Description
Hello!
I’m Marina (Nina), a young and curious woman travelling to Australia for the first time, from the Canary Islands (Spain) where I grew up. I’m half British and half Brazilian, and speak English, Spanish and Portuguese fluently and intermediate Italian.
I’ll be travelling to Australia on my first of many experiences with Workaway, with hopes of travelling around the continent,and wherever the wind blows me! I’m really looking forward to experiencing new things, meeting new people, seeing new places and learning and helping people/the planet as much as I can along the way.
I’m a very responsible, independent and hardworking person who can adapt easily and learn quickly. I’m free spirited, sensitive and compassionate and put my all into everything I do. Always happy to help people however needed, and don’t mind getting my hands dirty! I’ve been vegan for years, so if I have vegan food options I’m happy :)
I have experience and skills in many different areas, from NGOs, gardening to teaching and marketing, and love learning new things. I am very interested in gaining more knowledge and working in sustainability.Interests
