  • Description

    Hi there, I'm Jess! I am 25-years-old and having decided to take a career break, I am looking for my next adventure.

    I am very active, love playing sports and doing anything outdoors. I currently live in Devon, UK so spend a lot of my free time exploring our beautiful coasts and Dartmoor, our National Park where I love to run, hike and find secret wild swim spots. The motto I live by is "you never regret a sea swim"!

    When I am not out and about, I love spending time with friends, especially cooking big meals to eat together. I am creative and love taking on new crafting projects. I have a degree in Psychology, and am fascinated in exploring and learning about new ways which could help improve how we view ourselves and the world around us.

    After living in a city for the past 8-years, and working a desk job for the last 5, I am looking to take some time to reconnect with myself in nature, whilst being able to help a worthwhile cause!

  • More details about your skills

    For the past five years, I’ve been working in a Food & Drink consultancy, helping businesses grow and connect with new customers. I’ve done everything from brainstorming business strategies to figuring out how to get products in front of the right people.

    I am experienced in running and organising events. I love working in a team, but also can work independently. I am computer literate and understand how to optimise social media. I am personable and able to chat to new people. I also have some experience waitressing, and whilst I’ve never worked as a chef, I love to bake a cake and am a keen cook!

    Alongside this I also really enjoy getting creative and working outdoors. I am a hard-worker, pick things up quickly and am always happy to jump in and help out with whatever needs doing.

  • What else ...

    I am excited to start a new chapter of my life where I can take the time to explore new places, meet interesting people and hopefully try and learn a bit more about myself!

    Last year I took just under a month out to travel up New Zealand in a van. I absolutely loved this experience of living so simply and waking up in nature everyday, and would love to have more experiences like this.
