  • Description

    I am a 28 year old woman currently living in Bratislava, where I studied ceramic design during my high school years. I then continued my education at university, with English and Polish as the languages of instruction. I worked remotely for two years as an admissions officer for an Australian language school. To sum it up, I would say my English is quite decent.

    To add to my work experience, I spent 10 years working at Subway, so my customer service skills are excellent. You wouldn’t believe some of the situations I had to handle, haha. (working night shifts until 4 am and dealing with drunk customers was quite a challange) I also worked for a year in a bakery, not as a baker but more as a kitchen assistant, where I helped prepare a variety of dishes, from soups and pestos to pizzas. However, our main focus was on preparing fillings for focaccias and decorating them to ensure the final presentation looked immaculate.

    Working in a kitchen included cleaning A LOT haha.

    I have a few other experiences in the kitchen where I worked during holidays/summer.

    As for my free time and other skills, I have a cottage in the Slovak mountains that I’m currently renovating, so I’ve picked up some basic carpentry skills. Just to be clear, they really are quite basic, but I’m hardworking and eager to learn more! It’s a project that’s very close to my heart and something I plan to prioritize once I return from my travels.

    I do like to read, write and paint as for my other activities. I LOVE hiking. And walking. I do prefer easy hikes, but I did some basic via ferrata. In August 2026, I'm planning on doing Camino de Santiago for the second time, I'm really excited about that.

    I've travelled quite a bit, most of my trips in my early 20's were hitchhiking which I'm not keen on doing anymore as I got older and a bit scared. I have quite a bit of cool stories down my sleeve and I would love to hear yours!

    All in all, I’d love to help out around your house, whether it’s gardening, cooking, feeding animals, or assisting with any renovation projects you have going on. Feel free to ask me anything if you'd like to clarify my previous experience or get a better sense of whether we’d be a good fit in terms of working together.
