Description
Hi!
My name is Elvira and I'm 25 years old. I'm outgoing and social, but also enjoy to be alone in my down time and work on my projects. Currently I enjoy knitting, crocheting, painting and learning the japanese language. I thrive when I'm learning new skills or facts.
Most of my life I've been a student, I just finished my bachelor in Chemistry and Biochemistry and now I'm taking a gap year to travel in Japan. Workaway is a great opportunity for me to do what I want during my travels: meet people and learn about the culture from locals.
I can thrive in any type of job as long as I get to connect with the people I work with. Farm work would be ideal for me as I want to see the country side as well as the big cities. My hometown (Its called Ås and you can see my childhood home garden in my photos) is small and known for its agriculture, so I feel at home at places surrounded by fields and the sound of bugs and birds.
Fun fact: when I was around 13 I decided I would never fly again, because of the environment, except for when I would go to Japan in the future, and thats now!

Autres infos...
I would love to talk about how we might think in different patterns either based on our personality or environment. I think this is a great way to learn about culture as well!
