Description

Hi, I'm Alana :)

I'm a traveller from Australia with a passion for the arts, community and new experiences. I'm currently travelling around Europe and trying to find a place and community to call home.

One of my goals whilst travelling is to improve my skills in art, so I'm super keen to soak up as much inspiration, new knowledge and ideas as possible. I'm very community-driven, so I live for new conversation, perspective or experience. I love hiking, exploring new places, and anything creative or new to me!

I'd love to get involved in some community and creative projects, and connect with new and interesting people :)

I'm multifaceted and excited to help in any way I can (experience detailed below) -

I have multiple years' of experience working in hospitality, specifically as a bartender and Functions & Events coordinator. I also have 8 months of experience working across multiple hostels, as a social host, receptionist and housekeeper. Customer service is definitely a strong point of mine.

Back home, I've been a strongly rated au-pair, pet-sitter and tutor. I have experience working with and training reactive animals, specifically dogs. I understand how to care for pets and the responsibility it holds. I've received great reviews for my services and would absolutely love to be involved in the care of animals again. My experience in tutoring ranges from ages 6-18, specifically in maths and science, though I would be happy to teach English as well. I've also been a babysitter and an Au-Pair for a combined 5 or 6 months. I connect super well with kids, and have worked with infants, primary school children, and teenagers. I take pride in my care and love to create a good experience for all parties involved.

I am not afraid to get my hands dirty! If you need someone to garden, to rip up tiles, or any other odd jobs, I am confident that I am a good pick! I've done some work landscaping, cleaning/fixing up trailers and cars, and some gardening.
