Description
I am Nishara and I come from the beautiful, sunny country of South Africa. I am young at heart and enjoy travelling, hiking, cooking , painting, mosaic arts and crafts, learning about different cultures and food and history. I have a very diverse professional background, I spent almost 10 years as a Flight Attendant, was an online TEFL Teacher and thereafter a career in Human Resources. I’m also a qualified Yoga Instructor and would love share this with the Workaway community.
I’m currently in Italy on a sabbatical and immediately available for a Workaway within 3 hours from Rome. I love children and socialising with people and have tons of experience baby sitting and interacting with children. I also love gardening and ever ready to dive in and get my hands dirty. -

More details about your skills
I am a qualified TEFL online Teacher to foreign students. I have amazing experience working with children including baby sitting. I am currently a small business owner of a mobile nail spa and previous to that I held a managerial position in Human Resources. My early background as a Flight Attendant, ingrained my love for travelling and meeting new people, learning about different cultures and food. I'm exceptionally organised, eloquently spoken, meticulous when it comes to cleanliness and I pride myself on being well groomed at all times.

What else ...
In my spare time I create succulent and fairy gardens and sometimes I attend markets where I sell my products. I also love playing scrabble, trivial pursuit or any game that stimulates me intellectually. I'm also a great poker player and in the past used to host and attend fun games.
