Description
Hello ⋆｡𖦹 ˚ 𓇼 ˚｡⋆
My name is Annika
I work teaching young people art, like sewing, weaving and natural dyeing. I also work in fashion, mending and embroidering clothes for designers.
I love making fires, hiking, communal meals, and swimming!
I have led workshops organized group shows and planned long term arts curriculum. I have experience in light carpentry, I can use a drill, a chop saw and other power tools. I'd enjoy learning more alternative and sustainable building techniques. I excel in organizing people and physical spaces. I am learning more about gardening permaculture and farming. I was born and raised in NYC, and have always fought to maintain a strong connection to the natural world .
I am also a dancer, and I practice yoga, qi gong and somatic based mediation.
Workaway has been a way for me to explore/experience the different ways people create a life for themselves outside of conventional society. Plant wisdom, being autonomous in resources like water and food, creating a place for people to gather. I'd love to continue learning more about living by the land, and helping like-minded folks with their brave visions.
I am kind responsible and mature. To every task I bring care, presence and a deep focus.
