Description
Hey, I'm Paula. I am looking for a good balance between city life and a more rural life. So I though this winter I escape the coldest and greyest months and travel to Turkey. I work and study in the field of film, animation and media design and do some of my work remotely, which allows me to travel for longer periods of time. (Well, I'm trying out this concept this winter, so we'll see how it goes.) I love many things, music, art, gardening, reading, biking, swimming, most recently also climbing, and just being outside in nature a lot. I like cooking (and eating) vegan food, having deep conversations and learning about new perspectives on life. I enjoy simple and calm moments as well as a bit of hussel and energie from time to time. I am always open to new things, curious and willing to learn, but I also like sharing about my knowledge and perspectives.

I was at Ilectras, Joyce and Vassilis place for two weeks in the beginning of September, and the simultaneous wildness of the land and warmth of the people that I met there have made some really special and wonderful memories. I think, that the idea Ilectra has about the place works out really well. There is a constant mix of community living,… read more

I'm really happy that I decided to host one last workawayer in 2022 and that it was Paula! I was heavily pregnant and a bit limited, and she was really easy to live with, an amazing cook, and and able to work independently when needed! An at least someone used the piano!

I had a very good time at Charlotte's place. She is a very determined person, so no matter if a project is difficult, she finds a way to do it, which is very cool. I also got to know and work with some new power tools, which I really enjoyed. The food was always good, also thanks to the previous Workawayers who have shared their cake recipes with… read more

It was a very beautiful and inspiring time that I could spend at Maria's place. Maria is is a very warm, openminded and energetic person and always manages to have lots of other nice people around like her family, friends or Workaways:) together with the other Workawayers we mainly worked on projects around the house. But there was also enough… read more
