  • Description

    Hi everyone!
    I'm Layla and I'm 20 years old.
    I'm from New Zealand but I'm currently on the road since graduating high school in 2022.
    I'm a young, very dedicated worker.
    i'm a bit of a free spirit whose wandering the globe enjoying connecting with individuals from all walks of life. Travel is something that constantly inspires me alongside learning about other cultures, traditions and religions.

    I tend to be described as a social butterfly as interacting with others, forming connections and spontaneous events/ adventures fuel me however, i also am greatly independent and enjoy the slow-paced lifestyle as well.

    i really enjoy hiking and being outdoors in general. My goal is to read more (isn't everyone's!). I love to play around in the kitchen and get creative.

  • More details about your skills

    After graduating high school 2022, i took my first gap year. I began my journey with my Mum to rural Nepal where we volunteered for a charity that builds earthbag schools. Our main tasks were to help paint the classrooms, mix cement and interact with the community.

    Shortly after, I started Au Pairing in London where I looked after an 18-month-old child for 6 months. This allowed me to take full responsibility for the child, gaining skills such as feeding, diaper changing, schedule creating etc.

    I have also spent time in schools around the world helping teach basic english.

    Back in my hometown i have previously worked as a hotel housekeeper which provided me with skills to create a clean and inviting environment for the guests.

    I also spent a season working in an apple pack-house. This involved lots of manual labour.

    I also have experience in Animal sitting and dog walking.

    I have done quite a bit of farming experience both back home and while travelling.

    I pride myself on my resilience and my can-do attitude towards new environments and situations.
