Travel information

I am currently

Description

I am just finishing up a work placement with a NGO on the Thai-Myanmar border and am looking for my next stop! I am interested in learning new skills and sharing stories, experiences and time with others.

I have worked in the charity field for three years now and love the connections and fulfillment it brings me. Rewarding work is the best way I can think to spend my time and efforts.

I spend a lot of my time exploring innate creativity and connection with people. I have a passion for hosting and bringing people together for meals, games and conversation. I love the peace of the outdoors, hiking and being in nature. I have been told many times that I am a great cook and adore being in the kitchen.
