Description

hai !! I'm Dhia, traveling from Singapore to New Zealand from November 2025 - May 2026 ❈🧚🏻 I'm an exhibition / interior designer and am also a freelance henna artist!
I think of myself as a dreamer, someone who loves adventures, the feeling of being in nature and I believe in experiencing as much as I can in life; that the only person stopping yourself from achieving bigger things, and everything you desire, is yourself!

I've decided to take a HUGE leap by leaving my full-time job & doing a working holiday in NZ to learn more about myself, grow as a person, make meaningful connections with like-minded people & experience different cultures and ways of life. I truly believe life is so much more than a 9-5 job, especially when you are young or have the privilege of a choice to do more!! Did I mention that I'm a dreamer?

Some of my other goals during this experience would be pouring myself into making art & crafting; clay-making, glass lampworking, sewing, making jewelry, knitting / crochet, working on my junk journal, anything creative really!! I'd also love to read more, hike much more & focus on health (mentally & physically). It's really a time for self-healing.

I look forward to being a part of your way of life! I'm an ambivert so I do love a good conversation & joking around but also appreciate solo & quiet moments. I care about any work I do, small or big, I am adaptable to new situations and I'm empathetic; respecting people and their space / sanctuary.

More details about your skills

As a spatial designer & artist, I am a problem-solver, have a good eye for detail, anything spatial, practical or things to do with aesthetics! This could be anything from art projects, landscaping and gardening, to helping around the house. I also like to take photographs, videos, I can do simple editing or any admin-related tasks on the computer (I like to be organised if you need help with documents, sheets etc.!) I could also help with illustrations & artworks (digital & physical).

I do enjoy cooking & I'm happy to help or cook you a meal from my culture :) I also have some experience in teaching children art!

Since I'm used to working in a fast-paced environment, I'm a fast learner & am open to doing new things.

Side note, I have 3 cats and would be honoured to take care of your cat(s)

Age

23

What else ...

I have a thing for nostalgia, 70s to 2000s music, 2000s films & shows. I like board games, literature, LOVE astronomy (I can't wait to stargaze in NZ), obsessed with Alice in Wonderland, quite passionate about conspiracy theories & having a good chat about social issues and everything important! Or... just daydreaming.

I also prioritise personal growth so I want to learn new things, do new things, be useful and prove myself!
