  • Description

    Tēna koe/ kōrua/ koutou,

    A bit about me below -

    It excites me being able to move around broadening my experiences, meeting new people, sharing stories, sharing kai, knowledge and nature. My happy place is outdoors where I can be in sync with the suns hours, get dirt under my nails and talk to the animals. Emerging myself in water is how I transition between things, whether it is the ocean, river or a shower, it calms and recentres me.

    My recent movements have been around Te Tai Tokerau - Northland, NZ, I have been exploring and curious to experience and expand my knowledge of earth building methods. I have recently left the Architecture/Design industry and am interested to learn different ways of building, designing and how different cultures connect and acknowledge the land. I have a passion for visual arts and creative forms of expression so would love to connect will workaway hosts that align.

    Mā te wā,

    Em

    I have recently left a job as an architectural graduate to enable me to step away from the computer and start using my hands and touch material rather than paper. I have a masters in Architecture and 3 years experience in industry. I am interested in learning about permaculture, organic farming, the opportunity to use natural building materials such as earth building, connecting with animals, shared creativity, arts projects and how to be a kaitiaki of Aotearoa.
