Profile information


Description
I am a friendly, gentle and enthusiastic person who loves nature and being creative.
I have just finished a year studying Practical Sustainability and Permaculture. I want to take what I've learnt into the world and support others to explore their relationship with the natural world through food, art, and whatever feels right to them.
I am trained in English teaching, yoga teaching and have experience in a range of skills such as running training for groups, cooking for groups, event organisation, managing volunteers, supporting vulnerable adults and working with kids.
I love music, storytelling, walking, cooking, singing and spending time with people.

What else ...
Sometimes I think I am an 8 year old and an 80 year old in one - I love having fun but also like simple things like enjoying food with friends.
Since the pandemic, I have been doing yoga every morning as it makes a huge difference to how I feel throughout the day. I would love to do a yoga teaching course one day!
Musicality is also a big part of my life and I love music and dancing - I enjoy listening to music with others, whether its hip hop or classical music - I went to WOMAD festival this summer and absolutely loved the diversity of music and dance I experienced there.
I think I am a curious soul who is always up for trying new things!
