Descrição

Hi Workaway hosts - Jackson from Melbourne, Australia here. I decided to open my Workaway profile and seek volunteering work as I have a passion for learning about new cultures, meeting and learning from interesting people and providing my skills and energy to help others - I can see how volunteering would assist each of these aspects. I have a strong interest in bettering myself, helping others and being mindful. I feel as though I can provide a careful hand in several different fields and can learn fast in areas which I'm less experienced. I have farmstay experience, housekeeping experience, pet/animal care and care for people with disability. I love connecting with people and find that I contribute well in a team setting as well as individually. I have 4+ years of professional sales and marketing experience but changed my career in 2022 to care for those with disability. My hobbies include playing sport (especially Australian football & basketball), playing guitar (not very well haha!), music, art, reading, learining languages, cooking, spending time with friends and attending different events. & travel of course!! I like to think of myself as an open, friendly, and non judgemental person willing to try new things, make new friends and learn from each experience.

Mais detalhes sobre meu interesse em idiomas
I began leaning Spanish at home in Melbourne 3 months before leaving on a 9 month backpacking trip in South America, December 2024. I attended Spanish school for 2 weeks in Lima, Peru, and obviously practiced my Spanish skills throughout my travels of South America. Since coming home in September '25 I have continued with online Spanish lessons 2-3 times per week. Currently in level A2.

Quais são suas habilidades?

I have a background in customer service and sales after studying Marketing and Communications at Swinburne University in Melbourne. I realised that working in this field wasn’t fulfilling me and I wanted to do a job helping people, so I began supporting people with disabilities. My brother has an intellectual disability (Downs Syndrome) and I think the patience and empathy I learned growing up with him helps me to work well in disability support . Having played football most of my life, I also tend to think I have a high work rate and work well in teams. I care for the quality of my work and like to perform to a high standard. I find that I can work with most types of people and can bring a fun energy to the workplace. I’m a punctual person and most of the time organised. I feel I have a problem solving brain, work well with computers, think I can write decently (always wanting to improve though) and am also pretty good with numbers. I enjoy learning and learn quite fast as well.

Algo mais...

I love to teach about Aussie culture, sports and music! I’m also half Sri Lankan and love to teach about this beautiful culture, food, landscape etc as well.
I play chess on my phone and have a mini board which travels with me. I also travel with Uno and Monopoly Deal haha.
Love movies!! Unfortunately I haven’t watched a lot whilst travelling but when in Australia it wouldn’t be uncommon to find me at a cinema haha.
Other than that, I think I’m a positive person always willing to learn from other people and make new friends :)
