Description

Hi there, I'm Liv!
I'm really excited about joining Workaway and being able to immerse myself into experiences around the world.
I love to travel and meet new people and I hope to make life long memories and have experiences that will both fulfil me, and others.
At home I work with kids as a piano teacher and a teaching assistant in schools. I've also done a lot of work with people with learning disabilities, I'm currently undertaking my BSc (part time&online) in Psychology.
Travelling is what motivates me and makes me happy, I hope to spend my life in different places, with different people, having fun and spreading kindness- with others and the planet.

Plus de détails sur les langues qui m'intéressent
I would love to learn new languages. I know some French but I am keen to learn more. I am also very interested to learn Spanish due to its use worldwide. However, I'd love to be able to learn the basics in every country I visit, so please do make me your student! I do have my TEFL (120hrs) qualification and have some experience teaching English as a foreign language- I hope to gain more experience in this in 2024.

Quelles sont vos compétences ?

I'm really friendly, kind and hardworking. I love to make new friends and make meaningful connections wherever I am which is one of the main reasons that I am focussing on workaway experiences at the moment. Life experiences build a life, I want mine to be as varied and as positive as possible.
I'm social but can also work hard, fun but not a mad partier, and I'm flexible(- you kinda have to be as a traveller!) Mostly though I just want to immerse myself in different ways of life and get to experience how other people live, and what makes life LIFE for them.
If I can learn new skills or languages along the way that's fantastic. New friends? -count me in!

I've worked in hospitality before - cafe's etc - and am comfortable with customer service, keeping to timetables etc. I am also a naturally laid back person and try to keep things positive from the get- go. A huge part of travelling for me is making friends and sharing experiences with others, however I don't drink and rarely stay out super late, so I'm suer reliable.

I have a lot of experience with children as I have both taught and assisted in learning environments. (I work as a piano teacher and a teaching assistant.) I love kids and feel comfortable interacting with children of all ages, I have a laid-back attitude with children and like be approachable but caring.

I have experience with animals due to growing up with cats and dogs in my family home and later caring for them a lot. I love spending time with cats in particular and I have had very strong bonds with my cats throughout my life, I adore dogs and love to give them all of the attention they deserve! I've also helped out at friends farms before- during lambing especially- and am not scared to get my hands dirty.

I've had a lot of experience working with both adults and children with learning disabilities. I feel passionately about this work and endeavour to do more of it in the future (alongside my psychology degree, which helps me in this work). I love making connections with people regardless of any labels about abilities/disabilities and try to create trusting relationships with everyone I meet.

I have a functional gastrointestinal motility disorder which means I am unable to eat as normal. Instead I have a PEG tube through which I get nutrition. I travel with supplies for this. I still enjoy cooking and tasting little bits of food!
