Description

Hello! I'm Arina, a creative person who loves exploring new things. I graduated from high school this year and I plan to apply to university. I'm excited to experience various cultures and form lifelong relationships worldwide, while I’m on a break from studying.

As an art school graduate, I enjoy adding creativity to everything I do. In addition, I'm a language enthusiast and I love interacting with people from diverse backgrounds. I have gained useful skills in hospitality, translation, and cultural exchange from my volunteering experience as a participant attaché at international events like Kazan Global Youth Summit. I'm also comfortable with physical work and outdoor activities, thanks to my experience with sports like mountain skiing and freediving. I absolutely adore animals and I have a cat.

What excites me most about Workaway is the chance to experience authentic local life while making meaningful contributions to my hosts' projects. I'm reliable, adaptable, and always eager to learn new skills.

I believe that the best way to understand a new place is through genuine connections with local people. I'm looking forward to sharing stories, skills, daily life with my hosts, and creating lasting memories together.

More details about your skills

In terms of practical skills, I have hands-on experience in gardening and basic construction. I've helped my grandparents in the garden, including planting, watering, and harvesting, and I've built simple structures like birdhouses and chairs. I'm also skilled in both drawing and painting, so I can contribute to various art projects. I'm great with animals and enjoy working with pets.

As a native Russian speaker, I can assist with translation and cultural exchange. I have an experience working with international teams during a fashion show where I acted as a translator between English-speaking designers and Russian-speaking models. I’m also learning German, and currently my level is A2.
