    Travelling

  • Description

    Hi everyone!

    I'm Mia, from London in the UK. I graduated from university in Leeds over a year ago, and have just finished working at a nursery.

    I have travelled Europe extensively, and fell in love with exploring the world from a very young age, as my parents took me travelling with them for a year when I was just 5 years old.

    Now, at 22, I want to explore my true passion of travelling the world alone. I want to experience new cultures, learn new languages, but also find a way to give back to the countries I am visiting. I am searching for true immersion and to make new connections with people all over the world.

    I will be travelling South and Central America for the foreseeable future (maybe over a year). I am keen to learn Spanish, I love music, reading, writing, dancing and especially cooking.

    I adore the natural world and have a deep appreciation for it. I have lived in a big city all my life and I am ready to leave it behind to explore the oceans, jungles and deserts of the world. I am also a huge animal lover and am vegetarian to reflect this!

  • More details about your skills

    Experience with children aged 0-6 years old (nursery - teaching, nappy changing, and more). I worked in nurseries at university and in London for over a year, and I am very good with young children especially. I have bartending and waitressing experience and would therefore be a great help in hostels/restaurants or to give advice about new things to bring in tourism or young people. I have 3 years of administration experience as I was a receptionist, so I could help with any admin or other paperwork! I could also support in other aspects including via email, phone etc. I have a degree in English Literature and have done tutoring so could help with teaching English. I am a good and passionate cook and can make a meal out of anything, so I could cook for you, your family or other guests! I also have a passion to learn and take instructions well - so I can and will do anything!

  • What else ...

    I am a massive football fan! I support Arsenal, a team in North London, so I love watching (and playing) a bit of football! I also love going on long walks and hikes and I am a very active person. I absolutely love music of all different genres and would love to learn an instrument! As I said, I'm vegetarian and a huge animal lover, so one of my biggest passions is learning more about how to care for animals. Although I am from a big city, I have spent many of my years in the countryside in the UK and in other countries across Europe, and I am so excited to spend more of my time outdoors as it is where I am truly happy. I also mentioned I love to cook - especially for other people, it's one of my favourite things to do!
