Travel information

I am currently

Description

I'm originally from Florida, but I'm currently living in Colorado. Having recently graduated from college in Florida, I'd like to spend a few years traveling before I continue my education.

I'm here seeking opportunities to expand what I may come to know about myself, other humans, and the world while helping give back in any way that I can. I'm looking for unique and challenging experiences that you wouldn't likely get from a resort getaway.


I'm open to many different types of jobs including farm work, childcare, creative projects, living communities, sustainability projects, animal care, teaching, and outdoor adventure. Whatever may give me the opportunity to completely immerse myself in a new way of being is something that I'm interested in.

More details about your skills

I'm maybe most experienced working with and teaching children from the ages of 8 to16. I've worked at several off the grid summer camps for four summers teaching watersports, driving ski boats, and living in the cabin with the campers. I have no issue not having internet access or luxury accommodations for long periods of time.

I've taught a couple different yoga and meditation classes.

I have lots of experience in creative projects involving painting- specifically murals but also general painting projects.

I grew up on a farm and have many years of experience with all sorts of animals and gardening. I'm not afraid to get muddy or sweaty, and I've never met a tree I couldn't climb.

I'm also willing to do general house chores such as cleaning, laundry, cooking, and yard work. I am in good physical shape, and I love some manual labor.

I have 2 years of bartending and over 5 years of serving experience. I'm a very socialable person which has helped me excel in the hospitality industry. I genuinely love getting to know and taking care of people.

I am completely open to being taught any new skill that you specifically need if you'd be willing to show me!

What else ...

My favorite things to do are wakeboarding, snowboarding, painting, cooking, reading, writing, swimming, surfing, yoga, meditating, cooking, spending time in nature, and meeting new people. More than anything else, I love to laugh with people and get to know them.

I recently got my degree in philosophy and law, so I love reading and talking about them both. I'd like to get my masters degree in social work, but I'd like to expose myself to as many different walks of life as possible before deciding on one thing.

For the past year, I've been bartending at an upscale cocktail bar in Boulder, CO. I have been in the service industry part time since I was 15 years old, so I have an extensive background in hospitality/ food service.
