Description

Hi! My name is Zeynep, I'm 22 years old, and one of my biggest joys in this world is exploring new places. I've never been able to sit still, always taking up jobs and schooling in different parts of the world to experience all that I can. I graduated a few months ago and immediately went on a three month backpacking excursion in Europe, and now I want to expand to other parts of the world.

I just completed my first workaway at a hostel on the Caribbean coast of Colombia about a month ago and had the best time of my life. Beyond this I also have years of volunteering and professional work experience. I love helping local communities and engaging with people from all over the world. I'm up for any task and am a very outgoing person willing to try anything. I look forward to connecting with you!

More details about your skills

I just graduated in business and have experience in the professional consulting and venture capital fields. I'm a very creative person and during my time at university I helped lead a small art club that encouraged students to express themselves through different mediums. I'm very into sustainability and have published two research papers on supply chain sustainability. I'm always looking to learn more and help people and the environment however I can.

I am originally from Turkey but have lived in the United States for most of my life, so I am native in and fully fluent in both Turkish and English. I've also been learning Spanish for the past few years and am at an Intermediate level. I'd love to help teach others my languages and cultures in exchange of bettering my Spanish!

I am a very active person, having played sports since high school. I have taken many different classes and frequent the gym, therefore I am good at instructing workouts, HIIT, yoga, and strength training. I also love the outdoors and trying many different activities, from cliff jumping to hiking to kayaking!

Finally, I love to cook. It has been one of my passions for as long as I can remember, and making a dish from every country in the world is something that is on my bucket list!
