  • Description

    Hey, I'm Alina, I'm an artist (drawing/painting) and am crazy about anything and everything to do with the outdoors and nature and animals! My goal this year is do my PADI scuba diving license and see as much marine life as possible. I would love to spend my time as a Workawayer working on marine or forest or wildlife conservation projects and have absolutely no problem getting my hands dirty. On the other hand, I'm super happy to help with art projects or behind the bar or as a gardener. (Having worked as a professional equestrian I can also horse ride, and being an artist and doing a lot of side jobs, I can bartend and make lots of delicious cocktails! )
    I grew up in Germany around horses, dogs and chickens and running around fields and forests before moving to London to study fine art, but I really miss nature! Community, animals, art, self-sufficient living, hiking, helping humans and non-humans and nature, taking care of our precious environment are things I am passionate about.

  • More details about your skills

    I have extensive experience most areas of hospitality, especially bartending and some cheffing. I am super sociable and enjoy meeting new people and helping out in general.
    I have worked as an equestrian and have been riding horses since I was born. I love them and have a lot of experience working with horses, also groundwork and working equitation and spent a lot of years working with abused dressage horses and building trust and forming a sustainable and beautiful connection with them. They are still deep in my heart.
    I have worked as a gardener before and love plants, so happy to plant and trim and clean up whatever needs.
    First and foremost however, I am an artist working a lot from observation. So whatever art projects you got, send them my way! ;D
    I do a lot of exercise, so would say am pretty fit and anything that you can do with your hands, I am all for it!
