About me

It has been said that I have what is called an "old soul". I am very mature and hardworking for my age and I have gained a lot of knowledge through it all that I am wanting/needing to share with the world.
Music is a huge part of my life, I am truly able to appreciate every genre of music and it is what gets me through every day. I am very drawn to the older music and I particularly love The Beatles, I even have a tattoo of their Help! album. I collect various vinyl records and they are my pride and joy.
Reading is another important hobby of mine. My all time favourite book to read is the original Jane Eyre, I could read that book over and over again until the day I die.
I absolutely love to bake cakes and little chocolate truffles so I will probably bake for you and your family however, I am not the best cook.
I am a fairly active person, I love to go for walks/hikes, bike rides and I love to do yoga and meditation. I am a very happy and smily person who loves to chat and learn about other peoples childhood and lives so I will probably talk your ear off.
I am a very well rounded and caring person with most things. I see the world around me and I feel like I was put here to do more than just exist, helping people and just lending a hand feels like the right thing for me to do.

Preferred location

Seriously I just want to travel any and everywhere. Whatever continent or country that will have me, I'm on board.

Skills

Hello! I am a 19 year old girl who lives in Canada who is willing and able to help out with basic living while doing some travelling. I can help in any house with cooking or cleaning needs, I am able to take care of young children/elderly people needing assistance or any pets such as dogs, cats, horses, birds, rabbits etc. I speak English so I can help out with any households needing help learning English as well as working towards speaking English better. I would love the opportunity to learn more languages so living with a bilingual family would be fantastic. I am a very laid back person who is just looking to have some fun, meet new people, and see different parts of the world. I am not a partier so no need to worry, I am more interested in learning the cultures of different places. I look forward to get the opportunity to do this!

Additional info

I am not a smoker, I have a drivers license, I am not a vegetarian and I have no allergies.
