Description

Hello! I'm Eliesha, a solo traveller looking for good company and unique experiences! I am 25 years old coming from the rural countryside of England, with a love for exploring and enjoying all our world has to offer. I have been travelling often for the last 5 years, in that time I've been lucky enough to live in The Gambia for 5 months, supporting the local community through fundraising and developing sustainable gardens in the community, immersed in the culture and living life back to the basics. I have also explored Europe, Australia and South East Asia, volunteering in a wide range of work from animal sanctuary's to strawberry selling to hostel work.
I'm now in Australia, I've just finished a stint of working and travelling down the east coast and I'm now looking for a unique opportunity in areas of Australia I wouldn't otherwise get to visit!
I am easy going but hard-working and I enjoy getting my hands dirty and learning new skills, I'm currently on the hunt to learn carpentry and building skills! I am so excited for my next adventure and hope to follow my passions with building, outdoors and animals.

More details about your skills

I have worked with animals and children as well as in customer service, hospitality and more. I recently graduated with a Bachelors degree in Neuroscience and when I'm home I work as an outdoor activities instructor, training people of all ages in activities such as target shooting and all-terrain quad biking. I love my work, but I'm always ready to explore and want to experience life outside of my comfort zone. I have experience in sustainable horticulture from my time in The Gambia, volunteering in a food forest in Malaysia and personal gardening projects at home in England . Animal care is a passion and I have experience caring for over 50 dogs in an animal shelter in Thessaloniki, Greece and hospitality too, helping to open and run in a hostel in Thailand. I thrive in new, enriching environments and hope to surround myself with passionate people.

What else ...

I love to explore the outdoors, but also enjoy a cosy night in, watching films and board games.
My job at home entails hosting group events in outdoor activities, I'm confident teaching, public speaking and ensuring guests have a good time. In my spare time I enjoy house projects, such as cleaning and landscaping and attempting some YouTube DIY and have a passion for gardening and creating beautiful spaces. I'd would love to gain some more knowledge in building and mechanics.
My aim is to create a sustainable lifestyle and eventually create a home with this knowledge in the future!
