Descrição
Hi, I'm Ellie!
I'm from the UK but I'm always on the move. I've been in Japan since November, doing my working holiday visa in Hakuba. Myself and my partner are looking for a 2 week workaway, roughly 23rd March until 4th April. We have a car and are happy to travel!
I've used workaway since 2020 and have had countless amazing experiences. From carpentry, gardening, animal care, painting etc. I enjoy the diversity of jobs workaway presents to me.
Learning about locals and their backgrounds is really interesting. It has given me a new perspective on life, and opened my eyes to options outside the standard 9-5 way of living. I feel like I've learnt many important life lessons from each and every workaway so far.
I am happiest when surrounded by animals, be it at a rescue centre, seeing wild animals in their natural habitat, at a sanctuary, or a home with pets. So being around animals would be a bonus!
I’m active, reliable, hard working, energetic, love learning new skills as well as improving what I already know, and trustworthy. Some of my hobbies include: hiking, dog sitting and walking, longboarding, canoeing, visiting art galleries, snowboarding, yoga, being creative with food, and sketching.
I'm a long term vegan, so staying at a workaway that can accommodate, or allows me to cook for myself, or is willing to try vegan food, would be ideal.
Thank you for taking a look over my profile :)

The animals are so well looked after and happy. Pippa loves them with all her heart, and I believe they know that.

I felt really welcomed and comfortable living with Amanda, her lovely family, and two other workaways. Amanda was super relaxed about hours. She was out most days so depending on weather etc we decided which jobs to do that day, which I appreciated as I'm a wuss in the heat haha. They had a few rescue possoms and I was honoured to have one named… read more

I loved my stay with Ian and Tanya. I felt really comfortable and warmly welcomed into their family. Jobs varied but mainly consisted of weeding, painting, cleaning, cooking, and walking the dogs, which I was perfectly happy with. They live in a beautiful area, so during time off it was great to explore the coast and nearby lakes

Ellie was a pretty amazing workawayer. Always with a cheery smile, she cooked up delicious meals for us regularly and was a tremendous help with odd jobs and dog sitting. It was a real pleasure to have been able to host her.

Shane is a relaxed, open, friendly human, who I really enjoyed getting to know. The house is really beautiful and unusual, I stayed in a private room. It can be a bit hectic when his children are around, but that was all part of the fun. There was an endless supply of food, so I enjoyed cooking up exciting vegan meals.

Robyn is a really lovely, chatty person. She very kindly took me in last minute. I enjoyed cooking tasty meals together! The work was very relaxed, I spent most my time happily weeding away in the garden. The guest room is lovely, with a view over the front garden.

My time at the resort was full of interesting activities and life lessons. Due to the pandemic things were were slightly different to usual e.g. as there weren't any guests, we didn't need to do any housekeeping, but I was kept very busy mostly weeding/planting/maintaining the resorts multiple gardens. Alain is such a lovely human, he kept us all… read more
