Description
Hello future friends!
I am a young sustainability consultant with a huge appetite for personal growth and new, grounding experiences. After two years working remotely behind a computer, I cannot wait to get my hands dirty, reconnect with the natural environment and the kind people that enjoy its beauty!
Having travelled extensively in the last 10 years, I am passionate about getting to know new people, places, culture, ecosystems and food! And I have really missed that in the past few years, so that makes me even hungrier to go back out there!
I am a very active person, loving outdoor sports and adventures! As a keen hiker, I am always up for a good trail, and would absolutely love to rekindle with my inner childhood/teenage horsegirl who used to spend every waking hour at the stables. I practice yoga daily, and try to live as consciously and respectfully of society and the planet as possible!
In terms of skillsets, I am a consultant and project manager at my core, but am looking to do more manual, practical work through my workaway experience. I would love to learn more about permaculture/working the land, growing my own food, and work with animals.
Looking forward to meeting you all!Interests

I have years of experience working in a stable and with horses (I might be a bit rusty, but a quick learner/refresher).
I don't shy away from manual work and work with the land, animal care, feeding and handling, and can learn my way quickly around crafty tasks like fixing fences, building plots for vegetable gardens, etc.
I am an excellent project manager, and regularly support organisations with copywriting/translating content, developing concepts, etc.
I speak many languages and am always happy to share that knowledge with others.Age
