Hello I'm Connie :)
I'm 27 and from Manchester, UK. Travel is what feeds my soul - I love exploring new places, particularly green/coastal ones, and getting to know new people and cultures. When the pandemic hit, I was living in Sydney Australia, enjoying the beautiful beaches.
Before my time in Sydney, I spent 6 weeks wild camping across Africa to satiate my obsession with African elephants! I mostly enjoy travelling alone to fully immerse myself in the places I go and the people I might meet. I also love hiking, swimming, yoga, reading and any activity in nature, preferably in the presence of animals.
I love meeting new people of all ages, and I'm often told that I'm an old soul. The simple things in life are what make me happiest - access to natural surroundings, exercise, good company, nourishing food, learning new skills.
I did my first workaway in the Tuscan hills in summer 2021 - I spent 6 weeks with a beautiful family and had such an amazing and life affirming time. My jobs included; entertaining their daughter and helping her with her summer homework and household chores, gardening (including tending to the veg patch, weeding, planting and watering new veggies, caging and spraying the vines in the small vineyard and more), housework (decluttering, tidying, deep cleaning of an unused property, general housework), indoor and outdoor maintenance jobs, indoor and outdoor painting (including sanding and re-varnishing the original window frames), and of course helping out at mealtimes and keeping my bedroom and bathroom clean and tidy.
I hope that through completing more workaways, I will learn from likeminded people and experience a variety of lifestyles, in exchange for helping out as best I can :) this summer I'm craving getting back to nature - I'd love to spend some time in Italy and France, before later this year setting off back down under, possibly stopping somewhere along the way

I'm a team player and enjoy the company of people of all ages. I also find being in the presence/company of animals to nourish the soul more than pretty much anything else
I spent many of my teenage years as a babysitter and now have two 6 year old nieces who I adore spending time with. I've always felt very comfortable entertaining and looking after children of varying ages
In 2019, I spent 6 weeks overlanding (group travel in a truck, camping in a new destination each night) across Africa and picked up plenty of skills that transfer nicely to workaway - it was dusty and mucky and hard graft and I LOVED it
I'm inherently hardworking and really enjoy physical work so would love to help out as needed :) I'm not afraid to get my hands dirty!Âge

Autres infos...
I'm an independent, friendly, extremely organised and open person. I pride myself on being honest and respectful of others. I love to experience other people's way of living and new experiences so I love the workaway ethos!
