Travelling
Description
I'm currently moving from Australia to Sweden, but taking my sweet time to get there whilst enjoying a European summer! I'm an Environmental Management and Sustainability consultant back home but loving taking a break from the 9-5 laptop life and have no plans for work in Sweden yet. I'm super friendly and positive and love doing new things with new people.
I want to meet like-minded people from across the globe, learn and experience new things and travel and see the world as sustainably as possible.
I believe workaway provides the opportunity to truly immerse yourself in the culture and lifestyle of a region while creating new friendships and learning valuable skills and knowledge from others. The exchanges I have done so far throughout Canada and South America have been some of the best travel experiences of my life and I wouldn't choose to travel any other way.

Hospede a Nikki durante una semana en la que pude sentir que es una chica muy dulce y amable, sin duda una voluntaria recomendable para cualquier host. Me ayudo a cocinar, a limpiar el jardin de malas hierbas... Te deseo lo mejor en Urubamba!

Our week spent with Luis was awesome and the best start to our workaway experience in South America. We were part of a great group of other workawayers too who made it feel like a family. The work was only for a few hours each morning, leaving time to chill every afternoon or explore the beautiful small town and mountains surrounding the Hacienda,… read more

If there was a 6 star option Nikki would get it! She is one who is eager to learn and have fun while doing so. Energy is super positive, always willing to help and never counting how many hours she's worked. I really appreciate how she keeps things organized and clean, putting things back where they belong, something I wish more helpers can do...… read more

The work was mostly helping in the kitchen whilst I was here, preparing for catering and workshops, which felt more like an awesome learning experience than work. Tom has so… read more
