Description
Hey there! 👋
I'm Victor—a open-minded spirited adventurer with roots in Taiwan and grew up in the UK. 🌏✨ Fresh out of the University of Brighton, I've been a globe-trotter since childhood, bouncing between continents and soaking up diverse cultures. Never really staying in one place!
Why Workaway? 🌍✨
Following my dream of becoming a digital nomad, I’m combining my passion for travel and teaching by working remotely as an online tutor. I’m excited to connect, share, and grow with communities around the world.
Workaway is more than travel—it's about living with purpose, embracing adventure, and turning every moment into a story worth telling! 🚀
I enjoy hiking, camping, and anything that brings me closer to nature. I appreciate life’s little moments and find joy in simple things. Helping others and seeing people smile is what makes every experience even more meaningful.😊
I also embarked on the Camino de Santiago, hiking from Portugal to Santiago, Spain—an unforgettable journey that shaped my perspective on life. 🌿🚶♂️
Spending a month walking through serene countryside, charming villages, and historic towns, I experienced the beauty of simplicity and the power of human connection. Every step taught me patience, resilience, and gratitude. Staying in different local places, I learned to adapt, embrace new cultures, and share meaningful moments with fellow travelers from around the world.
It wasn’t just a physical journey but a soulful one—an experience that deepened my appreciation for slow travel, authentic connections, and the joy of shared stories.
New to Workaway but a quick learner, have completed my first one in Lyon not long ago...
Let's Create Memories Together! I'm on the lookout for hosts who value cultural & language exchange, shared stories, and collaborative projects. Whether it's assisting with daily tasks, teaching, or brainstorming new ideas, I'm all in.
Life's an adventure, and I can't wait to embark on this journey with you. Let's make it unforgettable! 🚀🌟

I've lived in Lyon before to learn French, but it wasn’t enough to reach the level I wanted.

In return, I’m happy to help with English or basic Mandarin—whether it's casual conversation practice or more structured learning!

📚 Teaching & Language Exchange
Back in Taiwan, I had the joy of teaching English to kids aged 6-12 and tutoring Mandarin to international adults. Their curiosity and enthusiasm made every lesson a rewarding experience!
🐾 Animal Lover
I've cared for pets in both home settings and volunteer shelters, ensuring they are well-fed, groomed, and exercised. I understand the love and responsibility that come with looking after animals.
🌿 Gardening & Farming
I’ve volunteered on organic farms, assisting with planting, harvesting, and maintaining vegetable gardens. I also have experience in basic landscaping and garden upkeep.
🔧 DIY & Maintenance
With years of experience working in hotels, I’ve helped with basic repairs, painting, furniture assembly, and general maintenance to keep spaces welcoming and functional.
🏡 Hospitality & Cooking
From housekeeping in hotels to assisting with guest services, I ensure spaces are clean and inviting. I also enjoy preparing simple, home-style meals for hosts and fellow volunteers.
💻 Digital Skills
With a background in social media management, content creation, and photography, I love helping promote local events and community projects online—skills I developed during my university studies.
I’m easy-going, adaptable, and always eager to connect with new people. Whether it's helping with kids, working with animals, maintaining a tidy space, or sharing stories over dinner, I’m excited to contribute and create meaningful memories together! 🌍✨

What else ...
I’m the kind of person who wakes up excited for a new adventure, whether it’s a hike through the mountains or a peaceful walk in nature. I absolutely love appreciating the little things—like the sound of leaves crunching underfoot or a beautiful sunset. I’m all about bringing positive energy, laughter, and good vibes into the home. I’m super sporty, and hiking is one of my favorite ways to connect with the world around me.
But it’s not just about the activities—I’m also a great listener and love hearing stories. Whether we’re talking about travel, culture, or just life experiences, I can’t wait to exchange stories with you and your community. Together, we’ll create some unforgettable memories! 🌍🎲📸
