Descripción
After 5 years of working in the corporate world in Canada, I decided to quit my job, give up my apartment, get rid of all my belongings so I can embrace a nomadic lifestyle to see and experience as much of this beautiful world as I can. I started my journey in May 2019 and have been travelling and volunteering since then.
I believe in trying new things, and finding innovative ways to overcome challenges. I love travelling to new places and I especially love being around nature. I am an outdoors enthusiast and love hiking. I also love animals and wildlife. I am a hard worker who is very friendly and easy to get along with.
I was born in South India, and grew up in Canada. I studied Finance in university and worked for a large company for 5 years, but realized that the 9-5 office life wasn't really for me. I loved to travel but it was usually very brief (2 - 3 weeks each year). I didn't like that style of travel - it was about checking boxes and going to all the popular tourist spots. I wanted to change my approach and actually get to know the country, its people and its culture by doing extended stays and volunteering in each country.
I always do my best at any task that I am given and I love learning new skills.
I have done 6 workaways so far:
1) Helping with gardening and maintenance in Bellinzona, Switzerland (5 weeks)
2) Dogsitting 3 huskies in Biel, Switzerland (5 weeks)
3) Teaching English in a small Bavarian town (6 weeks)
4) Helping in an organic farm in Gran Cararia, Spain (1 week)
5) Helping with a finca/garden project half way up a volcano in Tenerife, Spain (4 weeks)
6) Looking after 43 huskies and assisting with tourists in the Arctic Circle in Finland (4 weeks)Intereses
