Descripción
Hi! My name is Carmen and I am from the Netherlands. I just received my bachelor's degree in veterinary medicine and have to wait untill I can start the Master's degree. Waiting is not something I really enjoy so I decided to travel to Australia! I am very excited to see what is going on the other side of the world.
After finishing high school I also went traveling for a year and learned about Workaway only during the end of my travels. Nevertheless, I have had an awesome experience living off grid surrounded by animals.
This year, I would love to meet a lot of new people and work with animals in the Australian scenery. I am a hard-working and optimistic person, who likes to get the job done. Hobbies include dancing around, chatting and being outdoors.

Que habilidades tienes?
For the last 3 years, I have been studying veterinary medicine. This degree involves both theoretical and practical knowledge of all animals. Although I still have 3 years untill I can call myself a veterinarian, I love using all my knowledge to help animals.
I have had a job in the hospitality sector while studying. The job varied from organising very fancy dinners for 10 people, to large symposia for 500 people and everything in between. I learned a lot about people, food and service here.
Since the age of 6, I have been around horse stables daily. I have had my own horse with which I have been riding competitively as well as recreative. I mastered all skills around the horses, from riding and grooming to cleaning the stables. In addition, I do voluntary work with disabled people who want to do horseback riding.
Sporting has always been a big part of my life and I have done things such as rowing, swimming, boxing, cycling and many more. This taught me a good deal of teamwork, perseverance and responsibility.
When I not physically active, I like to cook or read a good book and I can take care of myself.

Wonderful Carmen and Maud; two beautiful women who both Brian and I felt so privileged to have stay with us. Not only were they willing to take on anything we asked if they could do, but it was their joyful open attitude every time, all the time, that blew us away. There wasn’t one moment we look back and have a bad memory; they brought… read more

My friend Maud and I stayed with Jen and Brian for a beautiful week. They are very caring and kind hosts who made us feel welcome immediately. We really felt at home in the area of Margaret River thanks to some good recommendations from Jen.
The food was delicious, healthy and most was organic. Jen even grows her own sprouts which we are dearly… read more

The time I have spend with Penny, Steve, Liz, Percy and Betsy was absolutely beautiful! I stayed for a couple of weeks and I have done things such as stacking wood, weeding, mowing, painting and other little jobs. This left plenty of time to explore the surroundings. There are very pretty (and a bit chilly) waterfalls nearby as well as the river… read more

If the world was full of Carmens there would be no need for a heaven- of any flavour. Carmen stayed three weeks with us and is a wonderful person- very personable but also very quietly capable and competent. She hoed into any hard physical work we asked of her with enthusiasm. We would love to kidnap her and keep her forever. Best wishes Carmen-… read more

What an amazing experience! I have spend two months in pino hochado and I wished I could have stayed longer. There was just never a dull moment with all the adorable animals and heartwarming humans.
Taking care of the dogs, horses, cats and pig has been a really rewarding job. They need cleaning, food and love everyday. In a place like this there… read more

Carmen is fantastic! An excellent volunteer who, aged only 18, we could rely on 100%. Carmen has so much common sense, is responsible and on top of this, such great fun! She is an excellent horse rider (and handler), and looked after our 10 horses and 40 dogs every day. With every job to do, Carmen carried it out efficiently and thoroughly. Carmen… read more
