Hello!
My name is Pauline. I grew up in Malaysia and have the good fortune of experiencing the confluence of both East-West cultures. I enjoyed both Hollywood and Bollywood and all the other cultures from South-East Asia, Hong Kong and Taiwan. I am Chinese by ethnicity but grew up in a wonderfully tri-lingual and mixed-race (Chinese/Indian/Malay) society in Malaysia.
I am a 59 yo semi-retired medical interpreter (English-Mandarin). I love my job as I not only get to provide language help, but I feel I can provide a sense of comfort and safety for my LEP patients, and most of them are elderly patients.
After years of traveling as a tourist, my heart was starting to feel quite done with this kind of travel. Then I stumbled upon the Workaway website and I thought "Gosh! I've been living under a rock!!" Now I feel more hopeful than ever to start a whole new experience of traveling, longing to explore genuine cultural experiences and connections with people from all around the world.
I love Nature the most and I love everything related to our beautiful planet Earth. I’m interested to work in farming, gardening, childcare, house chores, pet sitting —oh yes I am a big time doggie lover!! :)) I would love to learn any new skills needed. Thank you!

Spring 2023
I went to Tuscany Italy in March/April 2023 for my first 3 Workaways and I L-O-V-E it!!!
My biggest joy with Workaway was getting to know all the hosts and Workawayers!! All of them are incredibly kind-hearted, open-minded, fun-loving, nature-loving, talented people! I love the balance of spending wonderful time with hosts and workawayers, helping the hosts with different kinds of work, and having some free time to explore the local surroundings.
