Descripción

Hello there, I’m an active person who likes being outdoors, visiting new places, and making friends along the way. Hard working, reliable, honest, energetic, enterprising, tidy, conscientious and organised. I like keeping busy and don’t sit still. I am passionate about wildlife, nature conservation, and the environment. When at home I volunteer for a local wildlife charity helping restore heathland by clearing scrub, also do weekly checks on a small herd of Belted Galloway cattle, and feed a cat while its owner is away. I like hiking, especially mountains, sailing, and travelling with others to new places. I recently worked on a project in Southern Africa clearing invasive plants.
I live Surrey, England, but also lived near Durban, South Africa as a child. In the European winter I try to travel to warmer places, where I can make a difference. I am a non smoker, no drugs, but I do enjoy the occasional beer at the end of a hard week!

I stayed nearly a month. I was made to feel welcome and was fortunate as power had just been restored from a neighbour when I arrived. The next day two lovely Norwegians helped replace the water pipes, so we could fill the tanks and also fill the pool! I’ve used a top loading machine, so washed lots volunteer and guest sheets and host laundry. I … read more

Jenny brought an incredible depth of knowledge about plants, wildlife, and ecology to our project. She is observant, thoughtful, and highly detail-oriented — qualities that made her a tremendous asset to our team.

Despite her small stature, she is remarkably capable and resilient. She approached every task with care and precision, especially … read more

It was such a pleasure to host Jenny!

Apologies for the late feedback, I volunteered here in March for a month. I enjoy being outdoors so appreciated the chance to work alongside local people from the Expanded Public Works Programme (EPWP) clearing invasive pom-pom weeds along the river, and learned some Zulu too. Also dusted and cleaned areas of the hotel and conference centre with … read more

I was there 3 weeks. Feeding cat Dobby and dog Capu. I washed their bowls and fed them at 7:45am, and cleaned cat tray. The cat is so friendly and playful, I will miss her very much. Capu enjoyed his afternoon walks before evening feed at 5pm.
I also did sand papering, painting, gardening, weeding, watering plants. Also created a compost heap and … read more

Jenny was just awesome, she was so helpful, polite, and so pet lover, Dubby and Capu were so please with Jenny so we. She did a lot of duties, roos sealing painting, a door and always she was so proactive, gave us a lot of ideas and plans. We wish she can come back some day but most likely we wish her the best!!!!

During the week I was at Chaos Oasis I helped prepare for the imminent arrival of important visitors. With Alisa, two other WorkAwayers, and a group re-roofing a bungalow, we became a team. After 7am breakfast, some worked on roofing, or getting hospitality areas ready, dusting, sweeping, repainting… also gardening or making compost.
Midday meal … read more

Apologies for the late feedback. While travel outside the UK was restricted due to Covid lockdown, I was fortunate to spend my first WorkAway placement in beautiful countryside. I was there for a month in early spring, and it was good to meet WorkAwayers from other countries. Tasks were well planned, and I worked independently mainly cleaning … read more
