  • Description

    Hello hosts :) hello new new


    How I can help : I'm interested in helping out with permaculture/gardening/farming/ taking care of dogs + cats/learning how to care for farm animals . I have knowledge of gardening/plant care/pruning and can pick up new tasks/ helping with farming/animals quickly (show me how and I'll learn quickly!) Not afraid of the dirt and getting messy

    Yika:
    -Born and raised in Hong Kong (English is my first language, fluent in Mandarin and Cantonese, learning Korean)
    -Enjoys: gardening/plant care, floral arrangement, travelling, dancing, hiking, yoga, swimming/being in nature, playing and caring for dogs, art, videography for fun (editing videos for instagram)

    ---

    Exchange: We'd love to share dinners and conversations together/hiking, maybe a casual drink or board games if you're interested! Would love a cultural exchange (we can share Hong Kong customs with you). We can cook some simple asian meals/western meals.

    Helping: It would be good if there are a variety of tasks/not everyday the same so there will be more exchange/experiences/learning opportunities
