    Travelling

  • Description

    HI! I am a young traveller trying to compromise my desire for new experiences, people, and adventures with the human need for a little consistency and stability every once in a while. I have lived life as both a spontaneous traveller and a relatively settled expat, and often crave a little bit of both, so I often look for longer stays. I really enjoy projects working directly in nature or with animals, however I get along with people too. A huge part of travelling for me is the cultural experience, so I prefer opportunities to engage closely with new cultures and to learn new skills. I also want to share everything I can and all the random skills I've picked up along the way.

    Scuba diving: I teach scuba diving courses and love to be in the ocean. It is my main occupation when I am not travelling.

    Gardening/farming: I have cared for my own garden and have experience volunteering on small-scale farms. I have created various types of compost pits. I have a little experience with construction.

    Food: I love cooking! I am a vegetarian, but actually have a lot of experience preparing meat for animals. I love being creative in the kitchen, and also have a lot of experience using herbs, oils, and other natural products to create personal hygiene products

    Teaching English: I have worked for 4+ years as an English teacher in various capacities, including one-on-one tutoring, classroom settings, primary school-university, academic reading and writing specialty, and IELTS test prep

  • What else ...

    I try to keep an open mind and I realize nothing is ever as we expect it to be. I am down to take risks and try new things. Remote living, sleeping outside, using a compost toilet, or getting dirty don't bother me!
