    Activities i am interested in:

    I am interested in trying everything! More specifically I’d love to work with animals:) I'm coming a long way from home, and want to experience the most that I possibly can during my travels.

  • Description

    I've always been a very adventurous/social person, I traveled to Cambodia when I was 16 and worked in an orphanage for a month! I helped re build it, and teach the kids English. It was one of the most amazing experiences of my entire life. I am currently in school to become a veterinarian. I’ve done work in doggy daycares, sanctuaries, and vet clinics. but I am taking a gap year this year to travel! Traveling, animals, people in general, and experiencing different ways of life has always brought me so much interest and happiness.

  • More details about your skills

    Like I mentioned before, I worked in a Cambodian orphanage for a month. I rebuilt it, and taught the children English. I volunteered at a camp for children with special needs as well for two summers. I volunteered in Costa Rica with Capuchin and Howler monkeys. I have always loved working with people and animals as I'm a compassionate, and hard working person. I have been in University since I as 17. I major in Biochemistry at the university of Calgary, and after I want to go to Veterinary school to pursue my passion in animals as well. I grew up competitively ski racing, which taught me to be hard working, but also a team player. I love learning and trying new things, and experiencing new places as well.
