Description

**for potential hosts**

please do not contact me without reading my profile, many thanks! :)



Friendly, warm and relaxed individual who loves being outside and exploring and frolicking in nature. I enjoy the company of adults and playing with children and animals.

I value a simple lifestyle and am happiest when I can have a mix of both social and solitary, and ideally I can have my own space, with a desk, and is separate from family/ group of volunteers- this allows me to maintain the balance of social and indépendant needs.

I adore eating eating fresh foods and where I can be in nature and near water ( I love being able to bathe and swim in either the ocean or a river). Id love to visit workaways that have access to trails be it day walks or otherwise, I love to walk every day.If you made it this far please put the word 'tiramasu' in your message so I know you've arr had a good read



Some things that I'm interested in( but in no means limited too!) building cobb/ clay/mud houses etc, other building and construction in general, social justice, organic/ regenerative farming, sailing, working with horses, pottery/ceramics, cheesemaking, basket weaving , ceramics, mosiac... and more!

I'm really looking to learn, and so not only am I happy to Potter in your garden and do things I'm comfortable and knowledgeable in, but I want to learn more about any of the above mentioned skills/interests. Please let me know what you can offer me :)



I'm interesting in most kinds of projects but am not looking to be a sole carer of someones kids- I'm so happy to help out/play/share and to be around kids, I really enjoy their company, and love to play,but don't want to be a sole carer for the whole time of my stay, but happy with a mix.

I'm currently in Australia for a couple of months visiting family, but will return to Denmark ( then Norway, and Europe in general as of June)
