Description

Hello! I am a poet/content creator/artist of all sorts, doing my best to live a life that inspires me. Most of the jobs I have worked have been people oriented, and I am looking forward to bringing my communication skills to wherever I end up.

In response to what motivates me and brings me happiness:
I try to live a rich life. To me that means rich in experiences, and relationships, and I am hoping to add to my "wealth" by traveling the world, picking up new skills, learning languages, and meeting interesting people. Lots of things bring me happiness, and I am always adding to the list. The most foundational things to me would be expressing myself through writing, or by moving my body, but I try to find happiness in the little things as well. I try to practice noticing all of the good things that surround me, and that are abundant in the world.

More details about your skills

I have worked as a personal trainer/fitness coach with ages 10 and up, I have worked as a field guide in wilderness therapy with teenagers going through various mental struggles, I have worked in behavioral health with teenagers that have mental disabilities and are prone to violent outbursts. I have worked a few other odd jobs which include physical labor, customer service, and driving, but the first three are most relevent in my opinion.

through these jobs, the skillset that I am most proud to have developed includes:
-maintaining a calm nervous system in extremely stressful environments, and working well with others in said environments.
- understanding the needs of those around me, and how to help, encourage, or coach in order to get their needs met
-communicating well through conflict, whether it involves me, or if I am a mediator
-basic survival skills in a wilderness setting

I also have been writing poetry and prose for 10 years, and would be interested in using this skillset, but I have never written professionally

What else ...

I eat the same amount as two people. I am happy to buy and cook my own food, or supplement accommodations with my own food. if you are happy to accommodate my extra appetite, thankyou! but regardless, it is important to me to be on the same page about what the food arrangement is.

It is more important to me to find a work exchange that I am happy with, than to visit a specific country. the world is full of people I can learn from, and I'm just hoping to find the right ones.

I have so many hobbies and interests it is impossible to list them all. If I could put them in broader categories it would be art, athletics, and adventure/ outdoors. I'm excited to explore the nature wherever I end up!
