Descripción
Hello!
I'm a very easy going and friendly person living in the U.K.
I am a career changer from a fashion designer to gardener having spent the last four years formally training in various gardens including Audley End in Essex, a small private estate in South Gloucestershire and RHS Wisley as one of their diploma students.
I'm happy to get stuck into any task no matter how small or big, varied or repetitive and always have a positive attitude (despite our wet climate!).
I grew up in rural England and love the countryside, but spent five years in London and a year travelling Australia, so am open to meeting different people and new experiences.
I grew up in a large bustling family and am just as happy surrounded by people as I am spending time by myself. In my spare time I love running, hiking, exploring new places, baking, going to museums and galleries, drawing and reading.
I am looking for opportunities where I can get really stuck into the work, meet some new people and use the horticultural knowledge and physical skills I have recently gained.

Que habilidades tienes?
I love baking and cooking, I make a great brownie! I grew up in a large family so am happy babysitting and looking after children. I studied fashion design so am good creatively, I can sew and draw and help with any creative project. I am currently retraining as a gardener (I’ve been volunteering at the Melbourne international flower show and the botanic gardens) so am keen to help out in the garden too. My wider family are all farmers so am comfortable in a farm environment and can get stuck in with farm life. I've also had experience working as a cleaner in a couple of hotels so am happy to help around the house

Algo más...
Whilst I love all aspect of gardening, I'm particularly interested in historic gardens and productive growing. One day I would love to work in a walled kitchen garden growing plenty of veg and cut flowers.

I had a really brilliant week with Robyn and Roger in Bilgola Plateau. They were both very friendly, welcoming and instantly made me feel at ease in their home. Their dog is very sweet too! I had a very comfortable bedroom with sea 'glimpses' and a private bathroom as well.
I spent a few hours each day gardening: weeding, pruning shrubs and… read more

Felicity stayed with us for a week and it was a pleasure to have her with us. She worked hard in our garden everyday and took advantage of the beaches in her time off. She is easy going, honest and reliable. We shared stories and meals and experienced exactly what the Workaway exchange has to offer. We would have her back anytime.

Felicity was with us for just over a week and she was fantastic. She is a hard worker who gets genuine enjoyment from finishing a job and she is not afraid to tackle work that maybe new to her. She is friendly and very easy to get along with. We had a great time over the week she was here and we got a lot done. We would gladly welcome her back to… read more

I spent just over a week with Diana and Rob and I had such a great time. They are both very friendly, easy going people and instantly made me feel welcome and at home.
The work we did was varied and nothing was too difficult: weeding the veggie garden, mulching orange trees, pruning pear trees, painting cupboards etc.
I feel like I gained a few… read more

I had such a brilliant time with Lyle, Lili and their children. I felt very lucky to have stayed with them for my first workaway experience. They were very welcoming and made me feel at home instantly. The work was varied, digging holes for a kangaroo proof fence (I saw more kangaroos in 2 weeks than I'll probably see in my entire life!) grading… read more
