  • Description

    47-year-old Artist, Writer, and Comms Specialist with broad, lived experience.

    Will be traveling through Europe between February and August/September 2026, with one destination in mind. (But wanting to see as much as I can before I settle down again!)

    I’ve helped in many different environments: NGO/online projects, creative initiatives, small family gardens, permaculture spaces, farms, and projects involving children. Ran a youth NGO of my own for a few years in Estonia (so can organize a team, if needed, and have plenty of experience working with student interns).

    I enjoy meaningful work, quiet environments, and hosts who appreciate independence, clear communication, and kindness.

    Practical experience:

    • DIY- everything from soap and candle making, arts and crafts to cosmetics
    • Gardening (weeding, pruning, planting, simple landscaping)
    • General maintenance and painting (see before/after photos on my profile)
    • Cooking and housekeeping — reliable, clean, and organized
    • Supporting NGO and online projects (digital marketing, writing, PR)
    • Working with children — storytelling, creative activities, English reading practice
    • Comfortable with animals- have experience with farm work

    Skills:

    Digital Marketing, Writing, DIY/Crafts, Creativity/Storytelling, Social Media, Painting, Caretaking.

    Languages:

    Fluent German–English, conversational French, basic Italian (improving).

    About me:

    Calm, curious, respectful, and independent.

    I like places with nature, good conversations, meaningful work, and cultural exchange.

    I love DIY/anything with a visual output that I can get my hands on, really.

    And I love animals and children.

    Very open to language exchange and happy to share stories.

    About food & diet:

    I’ve been vegan, vegetarian, and omnivore at different stages of my life. My vegan phase developed naturally through my spiritual and health journey - it wasn’t ideological, just a period where lighter foods felt right for me and also helped the animals. Later, when I discovered my histamine-related health issues, I returned to a more varied diet on medical advice, listening to what my body needed.

    I’m respectful of all diets (vegan, vegetarian, or omnivore), flexible when cooking for others, and I don’t expect anyone to adapt their lifestyle to me.
