Hi everyone :)
Lovely to meet you, I'm Lisa from Australia and I'm excited to have the opportunity to meet and experience life with all of you.
I joined Workaway with the hope that I can utilise my current skills and engage in a positive cultural exchange. If I've contacted you it's likely because I think we can both mutually learn and benefit from one another.
In Australia I work in the education field, having ~5 years experience in a secondary classroom and ~3 in early years/ primary education. I enjoy engaging with young people and sharing new skills. Additionally I have grown up on a farm, around many different animals and so am comfortable engaging in various animal centred and property maintenance tasks. I love being outdoors and exploring new places.
I am an avid traveller. In 2023 I spent most of the year backpacking through Africa and Europe, and while this was fantastic I did miss the sense of community and accomplishment you get from being in one place for a while. I would love to experience slow life with you while having the opportunity to further my skills and experience a different way of living.
I'm new to Workaway, so no reviews yet, but I do have some on my Cochsurfing account: https://www.couchsurfing.com/people/lisa-gillbee?action=show&controller=user_profiles
Please get in touch if you have any questions, I'm always willing to have a chat or video call.
