  • Description

    Hello!! Thank you for looking at my profile :) hopefully I seem a good match to come and experience some of life with you. My name is Olivia, 25 years old and I'm an open hearted, adventurous, nature enthusiast from Hampshire, England. I started my traveling journey in South and Central America for 8 months with my brother Harry back in 2022. Here I taught English staying with a beautiful family in Columbia as well as working in hostels along the way in Nicaragua. Our memories became much richer when meeting some wonderful people and families along the way through ABSORBING ourselves in community spirit...

    I have done a lot of travelling around Europe, Central and South America, India, Nepal, Sri Lanka and other countries. The only way I can continue to travel this beautiful globe however is through meeting wonderful people such as yourselves by living and working amongst those willing to exchange stories and love - as to me this is the only way to REALLY travel.

    An enthusiast of life, qualified yoga teacher and keen practitioner of meditation, breathwork, hiking and gardening. I am keen to help around the house, teach basic English and Maths, cook, farm, clean, walk dogs - you name it I will give it a go! I have been a Drama teacher for nearly a year now alongside teaching English as a foreign language, I also have very strong online ‘sales/marketing’ experience too!!

    As a flexible and open minded woman I am open to extending stays or changing up the workload to suit you.


    We can't wait to meet you and share some stories ✨🦋🌅💭

    More details about my language interests
    I am really keen to enhance what basic Spanish I already know. Either through classes or a home stay we just want to feel more comfortable in having conversational Spanish.

  • More details about your skills

    As mentioned above I obtained my 200hr Yoga Teacher Training Certification in Pokhara, Nepal in 2023, then went onto teach Hatha classes for 2 months on the East coast of Sri Lanka soon after. I am a keen gardener back home and have helped decorate our house e.g painting walls and up cycling old furniture.

    I have worked in an English speaking school for nearly a year teaching Drama to pupils aged 11-18 back in 2021. I have also taught in foreign schools both in the UK for 2 months during summer holidays and in Columbia as a Workawayer for 1 month. I am a patient worker and tentative listener. A great hobby of mine is cooking - I love exploring new dishes and experimenting with flavours. I am very fit, am a daily walker and big hiker back in the UK. I am strong and can lift heavy items around the house and I also have been doing yoga and combining this with the gym for many years now.

    I LOVE to play cards ... could play cards all day long! I own a dog back home so animals are a plus for us! I enjoy long walks and being outdoors in the sunshine.
