Description

Hey!
My name is Ola :)
I am new to Workaway and I am excited to learn, grow, exchange, explore and contribute in ways that I can 🤗

I’m someone who feels things deeply and notices a lot. I keep on learning to appreciate the small things in life, and to stay in the present moment. When I think about travelling, human connections that I've made along the way, remain one of the most precious things for me.

Spending time in nature and connecting with it brings me a lot of peace. It helps me to feel more grounded, grateful and supported. I have a special kind of love for the ocean. I've spent the past three years living abroad on a small island (Malta) and the sea has been a great support of mine. Whenever I had a bad day I could just walk towards the nearest beach, and standing in front of the ocean never failed to soothe me in its mysterious way.

I do my best to care for nature’s wellness on a daily basis: being mindful with the way I consume, eating plant-based (vegan) food, using cruelty-free products and using green travel 🌱 ❤️

Art is very important for me. I am learning to play piano, and guitar. I like singing, creative writing, dancing, painting and crocheting. I see art as something that is present everywhere, even in the smallest things around us, especially in the smallest things around us :) It makes me feel alive and brings me closer to the raw feeling of being human ❤️


Lots of love ✌️✨

More details about your skills

I graduated in English Literature and Psychology, both of which are a big passion of mine. I’ve been an English teacher for 8 years now. I enjoy accompanying my students on their journeys, seeing their confidence grow and sharing my love for the language with them.

I have a background in Acting and I am currently studying Dance and Movement Therapy :) I am very interested in the intersection between movement/dance and arts more generally and its therapeutic potential. How it brings us closer to our authentic selves, how it helps us to connect with others and the world around us. How it reminds us of our humanity and makes us tap into the softer, more vulnerable, more sensitive, more caring, more human parts of us. I've hosted workshops about authentic movement and creativity and I would love to do that more in the future!

I like cooking (plant-based ;). I’m the kind of person who when there’s nothing in the fridge can make magic happen :). Cooking and sharing it with others makes me the happiest (especially when others enjoy it :)

I have experience in childcare, helping in the garden, with fruit-picking, wall-painting, decorating, sculpting. I am motivated to help and I’m willing to learn new things :)
