Description

What motivates me the most is building a life that has meaning. I love learning new skills, meeting people from different cultures, and stepping outside my comfort zone. I believe the best experiences come from sharing knowledge, helping others, and being part of a community.

Movement is also an important part of my life because it helps me stay physically and mentally balanced. I enjoy staying active, working as part of a team, and taking on practical challenges. I’m not afraid of hard work, and I always try to bring positive energy, reliability, organization and a willingness to learn.

The sea is where I feel most at home. My dream is to travel the world slowly, eventually living on a sailboat or in a camper van, discovering different cultures and ways of life. In October 2023 I had the chance to do some volunteer work with children’s in the Caribbeans and it helped me understand how much I love being around the energy of children and being part of their childhood and part of their upbringing. I hope to find more experiences like that one and to continue supporting local communities and creating opportunities for children through education, sport, and other meaningful activities.

As I complete my international yoga teaching certification, I have learned how to be in the present moment, and approach life with curiosity, gratitude, and kindness. I look forward to teaching yoga and sharing my knowledge with others.

Quelles sont vos compétences ?

I have several years of experience in hospitality, where I worked in restaurants, events, and catering, including large-scale events with thousands of guests. I am also a qualified pastry chef and have a passion for baking and cooking. This field taught me how to stay organised under pressure, communicate effectively, solve problems quickly, learn about food presentation, kitchen organization and how to work efficiently as part of a team.

With a passion for CrossFit I decided to pursue a certification as a L1 CrossFit coach. I enjoy encouraging people to move, stay active, and feel better in both body and mind. If hosts are interested, I’d be happy to help with fitness sessions, mobility work, or beginner-friendly yoga classes. We only have one body in this life time, it is our sacred temple.

I also worked in a nursing home for two years, where I learned the importance of patience, empathy, responsibility, and paying attention to people’s individual needs.

I’m practical, adaptable, and learn quickly. I’m happy to help with cleaning, housekeeping, gardening, painting, organising spaces, pet care, and general maintenance tasks. I love animals and always enjoy looking after them.

Above all, I bring enthusiasm, a strong work ethic, curiosity, and a genuine willingness to learn. I believe every new experience is an opportunity to grow, contribute, and create meaningful connections.

Laissé par l'hôte (Animal and child friendly ...) pour le workawayer ()

Was chatty and nice and easy get on with but suddenly left without a goodbye or even letting me no did text her and ask was she ok and she said she was sick and had to leave and that was it so maybe she didn’t like us or our place or whatever seemed fine for two weeks but I wish her well on her future adventures

Laissé par le workawayer () pour l'hôte (Animal and child friendly ...)

I stayed with this host for a short Workaway placement in Ireland. The family was kind and friendly, and they really tried to help me, for example by offering lifts in their car. Unfortunately, the accommodation was very uncomfortable, and I want to be clear about it so future volunteers know what to expect. I tried to stay and put up with it, but … read more in the end I left because I didn't feel well or comfortable in that mess. There is a sign in the house saying that if you don't feel comfortable, you can leave at any time, so that's what I did.

Work: The work was mainly cleaning the horses' stables, and working hours and tasks were never clear. The best part was building and then assembling a small wooden house together, which was really fun.

Animals: The family keeps many dogs in cages, and I felt uncomfortable seeing them shut in. In the mobile home I was often woken up by the dogs barking.

Location and isolation: The place is very isolated. The nearest bus stop is a 30-minute walk away, and very few buses run each day. There is no café or anything else nearby, only one minimarket. The family lends a bike, but anything you need to do is at least 10 km away. I was often alone, so I had no chance to meet people or improve my English, which is one of the main reasons I chose Workaway.

Accommodation: The mobile home was cold, with 1 cm gaps around the windows letting in draughts and lots of spiders. I also live in the countryside myself, but my home isn't invaded by spiders every day, and I certainly don't have a spider nest in my sofa. Heating was a gas heater that couldn't be left on overnight, so it was cold at night. There was no hot water at the bathroom tap, and to get hot water in the shower I had to go outside and open the gas bottle. The light in the bathroom didn't work. For cooking I had only a camping stove and a badly scratched pan whose coating was damaged and, in my opinion, harmful to health and unfit for cooking. The water kettle was dirty and full of limescale. The bed smelled bad. When I asked for a vacuum cleaner to clean the cobwebs, it didn't work and mouse droppings came out of the hose, so I was given a very dirty dustpan instead. While moving the sofa I found eggshells behind it. The mobile home also cannot be locked.
I'd recommend future volunteers to clarify living conditions before arriving.
The hosts are good people, but these conditions might work for some people.
