I am currently

Activities i am interested in:

Imagining me horse riding in the mountains, reading close to a body of water, or sharing a meal with new people I have just connected with, would be my dream day!

Description

I am a Portuguese soul that finds purpose in conscious travel: I have backpacked across the South East Asia, and lived previously in the Swiss alps and Australian coast.

Currently I work remotely and independently as a consultant for impact ventures, NGOs and international regenerative projects. I help them grow sustainably through aligned fundraising and story telling. I consider myself an holistic business and life coach, and an advocate for climate-led initiatives.

My passions resonate with all earth related interests: from gardening, to organic produce farming, horse riding and connecting with animals, herb hunting and curating tea recipes, harvesting season in the fall ... you name it. I appreciate a good routine that allows me time to enjoy the early morning, read a book by the lake and support how I can the ones that choose to take me in.

I am more than happy to hear about what is needed, and would love to connect and share lovely moments during my stay :))

What else ...

I have a lot of hobbies and usually I can’t be still with only one. Mostly into sports, a volleyball player and surfer myself. You can always see me with music and I used to play guitar and ukulele :) From time to time I put my creativity to the test and draw a little bit or make some digital collages. I love analog photography and old camcorders - just an overall enthusiast for the old times with vinyl record playing in the background! I’ve been wanting to get my hands in gardening for a while so will be happy if I can learn that in one of my workaway opportunities. Since a kid, I’ve been passionate about marine life and animals in general :))
