Will be starting my OE (slow travelling, time in nature, visiting places I've never been) after a conference in northern France. Especially interested in marine/sustainability. See you there!

Kia ora koutou! I'll first introduce where I'm from - Aotearoa New Zealand - because this tells a lot about me (laidback, nature lover, tramper and coaster at heart). I am Lottie, early 20s, an Antarctic researcher with a love for volunteering and making a difference. First tried Workaway in Europe after a student exchange in the Netherlands, loved it, and am back again for more :)

Looking for a few places to spend summer 2025 - open to England, Wales, Scotland, Ireland, or countries on the European mainland that are close to (ideally with a ferry connection to) the UK. Get in touch!
---
Hobbies include hiking with friends, hitting the beach, visiting nature reserves, half-marathons, and lots of other outdoor pursuits. I am looking to explore more places and lifestyles while volunteering (which also takes up some of my free time back home). I am definitely aiming to depart from the typical touristy experiences and try to create some more good in the world (personal development is a plus, too!). During my last travels in Europe I mainly enjoyed alpine and lakeside experiences - I’m keen to see so much more of this, as I'm sure I'll miss the beaches, mountains and native bush that have surrounded me in Aotearoa.

I am vegetarian. I hope to learn a lot of new things, including more vegan recipes :) Projects with a focus on positive climate impacts, citizen science/research/NGOs, wellbeing, working in or with nature, and generally improving the lives of others are my cup of tea.Centres d’intérêt

Katharine and Eric picked me up from a nearby coastal area, and we immediately went fossil hunting at a beach which was right up my alley. The rest of my stay and experience here was similarly great! Unfortunately I did get sick very early on, which they… read more
