  • Description

    Greetings,

    Warm welcome to my profile. :)

    Introducing myself as a person with a love for travel, spirituality, nature, creativity, fellow beings (or becomings) and learning. Open-minded and easy to get along with, however I do also enjoy times of solitude and am a very value-based person, not so great with small-talk when it comes to friendships and personal connections.

    Up till this point, I have traveled to approximately 30 countries and am looking to return to that phase, as it does open up a lot of doors in developing yourself, chances for connecting and taking upon challenges - becoming better.

    Also, as the world is undergoing major shifts I am particularly interested in meeting spiritual people with heightened awareness, self-sustainable communities and nature-lovers.

    I am used to physical work, am overall fit, healthy and energetic. I have worked as an entrepreneur for years in sports, so am rather innovative when it comes to finding solutions in different tasks. Other than that, I love taking care of animals, am a trustworthy house-sitter, and generally conscious when it comes to other peoples homes.

    Overall, I have a wide range of working experiences, here are some examples:

    Sport:
    - Research
    - Personal coaching / performance optimization
    - Small group training
    - Group classes
    - Business management
    - Social media
    - Content (writing) for websites etc.
    - (Workplace) Health Promotion

    Other:
    - Building maintenance
    - Painting, waxing floors etc., cleaning
    - Animal care (horses, dogs, cats, birds, snails (lol).
    - Stable work
    - Customer service, receptions, secreterial work etc.

    I completed Workaway during spring 2022 for the first time, on my 5 month travel, and enjoyed the experience a lot! What an awesome adventure.

    I speak English, Finnish, and a tiny bit of Swedish + very little Spanish, and would love to learn more languages in the future! Especially Spanish.

    As for workaway place, I do need a private room and stable internet connection (for now), as I will have some meetings, and do slight work for my project online (I may hold some training sessions etc.). I prefer longer stays with like-minded people... Basically, I am not interested in party scenes as an ongoing stay.

    Hosts and workawayers; feel free to write me, if you get the slightest feeling, that we would make a good team. ❤

    Generally open towards different destinations and ideas. 🤗

    All the best,

    Ruth
