Description

Hello/Salve, I’m Lauren!

I am a curious and adventurous person, described by my family and friends as positive, funny, kind, and resilient. I have a deep interest in life, opportunities to grow, connecting with others, and philosophical topics.

I have a passion for travel, exploring many places, most recently as a WorkAway guest in Italy. After returning home briefly for the holidays in December, I am eager to return and am seeking available hosts. I already have the necessary visa to work and am actively learning Italian.

My decision to use WorkAway started from my interest in self-discovery and improvement, constantly aiming to be the best version of myself. Since my last trip, I've also found an even deeper appreciation for assisting others in need of help. I love the learning, human connections, and meaningful experiences I’ve found through travel. These motivations have also helped me in pursuing a specific life goal: writing and publishing a book of my own poems.

I find happiness in a wide variety of things such as art, particularly writing, poetry, and music. I also find joy in my relationships, caring for my collection of house plants (and outdoor gardening when the Canadian weather allows), spending time with my dog Kida, meditation, and a wide variety of arts/crafts, at the current moment being a blanket I am crocheting.

Thanks for taking the time to read about me, I hope you will consider me for your guest position. I hope to hear back from you soon and we can discuss any further information.

I did well in English classes, I enjoy reading and writing, and feel I could certainly help others practice/perfect their English. I would love to learn another language (or more!) and am currently trying to learn Italian.

Quelles sont vos compétences ?

Since graduating high school, I have began studying psychology, culinary arts/baking, and business, but with such a wide variety of interests I have yet to decide on what to pursue in university so am waiting to return to school until I have chosen the right path for myself.

I am fluent in english, and feel I could assist others in practicing the language as well. I would love to learn other languages if given the opportunity!

I have worked as a barista in multiple coffee shops over the years, and have substantial knowledge of coffee and a love for latte art!

I would love to offer workaway hosts with any help/skills that I already possess, or new ones I could be taught as I am a fast and enthusiastic learner. I live by myself with my dog, so I am familiar with usual housework - like tidying, painting, redecorating or even small fixes. Additionally I have had many pets (dogs, a cat, a large fish tank, bunnies, and even a hedgehog) so am very passionate about spending time with or helping animals. In the past, I’ve also volunteered in a children’s museum, and a senior care home. I always love cooking/baking for others, and I am also pretty experienced with plants, having a diverse collection in my house, growing vegetables outside in the summer, and I have even worked in a greenhouse.

Most importantly I am open to being taught new skills in other areas not mentioned, and even if I had no prior experience, I always try my best and tend to pick up new skills fast.

Autres infos...

I try to be consistent with meditation and mindfulness, and would love to get better at yoga. Growing up I did gymnastics, dance, and even some circus arts, so I try to maintain some level of athleticism.

I am a huge music lover. Playing instruments all my life: violin for 14 years, piano lessons, beginner level guitar and ukulele, and band instruments in school such as clarinet and oboe. I enjoy listening to all genres of music (and singing along when I’m on my own!).
