Descripción
Hi! I'm Cora from Canada (originally Saskatoon although I currently live in Victoria).

I love to travel and be physically active - particularly (rather mediocre) tennis, trail running, and ballet. I have a background in business/finance and work in the organic/better-for-you food sector. I grew up playing classical piano and taking art and dance lessons so I have a bit of an artistic side as well.

My first experience with Workaway was when I quit my first job to walk the Camino de Santiago in Spain and spent the rest of the year with lovely Workaway hosts in a variety of settings in Sri Lanka, China, and Taiwan. Having mellowed since those first Workaways many years' ago and recently moved to Vancouver Island, I am interested in learning about and contributing to eco-focused farms/gardens on the island. I would be looking to take 1-2 weeks off work to be a workawayer. My favourite type of work involves being outside in the sunshine, but am open to a variety of physical work (and any side projects if I can be helpful from an accounting/finance perspective!)

Having lived with roommates/in group settings all my life, I am very conscientious to others' needs and very easy to get along with. I look forward to getting to know you better!

I had a wonderful stay in Yilan and owe so much of that to the warmth and openness of the farmers that I worked for - Nick, Tina, Peter, Mavis, Yihan, and Fengqi. The setting is right close to mountains and rivers and Nick provides bikes for the volunteers to explore it all. The work can be dirty and a bit rough but that was just because you were… read more

I really enjoyed my time here, felt I really got close to the team, the field centre, and the larger sustainability message. I recognize, however, that the experience may not be for everyone as it is a bit unstructured and is was less like a workaway experience and more like an immersive cultural/work family experience - essentially you are asked… read more

Helped here for about two weeks in total and had a wonderful stay! Everything is very well run and structured so you know exactly when you work and what's expected of you. Everyone I worked with was so warm and friendly and the hostel itself is so artfully and thoughtfully decorated - definitely one of the best in all my travels. Hot tip: the… read more

I became such a part of the home with Kula and Shan by the end that leaving was harder than I thought it would be. When I was sick, they took care of me as if I were family. I felt so much love and care in the short ten days that I was there. I hope one day to return.

This is definitely more of a home stay than a workaway experience as the work… read more
