Description
Hi! My name is Sylvia. I'm a Taiwanese backpacker who'd spent the past two years working and traveling around Australia. In early 2025, I'd be travelling to New Zealand as a farewell trip before leaving Oceania.

I'm currently in a transitional period of my life when I'm trying to switch to a completely different career path. But since graduating from college, I've been a cook that has worked in both Western and Asian restaurants. Cooking and making dessert would always be my lifelong passion no matter what I do for a living, and it's always a delight for me to share recipes and dishes with friends I meet on this exciting journey we call life.

In addition to food preparation, I'm interested in workaway opportunities that involves working with nature, animals and opportunities to discover more languages and cultures. I also enjoy trying new things and am open to any new experiences that may teach me something.

Personality wise, I'm generally quiet. I like spending my free time reading over a cup of coffee, taking a walk in the forest or in the city, or baking everyone some cookies in the kitchen. But I have a social side too and I love real conversations.

Looking forward to meet you :)

I just spent a lovely week with Marie and Noe, and I wish I could stay longer! They're both very welcoming and easy-going. They went above and beyond to take me to nice places around Mt. Gambier, some of them I would certainly have missed if I were on my own, including the famous blue lake, a nice natural reserve where we saw some wallabies, even… read more

Love my stay at Peter's! Within the one week I spent with him and other volunteers we worked on several interesting projects, cooked great food, and visited some surrounding areas together and had a lot of fun. This was a unique experience for me because usually I'm quite reserved and social situations where I need to deal with many people just… read more

Both Jeannie and Neil are among the kindest people I've met. During my stay, I mainly worked with Jeannie and she was hardworking, very knowledgeable about the natural environment in the area, yet easygoing. It was a pleasure to work with her. Although it was pretty cold, also things could be slow during winter, their homestead was situated in… read more

We truly enjoyed Sylvia's visit!
She really was always two steps ahead on what needed doing, and especially worked well with everyone. We were having a rough time due to family illness and she stuck it out, helping any way she could. The weather was cold and she toughed it out like a trooper! I cracked up laughing several times...she is quiet… read more

Sylvia was a gem of a volunteer
I was not well the two weeks she was with me and spent most the time in my room . I felt totally relaxed knowing she was dong the right thing around the place. She has a genuine love for animals and was aware of each ones needs and attended to each one that needed attention.
It was a real rest for me and much… read more

I stayed almost two weeks with Rosemary and it was an incredible experience. Rosemary is a kind, amazing woman doing what she can to help the animals around Colan-- a much needed job here. She made me felt at homes at once, and went out of her ways to accommodate my vegetarian diet which I really appreciate. The animals here are so cute, yet many… read more

Jose and his family were lovely and very welcoming, and they deserve four stars for the hospitability. However, there weren´t much help to do while I was there recently. While I tried to help with a few things in the kitchen, I´m terrible at things like peeling potatos with a knife and sometimes feel I´m more of a burden than help to the family,… read more

Hans is a very generous and welcoming host. I stayed there for two weeks and really enjoyed the peace in the country sides as well as the good food and music Hans made. The way Hans and his family lives is very different from what's conventional nowadays, but I found it not only an interesting experience but also something enlightening, and after… read more
