Description

Hello there,

I’m Cosmi—though you can also call me Cosmina. I’m originally from Romania, but I spent almost ten years living in the Czech Republic. I first moved there in my mid-20s through an Erasmus exchange, and what was meant to be a short stay ended up becoming a big part of my life.

I’ve been using Workaway on and off since 2020. I keep coming back because each experience has taught me something new and meaningful. After a break of about a year and a half—during which I explored life back in Romania while staying connected to my ties in Czechia—I’m excited to return to Workaway. I feel ready to explore again, meet new people, and keep learning about myself along the way.

A bit about me: I’m curious, flexible, a bit anxious and sometimes funny. I try to keep a healthy balance in life. I do Pilates every day, enjoy hiking (a habit I picked up in Czechia, which has amazing trails), and I love reading and trying different kinds of meditation. Recently, while living in Romania, I also volunteered at a local cat shelter—staying involved and giving back is something I care about.

My studies were in Environmental Engineering, and I also have a Master’s in Journalism. But my career took a different path after I chose to stay in Czechia. That decision sparked my interest in topics like community, belonging, and cultural identity. I even contributed to some local expat publications. These days, I think of belonging as something you build—through nature, through meaningful connections, and by staying true to yourself. That’s the kind of experience I’m looking for through Workaway.

Quelles sont vos compétences ?

One of my most meaningful long-term volunteering experiences was through the European Voluntary Service (EVS) in Iceland. There, I was responsible for implementing environmental policies in three hostels and a campsite. It gave me hands-on experience with waste sorting and eco-management—topics I had already explored during my Environmental studies.

I’ve also volunteered in permaculture settings, helping with tasks like setting up irrigation systems, weeding, planting and harvesting. I have experience cooking large meals for groups and enjoy contributing to shared meals and communal living. I've also experience managing a campsite through Workaway.

Over the years, I’ve supported various local organizations alongside my regular job. My tasks have ranged from working in a café for people with physical disabilities to stone stacking, fence building, paving with stones, gardening, compost maintenance, collecting firewood, and even animal care.
