Description
Hello:)
My name is Irina.
I am a friendly, sociable, adaptable, and hardworking person. I love to travel, but I want to experience the cultures of a place and want to work and be of service as well. I enjoy being part of a community and like to work hard and keep busy. I can work well independently, but I can also work well with a team.
I love languages, food, music, singing, and learning about new cultures. I also love nature and animals. I have a passion for traditional music and songs!
I very much enjoy conversations with people and love hearing different cultural perspectives. I believe in the journey, rather than the end and I try to take life as it comes and accept people as they are. I am honest and direct, but also polite and diplomatic. I try not to take life too seriously in general, but know when it is time to work hard and am not afraid of hard work.
I have 14 years of experience working on a different farm through WWOOF/HELPX and I am open to learning new things.
Curently live and work on a farm in La Palma, one of the seven Canary island.
