Descripción

Hello!

I am a new member of workaway! I love to learn new skills, gaining new experiences and I love to meet new people from around the world who I would never normally cross paths!

I moved to Japan in January 2023 and I am currently learning Japanese in a language school until July and after that plan to travel and work throughout Japan.

I am from the UK, where I work as a nurse in the National Health Service and learnt Japanese in my spare time. I decided to use the Japanese working holiday visa to come to Japan so that I could better learn the language, live in a new country, travel and experience a different culture!

With my profession I am experienced working in a team within fast-paced environments and the responsibility of looking after people. During university I worked as a waitress, so I have experience working in hospitality. I also have experience in child care, and regularly volunteered for a Saturday school program for children with learning disabilities.

As far as my interests go, I love outdoor sports. I have been hiking since I was young and enjoy being in nature. I like swimming and running and currently training for the Tokyo half marathon in October. When I'm not doing one of these activities, I enjoy reading and craft activities like embroidery.

I am happy to answer any questions, and arrange video calls if you're interested in hosting me.
