Description
Hello! My name is Roisin and I am from the UK.
I quit my job working as a Civil Servant in December 2023 to take a 2 year career break to travel the world. So far I have been to China, Japan, South Korea Canada, Panama, Colombia, Mexico, Belize, Guatemala and El Salvador and have loved using Workaway and other help exchange sites during this time.
I grew up in Libya, Egypt and Malaysia and since my childhood have had a keen interest in travelling. I studied my university degree in Liverpool, UK in Bioveterinary Science, where I further developed my passion for animal science and care.
I love participating in team sports such as volleyball and netball, and enjoy yoga and pilates. I also find joy in outdoor activities such as hiking, skiing, scuba diving and cycling.

Quelles sont vos compétences ?
I am keen to get involved with DIY projects and would love to improve my current knowledge of gardening and plant care. During my travels so far I have been involved with lots of homesteading and farming projects and have thoroughly enjoyed learning how to grow and cook with local produce.
I have experience with house and garden renovation and look forward to sharing and developing my skills through Workaway stays. In Japan I spent time renovating a 116 year old traditional house where I did dry-walling and various woodwork using power tools.
I have always loved cooking and I am keen to learn more about local cuisine during my travels. I am an organised and tidy person, happy to get stuck into any daily jobs around the house.
I love working with children and have experience teaching English to Burmese refugees whilst living in Malaysia. l also worked as a camp counsellor in a summer camp in upstate New York for 2 summers, teaching canoeing, rock climbing, mountain biking, camping and hiking skills to children.
Animal husbandry and care is something I have a background in and am very passionate about. I would love to get involved with any animal related projects and love being in the company of pets. I’ve grown up with pets for most of my life and frequently pet sit for friends and have used dog walking apps such as BorrowMyDoggy.

Roisin is such a lovely person to have around. So easy going and very hard worker and wow what an amazing cook! She braved the relentless biting mosquitoes and the hot summer sun while clearing brush, assisting with our pond creation and as well as some painting and various other maintenance tasks on our small rural. She loved and cared for our… read more

Carla and James are two of the kindest and most thoughtful people I have met. I stayed with them for a month and the work mostly involved fire proofing the forest, painting, preparing a pond, digging and looking after the vegetable patch and weeding. Carla and James have lots of exciting projects planned so there is lots to get stuck into! Brisco… read more

Roisin was a great volunteer during her 6 weeks at the villa and a pleasure to have on our team. She was careful and thorough with the cleaning shifts. She learnt the job quickly and took initiative with anything that needed doing around the villa. She is friendly, helpful and approachable to guests and we would love to have her back anytime!

I had the best 6 weeks at this place, and would have loved to stay longer. The other volunteers were amazing and we had such a great team. The villa is absolutely stunning and being right on the beach is a great perk. The shifts are well organised with clear expectations. They are busy but the time passes quickly and there is plenty of free time… read more

Roisin was a charm to work with... she baked the most amazing energy bars ;-)
She integrated really well with other workawayers and roommates becoming part of the family in no time.
She was great at picking up instructions and very reliable and independent in her tasks around the house.
I'd recommend her with my eyes closed ... Such a sweet girl !

Ximena is a kind and warm host who made me feel comfortable as soon as I arrived. The work I did mostly involved cleaning, weeding and other work in the garden. Ximena is flexible with how you spread out your hours and was always appreciative of the work that was completed. The other workawayers and tenants at the house were great company and we… read more

Haely, and her roommate Hannah, made me feel comfortable as soon as I arrived. Hannah was super lovely to hang out with and spend time with during my week in Vancouver.
Misha is a really sweet and loyal dog. Once she feels comfortable around you she is adorable, chilled out and low maintenance. She was a pleasure to look after and spend time… read more

It was a pleasure to host Roisin at our farm! Although she stayed for just two weeks, we truly wished she could have stayed longer. Roisin is warm, attentive, and considerate of everyone around her. She took on responsibilities and showed initiative, such as organizing a cleaning and cooking schedule. A natural leader, she ensures that everyone is… read more

Art is an approachable and genuine person who took the time to explain tasks thoroughly and clearly. The work schedule was well organised and mostly involved simple work of apple picking, weeding and other yard work. On the weekends we went for hikes and kayaked on the lake. There is a generous food allowance and it was really nice to cook and… read more

Roisin and Declan were really, really great workawayers and are all-round great people. They have an incredible work ethic and are very skilled in many ways. I fully trusted them to do their very best when asked to carry out tasks. Welcome back anytime!
