Description
Hi, I’m Michaela from Bratislava. I’ve worked in Online Marketing and photography for years, but right now I am at a crossroads. My goal is to work in Norway to save up and eventually fulfill my own off-grid dream. I am using this time as a break point to get out of the office and back into the physical shape I need for the demanding work ahead.
I am first and foremost a hiker and a traveller who values slow travelling and deep connection with a place. My dream destination is the Azores, as I am drawn to the spirit of the mountains, forests, and raw nature. While exploring Asia, South America or Europe, I was always looking for authentic experiences.
I am a very handy person and a DIY enthusiast. I love permaculture, sustainable living, and working with my hands. Movement has always been part of my life; I was a dancer as a child, and today I love hiking and cycling. I am not afraid of manual labour – in my early twenties, I already worked as a housekeeper in Norway, so I know what it takes. While I am currently working on improving my fitness, I am highly motivated to get my hands dirty, work at a steady pace, and help with tasks which needs support.
I have a 500-hour Yoga Teacher Training from Nepal, practiced Tai-chi and Kundalini yoga, and completed a Vipassana meditation retreat. These experiences gave me the mental discipline to stay focused and persistent. I am an animal lover, eat mostly vegetarian/vegan, and I’m deeply interested in nature's spirit.
I am happy to help with whatever is needed and I am very open to our co-creation and collaboration.
