Description

Hello Global Community!

This is my first time in Workaway! I have recently made the decision to spend the next 12 months visiting new places, living with communities and exploring sacred cultures and ways of life that are in harmony with the natural world.

I am originally from Greece and I have been living in UK for the last 23 years! So... it is defo time for a big change in my life! I would absolutely love to work with the land, herbs and plants, animals, ngo's, as well as try out some of the eco-building projects! What I may lack in practical hands-on experience, I make up by being a fast and very dedicated learner!

My background
In my "earlier" life I used to work in the corporate world with a lot of experience in all aspects of HR, Training Design & Delivery, and Business Process Improvement. My practical skills also include event management, marketing material production, general accounting and business admin, wix website, etc. So I do come in very handy if you need some business related assistance with your project ;)

At the same time, I have spent more than the last decade studying, practicing and working as a shamanic (and soul) healing practitioner drawing inspiration from the toltec, andean and celtic traditions as well as the feminine path of spirituality. I am trained in a number of different healing modalities incl. crystal healing, reiki, rebozo massage, etc. Ultimately it all comes together under the sacred intention of supporting others reconnect with their deepest and most authentic parts of Self through their own innate heart wisdom.

A few words about me...
"Open and playfully curious to explore new possibilities" would be a good tagline to describe me as a person! I love the outdoors, singing dancing drumming by the fire, swimming under the stars, and generally being at one with nature.
At the same time, I am a great listener and a deep thinker who enjoys getting her hands "dirty" working with soil as well as learning new dyi skills!
