I'm passionate about discovering new cultures and inspired by people who take bold steps. I want to contribute where I can, grow through experience and be part of meaningful projects

Description

I’m a creative all-rounder who loves writing, video-making, vegan cooking and meeting new people. I enjoy DIY, sewing and creating cosy spaces, and I stay active with walking, pilates and attend handstand classes! I’m an animal lover with experience in looking after most domestic pets (and former parrot keeper!), I’m currently studying digital marketing part time. I’m friendly, open-minded and happy to help wherever I’m needed. I joined workaway to find like minded people who can exchange with me anything to do with eco living, house keeping, renovation, animal care, creating nice spaces in the garden or home, farming, yoga, vegan cooking and all things holistic or environmental.

More details about your skills

I bring a diverse mix of skills from a very varied career. I started out as an actor and dancer, which taught me creativity, adaptability and confidence in new environments. From there, I moved into charity work, spending several years in frontline roles supporting people experiencing homelessness and individuals with long-term health conditions. This gave me strong communication skills, empathy and the ability to stay calm and practical in challenging situations.

I later gained a Level 4 qualification in Animal Healing and built my own small business working with a wide range of animals, offering energy work and support with behavioural issues. I’m comfortable handling and caring for many types of animals, including more sensitive or nervous ones.

I also trained as a careers advisor and coach, helping young people with career planning, confidence building and life choices , so I’m experienced in guidance, mentoring and supportive communication.

Right now, I’m studying digital marketing part-time because my long-term goal is to combine creativity with meaningful projects. I’d love to help hosts with content creation, social media, storytelling, branding or anything that helps their project become more visible and successful.

But overall, I’m adaptable, eager to learn, and happy to contribute my skills wherever they’re most useful.

What else ...

I enjoy card games, board games and back gammon. I like making things from craft kits, like candles, soap, wind chimes, lamp shades. I really enjoy using my hands and I find chopping vegetables really therapuetic!
