Hi!
My name is Julia Nixon. I live in New Jersey, USA, and am currently a student at Rutgers University. I am studying Spanish with plans to become a high school teacher. I have been studying Spanish for nine years and would love to travel abroad to learn more about the language, the people, and the culture firsthand. I speak English (native) and Spanish (advanced low).
I'm currently looking for a host for the summer. I am mainly interested in a language exchange (English for Spanish!), working in a school or hotel/B&B, or working with children.
I love learning new things and meeting new people; these are the two main reasons I am interested in traveling. Some of my favorite things to do are hike, run, read books, write, play piano and ukulele, and cook. I like sports and having a healthy, active lifestyle. I am responsible, family-oriented, and caring. I enjoy spending time with my parents, older sister, and younger cousins.
In terms of work, I have been an au-pair in Spain (summer 2018), a marketing intern for a small consulting firm, a Physics tutor, a gardening volunteer at an arboretum, a babysitter, and a soccer referee. I have excellent people skills and problem-solving skills and work well both alone and with others. I am studious and a high academic performer.
Some final notes: I do have a severe nut allergy, but overall I am in good physical condition. I do not smoke. I am open to new experiences, people, and food and am excited about the WorkAway progam.Langues

Being that this was my first time traveling abroad and alone, I really appreciated how the family spoke with me and my parents prior to my arrival. The father, Ronan (who is also French!), was kind… read more
