Descripción

I'm a female, solo traveller. I love travelling, learning about new cultures and learning languages. I have previously lived in Thailand and France and have done Workaways in many countries including Italy, Nepal and New Zealand.
I'm a DELTA qualified English teacher who is taking a break to explore the world and appreciate living in the moment.
My dream is to be a polyglot; I can speak French and Italian and now I'd like to learn Spanish.
I'm very open-minded and enjoy working with people of all ages and from all backgrounds. I'm kind, conscientious and thoughtful.
I'm hoping to find families who I can live and share everyday life with, learn new languages with and immerse myself in the local culture with.

I have taught English as a foreign language for thirteen years, both in the UK and abroad, teaching all ages. I love to travel and learn about different cultures and languages. I like to visit one country at a time, immersing myself in daily life in order to truly learn about a culture and give me the best opportunity of practising the language. I am an Airbnb superhost, taking pride in providing guests with a warm welcome and a clean and comfortable space to stay in.
I love being outdoors and enjoy nature. I often help friends and family in their gardens when I visit them; unfortunately I live in a flat so don't have my own!

I don’t even have the words to highly recommend Joana. Joana is an amazing person. She’s not just responsible, organized, and tidy — it was truly a joy, a real pleasure, to share my home with her. We bonded so much. I loved being able to play with her. She’s the one who got us into playing board games. Thanks to her, we learned and enjoyed doing … read more

I stayed with Evelin for three weeks; I was lucky enough to be able to stay at her home and spend time with her and her family. It was a wonderful experience and everyone was so friendly and welcoming; I particularly enjoyed playing Monopoly and card games with Evelin and her daughter and chatting to her father. They have two gorgeous cats - I … read more

It was really lovely hosting Joanna on her first week in South America. I’m glad the quieter neighborhood helped her ease into Lima a bit. I truly appreciated her help around the house and in the garden, and it was nice chatting and sharing our travel stories during the week. Genesis definitely enjoyed the extra attention too!

I had a very enjoyable week staying with Marissa in Lima. The area she lives in is a quiet residential area, away from the busyness of the city centre and Miraflores. I swept the house every day and kept the garden tidy; it was a very relaxed experience which was perfect for my first week in South America. Marissa is a pleasure to spend time with … read more

I had a wonderful two weeks staying with Freddy here, Chincha. The highlight of my stay was working on a mural - a work of art which I didn't know I was capable of producing and a process which has given me so many new skills. I also helped with the animals every day and I already miss Lulu who is a very lovable dog. Freddy is a wonderful host who … read more

From the moment I arrived Patri, Javi and Nel welcomed me into their home and treated me as part of their family. They took me on excursions to visit nearby places (Gulliver's park in Valencia in particular was a lot of fun!) and I spent a lot of time playing with Nel who is very intelligent and already knows a lot of English. We played a lot of … read more

El tiempo que pasamos con Joanna se nos hizo muy corto. Se adaptó al trabajo de la huerta muy bien, realizando su trabajo de forma tranquila pero con mucha minuciosidad, es una persona muy perfeccionista. Creo que nadie ha limpiado tan bien las fresas como ella. También se mostró como una persona con iniciativa propia que realizaba a veces tareas … read more

Diligent is just one word to describe Joanna, but there are so many more—all of them positive.

Joanna was with us for 3 to 4 months, and we were truly sorry to see her go. She quickly adapted to our household and became a part of the family.

Her duties included cooking meals, doing laundry, gardening, keeping the house clean, and handling … read more

I had a wonderful two weeks with Michel and Lavinia and wish I could've stayed longer. They have a beautiful home in the middle of the countryside. I was made to feel so welcome and they cooked delicious food!

I spent a month with the Gorget family and had a great time! They are a very friendly, welcoming family who included me in everything.

Other jobs include cleaning, helping with the washing, ironing, shopping, … read more

Johanna stayed with us for a week and bit more. She helped us in our farm and house. She is very hard working and is up to do anything you will ask or needs to be done.
