Description

Hello!



I'm Sara, a 22 year old Finnish 1/4german, girl.

I lived the first 16 years of my life in forest, in a national park with my family.

Then I applied to study in an arts-oriented secondary school in a little city. I did not much enjoy formal education, sitting still and the Grey city life. I think i like to work in fresh air with nice people. I love a whimsical community and singing around a campfire.

After high school I wanted to see the world and I worked and packed my stuff and then at 19 I embarked for my first backpacking trip. Many new experiences, and found friends such as my best friend and travel partner Agueda, with whom we made our first hitchhiking trip, and that we have done every summer since.

We traveled months at a time, then coming back home, where I started studying literature. After some difficulties of my own, I felt I couldn't study anymore, and last winter worked for a while on a construction site and went to travel again. We lived in caves in Tenerife like hippies.

I have now started a circus school in Finland to become a professional circus artist. The school will take 3 years. In summertime I am free to travel!


I'm currently also interested in learning herbs and forest.
I am interested in eco building projects, and learning about boat building.


I have ADHD, which both challenges and helps me. It makes me more sensitive to tiredness and hunger, which is why it's important for me to eat and sleep enough and follow a rhythm. It's also hard for me to focus on one thing at a time, if there are other distractions, but once I do, I can get hyperfixated, and do one task for hours long.
I try to improve my ability to focus by meditation, so pardon me if im sometimes a little mechanic on that :D Im still learning to switch the focusmode on and off. :) I unfortunately get easily overloaded with loud noises, and might need a long time to recharge if that happens.

I enjoy a good laughter and working outside especially in a group together with others.

I can cook basic vegetarian.

I really love to teach any of these things, such as circus and drawing.

In my free time i also enjoy practicing circus, writing, painting, drawing, filming, reading books, learning new things, such as music that is a totally new world to me. I hope i can create some art on your project!


Despite of some Finnish shyness, I'm starting to think im extrovert, because i love to bond with people.

I dont really drink or use substanses and i prefer to connect with people without them!! :))

Unfortunately due to IBS i have to follow quite a complicated diet where i don't use gluten, dairy products, or beans and such, but if there are bananas, oranges, rice, potatoes or oats, and soy or eggs, i should be fine.
I can cook separately for myself and others!! Let me just first get comfortable in your kitchen, though :)

I know something about cooking, but my repertuar could be wider. I'm currently interested in learning medicinal plants.

love arts! I'm getting back to aerial acrobatics after a 7 years of break, and I can teach what I know about acrobatics.

I have previous work experience on a construction site, in a circus (trapeze artist), and as a leader at a children’s nature camp. I have also been part of many different art programs, camps and in festival organizing and customer service. Also street performances we can make happen.
