    Hi all! I am just starting out my Workaway journey at the beginning of 2025. I left my old life back in the UK after doing various jobs in IT, accounting, admin, sales etc and want to explore other cultures and get to experience life on the road and elsewhere and not stuck on a computer screen any longer.

    I want to align my way of living with my core values of creating a wholesome and natural envirnoment and to live a more holisitic experience. I am very excited to learn about yoga and mediation, to get to the depths of alternative ways of lviing and eco suatainability and to dig deeper into permaculture and ways of integrating a more offline and connected experience between people and nature and creating a vibrant and flourishing way of life.

    I am deeply interested in exploring other cultures and getting to know people, as community is a big part of what I am about and beleive in helping others as much as possible. I am open to all kinds of tasks, from mundane cleaning and clearing up and sweeping insde and out, to cooking and helping in the garden or in the vineyard or on the farm or in a hostel. Anywhere that needs some help and is looking for someone like me (who is interested in people and nature) can find me waiting to jump up and be there ready to pitch in.

    I am eager to join whoever I can wherever I can and look forward to seeind you all on my adventures :)
