Description
Hi, my name is Megan! I am a recent college graduate and looking to expand my life experiences before I start my full-time job in July. I have several years of full-time nannying experience during the summers and am currently an English tutor for an official tutoring site, so I have experience with childcare and teaching English and would love to come for a longer-term stay with a family to immerse myself in the culture!

I am a huge adventurer and love the outdoors, I once hiked 54 miles straight as part of my college's 50 challenge. I'm planning to hike the El Camino in May, and would love to have a workaway experience in Spain before then to learn more about the culture! When I'm not at school or adventuring outdoors I love spending time with my family and friends, but I'm excited to embark on a solo journey and meet new people in new places! I'm passionate about music, I have over 100 playlists on Spotify and love to sing and play the guitar in my free time. I am a hard worker and a huge self-motivator, when I commit to something I give it 100%. I'm flexible and can take on any project and can't wait to explore other parts of the world!

More details about your skills
I have grown up taking care of children, babysitting from when I was 12 and spending several summers as a full-time nanny. I am also currently an English tutor for an online tutoring platform so I have extensive experience teaching languages as well. I have experience with research in the school setting, but have also spent time working various jobs ranging from being a barista to working at a gym so I am very flexible when it comes to types of jobs and I'm a quick learner. I have tutoring experience with both young kids and adults so am well-versed in the teaching/childcare arena. I am artistic and would be able to help with home improvement type jobs and have experience helping my dad with his garden. I'm open to anything!

I cannot say enough great things about this family! If you can stay with Dori, Victor, Lis, y Kai I highly recommend it. From the moment I arrived they treated me like family and during my 10 day stay I truly felt like a part of their family. The hours are very fair and come with lots of down time and delicious home-cooked meals by Victor and… read more

Heidi and John were incredible hosts and are pros at creating the most welcoming, lovely experience for workawayers! I stayed for 1 week with two other workawayers and not only had an amazing experience with them but was also able to enjoy the company of other workawayers as well! The work was very doable and reasonable hours, then the afternoons… read more

Megan was a bundle of enthusiasm and energy leaping in to any task that was required. She worked really well with the two other volunteers here at the time and together we achieved a great deal. In the down time here, she loved the nature, star gazing and the simple things in life like jig saws and conversation. She was a pleasure to host and if… read more

Had a great time at Doug's colorful house in Atherton! The work balance was great with a reasonable amount of work in the mornings with plenty of time in the afternoons for various explorations, and Doug was great about showing me the sights of the Tablelands. We saw Kangaroos, went to a waterfall, and saw a really old tall Fig tree! He shared… read more

When the Angel left, Megan came right along. She got right into work mode and worked till there was nothing left to do. Right strong for a left hander...helped me lift left and right, around the beachouse and cut through weeds like a power cultivator! Pre season cyclone trim all done right too and a new tableau as well. When work was done, It was… read more
