My next destination:
New Zealand - from Jun 2024 View allDescription
Hello! I’m Yuko from Japan. I’m 32 years old.
I have worked for about 9 years at a company that develops and manufactures non-polluting machines and performs construction using them. The company has a track record of construction work in Japan and other countries around the world.
I have been interested in foreign countries since I was a student. Finally, I decided to go to New Zealand on a working holiday visa.
I really enjoy learning and experiencing new things because it makes me grow and expand my horizons. That’s why, I decided to participate in Workaway.
I love communicating in English. One of my goals is to be able to speak like a native speaker, so I'm still learning hard. I would like to know the country, traditions and its people.
When I was a student, I did baton twirling and Japanese archery. I like traveling, eating, cooking, exercising, driving, listening to music, animals, plants, flowers and coffee. I would like to expand my hobbies further through various experiences.
I’m a responsible and hardworking person. I will do my best to support you. I would be glad to work in your place.
Thank you.Interests
