Description
Kia ora (hello in Te Reo Māori), I’m Tegan from New Zealand and I’m a nature loving, adventure seeking, kind hearted person travelling around Central and South America. I am very excited to join WorkAway and connect with incredible people in this special place. I am deeply motivated by creating meaningful friendships and learning a new culture. I’m on the journey of learning Spanish and aiming to travel as sustainably as I can. I’m very passionate about protecting our Earth and connecting with likeminded people. I love to challenge myself and learn new skills! Can’t wait to see where this adventure takes me.
