Description

Hi I’m Selma!👋
I’m a Swedish/french girl who lives in Sweden and have recently finished my studies. Now I wish to learn and experience this world from different perspectives and places, which is how I came across Workaway. I believe its a amazing way to get a authentic experience to travel less as a tourist but more as a part of the locals.

I’m an artist who’s been studying art for 3 years. I love to create and express myself through my artworks. During holidays I’ve traveled to France where I have family. I love visiting new cities and learning about their history and people. Making new friends along the way has also been amazing.

As a person I’m always positive and hardworking. In my hometown Halmstad I have made many incredible friends who I hope to inspire by following my dreams of travelling the world (or atleast Europe for now). I like to think that nothing is impossible if you try your hardest.

So far I've done 3 very different workaways in Portugal, Italy and Greece. This has taught me lots of things and given me priceless experiences.
I hope that we too can get to know each other soon :)

More details about your skills

So where do I begin?
I’m an artist at heart and by training. I’ve been studying art for over three years, focusing on painting, sculpting, and drawing. I love creating things with my hands, whether it's on a canvas or with other materials. If you need help with any creative projects, I’d be thrilled to contribute! I’ve also taken photography classes and know how to handle a camera properly. I’ve done professional photo work for a company in the past.

I speak three languages fluently: English, French, and Swedish.

I have worked at a guesthouse with cleaning of the rooms but also at the bar in the restaurant-part of the guesthouse. The best thing about the job is being able to spread good energy while guests enjoy their meals. I’m quick on my feet, attentive to customers’ needs, and always greet everyone with a smile.

I also have experience working as a nanny, both professionally and for friends’ families, caring for children between the ages of 3 and 10. In italy I also worked full-time as an Aupair. I enjoy making kids laugh, inventing fun games, and hope to have children of my own one day.

Right now I'm working at a dogshelter in Greece. Here there is a lot of physical work. I love working with animals in the countryside. I’m no stranger to getting my hands dirty and would love to help out with anything animal ornfarm related.

What else ...

As I've been traveling on my own (more or less) for 4 months I'm good at organizing, taking initiative and being responsible over many aspects both personal and professional.

It's also taught me the beauty of the world and the people living around it.
