Description
Hi all!
I'm Rosanne and looking forward to use this Workaway experience to acquire new skills, meet interesting people and discover new places.
I'm an energetic person and enjoy living an active and healthy lifestyle. I love to have people around, hear their stories and share good conversations. People I know would characterise me as open-minded, flexible, hard-working and reliable. I enjoy helping others as well as learning from them.
I would love to start living a simpler, more conscious life, in touch with nature. I am looking forward to learn more about growing fruits and vegetables (and cooking with them), permaculture, sustainable development and animal care.
I used to work as a policy officer for the Dutch government, on temporary projects at different ministries. This way of working allowed me to continuously acquire new (professional) skills and knowledge, a great challenge! In my free time I like to play sports (fitness, tennis, squash, riding my racing bike), cooking, reading and meeting up with friends.
At uni I've had some Spanish classes and a few years back I travelled through Guatemala to improve my Spanish skills. However the level of my Spanish at the moment is basic at best. Therefore I would love to improve it with some practice!
