Hi there!

I am looking to immerse myself in new cultures, learning about new foods, languages, and practices. I love exercising, whether that be going for walks, hikes, snowboarding, or weightlifting, and I am more than happy to help out with physical work.

I am a Political Science graduate, and I also studied History and Psychology. I am currently working remotely in the financial sector. Though my work schedule is flexible, I am looking for a placement where I can work online for 3 hours consecutively on Monday-Friday.

Coming from a big city (Toronto!!) I am looking for a change in pace from the hustle and bustle of city life. I know Workaway is no easy work, so am ready to get my hands dirty! I absolutely love the outdoors, and am mesmerized by lakes and mountains.

I grew up travelling with my Mum, so have had the opportunity to visit many really cool destinations like Iceland, Morocco, Spain, Italy, and Ireland, among others. I would love to share travel stories or hear about your recommendations!

I am open to any type of work, whether it be childcare, animal help, or physical labour.

Que habilidades tienes?

I am an incredibly quick learner. Once I am shown how to do something once, I can complete the task well by myself. I pride myself on my work ethic. I am a big believer in communication, respect, and having an open mind. I believe this allows me to be open to new opportunities, and I am always expanding my skillset. I am comfortable taking initiative within the constraints that have been set.

ANIMALS: I have stayed on many horse ranches, and have tended to horses (grooming, feeding, etc.). I have previously taken English horseback riding lessons and have done trail rides, though I have not in recent years. I believe I can pick it up again quickly with a little support. I have lived my whole life with cats and dogs in the house, so am very familiar with their mannerisms, lifestyles, and needs. Though I haven't had many other opportunities to work in farm-type settings, I adore animals. I am more than happy to provide a caring environment and a good routine for some lovely animals.

LABOUR: I love to move my body, and am very happy to do physical labour! I enjoy fruit picking and have tended to a small vegetable patch, and would love to expand my knowledge. I have also completed some general maintenance around the house, so would be comfortable helping out in this capacity as well.

CHILDCARE: I have previously worked as a swim instructor, lifeguard, camp counsellor, babysitter, and I have two younger brothers myself so I adore working with children. I have worked with many children, from infants to teens, some with physical and developmental disabilities. I believe I am a fantastic child-minder, and am more than happy to help with child care around the house or on excursions around the area.

SWIMMING: I am a trained swim instructor, pool supervisor, and lifeguard, and have training in first aid, though my qualifications expired during COVID-19. I would be more than happy to provide swimming lessons or act as adult supervision around water.

CLEANING: I have lived in communal settings as well as lived alone, so I understand the qualms of cleaning. I thoroughly enjoy deep cleaning, decluttering, and organization.

COOKING: I love to cook, and would be happy to provide 3 meals a day in the house. I cook meals from many different cultures, from Italian to Japanese. My meals tend to be formed of a grain/carb base, lots of veggies or fruit, and a good source of protein with some sauce and lots of seasoning. I do not eat red meat or pork, so do not cook these. Most of my meals are vegetarian but I am open to cooking fish, chicken, and turkey.

ART/MUSIC: I am a terrible artist but absolutely love participating in it, whether it be painting, sculpting, singing, knitting, etc.! I previously took piano lessons but have not played in years, so would love to fiddle around on a piano if available.

CULTURE: I would love to learn about your cultures, including the history of the region, and visit local landmarks. As a Canadian, I am very open to new cultures, and would love to discuss Canadian life! In my free time, I would love to travel to nearby towns, museums, performances, or restaurants, and chat with the locals.
