Description

Hi hi hosts and fellow travellers! :P I’m Ellie, a 23 year old Scot eager to see the world. I’m here to learn about quite literally anything and everything. I have an innate appreciation for everything human and natural.

At this time in my life (university dropout with minimal purpose or direction) I have a great desire to meet new people, experience new things and build meaningful connections while doing so!

More details about your skills

I have plenty of experience in customer service, retail and cleaning services. I garden for locals in my spare time, babysit, and tutor English online. I have also previously au paired abroad twice, I consider myself an independent person with initiative.
I love to get my hands dirty and learn new things. Theres not a whole lot I wouldn’t be willing to do. Cleaning, cooking, harvesting, animal care, wood cutting, gardening, painting, childcare, sowing (or sewing!) carpentry- I’ll do it all! Ultimately I just want to be in a fulfilling environment and help people out while learning from them :)

What else ...

I have high masking autism! The primary way it effects my day to day life is requiring more time alone than most people, my brains recovery time is higher than most so a couple hours of alone time every evening is important for me to be able to function normally. I never want to come off as anti-social or rude, I love people! Just not all the time 🙂 On the bright side, this also means I will happily work independently for hours at a time if this is something that would suit your lifestyle. Other than that I don’t think there is much else to note for hosts, if you have any questions do not hesitate to ask!
