  • Description

    Hello, my name is Nathan. I am a college student studying nursing/ medicine. I'm currently taking a gap year because I want to enjoy life and travel while I am still young. I was vice president of my university's sustainability/ gardening club and I have previously studied abroad in Osaka, Japan. Something that motivated me to travel was that it brought me happiness during a stressful time in my life. It allowed me to learn how to take care of myself without depending on others. I also enjoy photography as a hobby and I own a fish tank.

    Hi I'm Heather! After graduating from studying law in the UK this summer, I am taking a gap year to travel the world and experience everything it has to offer. During university, I studied abroad in Lyon, France and Osaka, Japan which ignited my love of travel. I love learning things in the places I travel to, such as taking French lessons, or learning to cook Japanese cuisine. I was interested in Workaway as an opportunity to learn new skills and share impactful experiences with new and interesting people.
