  • Description

    Hi World! I'm Alba. I'm here to learn from travelling by hopefully getting to know some beautiful places and people!! I work hard and am always ready to pick up a new skill in order to help out on your projects.

    Though I'm young, I've travelled alone before and can fend for myself. I respect that this platform runs on a lot of trust, and I know that if you let me help you, I would be committed do so in any way I can.

    ps. I have both French and British passports!!

  • More details about your skills

    - Waitress in restaurants and at functions for a silver service catering company, experience serving customers, setting/clearing tables and a little bartending

    - Kitchen porter, experience with prep, cleaning kitchens and washing all dishes

    These jobs have often meant long hours and being proactive - I can work hard and am ready to be on my feet doing physical tasks for long periods of time.

    - Playworker at an after-school club, looking after children aged 4-11 (which I loved!) so experience being responsible for large groups of kids

    This was at an international school, many of the children's first language was not English, and part of my role was to build their confidence speaking it.

    - I have volunteered as a steward in several festivals (including on overnight shifts) and had a great time helping out with the smooth running of the event and meeting new people :)

    I love to draw - I paint on my walls a lot - and generally getting involved with any creative projects. I could also help with computers and social media, both of which I use frequently.

    Childcare, catering/hospitality work, gardening, art projects - I'm happy to help with anything. And if I don't have previous experience with what you need doing, I'm a fast learner and determined to make myself useful, so will happily learn new skills in order to be useful to you :)

    19

  • What else ...

    I love to read, draw, paint... I'm going on to study Anthropology next year, ready to discuss your sociological theories ;)

    Other than that, I love being in nature - I've climbed for several years but unfortunately only indoors up until now, would love to get outside on some real rock though

    I am more than happy to stay in for quiet evenings, but I also like to go out and dance/listen to music when there's the chance.
