Hello! I’m currently living in Toronto and will be travelling the East Coast of Canada in July and the West Coast in August! Open to meeting travel buddies and going on adventures!
Description
Hello!
I have been living in Canada for almost four years, having moved over from London, England.
I haven’t been able to secure permanent residency here, so in order to make the most of my time left in this wonderful Country I have decided to spend the next couple of months travelling both coasts and exploring all the exciting nature and scenery, as well as time exploring smaller cities, as I’ve lived (and loved!)Toronto as my home the last few years.
I will spend July on the East Coast, with stops in St John’s, PEI and Halifax, and August on the West Coast~ still finalising things here, but hoping to spend time in Victoria, Tofino, Nanaimo, Gabriola Island and Vancouver.
I’ve worked in a range of industries, including Fashion, the Funeral Industry and also Customer Service, so I’m super adaptable, love meeting people and am curious to learn lots about all sorts of subjects. I’m an enthusiastic, gentle and warm person, excited to adventure round Canada for the next couple of months! Open to travel buddies!
I am always keen to learn new skills and help out in whatever ways possible whilst volunteering as a Workaway. Gardening, cleaning, cooking, DIY, painting etc ~ and anything else that may arise! I’ve worked on animal sanctuaries so am comfortable in those settings also.
So far with Workaway I have spent time on two different Greek Islands helping on Animal Sanctuaries, a Yoga retreat in rural France and a Butterfly Garden in Costa Rica. All of these experiences have been fantastic and I’ve met some incredible people, and animals, along the way.
