Travel information

I am currently

Activities i am interested in:

I love farmstays and hostel workaways. A beach would be lovely...

Description

I love sunshine and rain, summer breezes and forest paths. I feel nourished in good company, with good music and good food. I like to dig my hands in to work that needs doing. I appreciate kindness, generosity and trust. I love a good laugh.

The road is my love, always drawing me back into its embrace. I feel most at home in the top bunk of a hostel dormitory. I love making new friends and sharing adventures. I’ve lived and worked in diverse places such as Kazakhstan and Hong Kong, and done work trades in many places across the globe. I enjoy farm work, elder care, au paire and hospitality.

I previously worked at a spa. I prepared the herbal baths, decocting the herbs and facilitating a healing space. I also greeted and checked in guests, onboarded new staff and ensured a welcoming environment!

Now I work in a Youth Development Program supporting high potential, barrier-facing youth gain job skills and life skills! It's a truly rewarding experience.

I look forward to putting my skills and experience to work to meet your goals!
