Santiago, a 500 mile pilgrimage from France to the coast of Spain. It was truly a life-changing experience that challenged me, deepened my relationship with myself, and helped me get clear about the kind of life I want to be living. After completing the journey, it sparked my desire to continue learning, growing, and connecting with others through meaningful travel. It was actually through a very special Camino friendship that I learned about Workaway.

Prior to that adventure, I earned my bachelor’s degree in 2022 and have spent most of my twenties working in childcare, animal care, education, and behavioral health services. I’m passionate about people, connection, and health/personal growth, but I also know I still have more I want to explore before choosing a long-term path.

Even though I’m new to Workaway, I’ve done a lot of hands-on, people-centered work that I feel has prepared me well for a variety of situations. I’m naturally curious, open-minded, adaptable and easygoing. I value clear and honest communication and I enjoy collaborating just as much as I appreciate quiet solo time. I try to show up with empathy, creativity, and a willingness to learn.

In my free time I love being active outdoors whether that’s running, hiking, or playing soccer. I practice yoga and journaling regularly and I’m very passionate about healthy eating and cooking. I’ve also been learning to sew for the past few months and love to work on creative projects in a variety of mediums. I love games, DIY projects, and meaningful conversations about life and growth. I’m also interested in sustainability, permaculture, and hands-on learning in natural environments.

I'm striving to create a balanced and intentional life filled with curiosity, connection, and contribution. I'm hoping that through Workaway, I can exchange skills and stories with people around the world, gain new perspectives, and continue to grow into the best version of myself while hopefully making a positive impact on the people I meet.

Thanks for reading :)

More details about your skills

I speak English and know basic beginner Spanish. I recently worked as a stewardess on a 105m private yacht and gained experience in high-level service, teamwork, and adaptability in fast-paced environments.

I’m no stranger to physical work and take pride in staying active and hands-on. Growing up, I played almost every sport and still love moving my body, whether hiking, helping with outdoor projects, or lending a hand wherever needed.

I’m patient and calm around children and I enjoy supporting them in both playful and educational settings. I’m also very creative and love working on projects; I’ve upcycled furniture and found clever ways to reuse secondhand materials. I’ve always had a strong connection to animals and feel especially comfortable with large dogs, having grown up with 2 German Shepherds.

On top of that, I’m tech-savvy, highly organized, and genuinely love finding systems that make life easier. I’m a quick learner and thrive when I’m given new challenges to take on, especially in environments that value care, nature, and community.
