Description

Hi, I’m Dominika.

I’m a photographer and filmmaker focused on documenting how people live alongside nature. I travel slowly, try to get to know the places I stay, and help out where I can. In 2023, I did Workaways in Jordan and Turkey. I’m currently back on the road, continuing to learn through work and connection.

What I can help with:

Photography and film - for your place, project, or just memories
English tutoring- I teach online part-time
Gardening and general help around the house
Childcare
Social media
Arts and Crafts

I am keen to improve in and learn more about:
Farming, gardening, self-sufficiency, sustainability, building, environmental projects

Since graduating from the University of Cambridge in 2023, I’ve spent the past two years working with children and young people, travelling, and building experience as a photographer and filmmaker. I'm now focusing more on documentary work.

I was born in Canada, raised in Slovakia, studied in the UK, and I’m currently based in England. Living across different countries taught me to adapt quickly and stay curious. I want to keep learning, working, and meeting people wherever I go.

In my spare time I enjoy running, hiking, simply being active, being creative (drawing/painting etc), finding new music and good films and all that includes learning more about the world and of our place within it.

I am fluent in English and Slovak (both are my mother tongues) and would like to learn German better.

I enjoyed my stay at the camp. Khaled and his team were very hospitable and living in the desert for just under a week was a very unique experience. We were able to sleep outside under the stars and after work (mostly housekeeping/kitchen duty) had a lot of free time to explore both the red and white desert.

In the mornings and evenings we … read more
