  • Description

    I'm a 27 year old backpacker from the north of England, on a career break from the healthcare tech/data sector, looking for opportunities to form unique connections with others, share skills and stories, and explore new parts of the world!

    I've recently completed a 6 month solo backpacking trip around Southeast Asia, and have been living and working in West Australia on a working holiday VISA. I have a bunch of hobbies from textile crafts (embroidery & crochet), to journalling, yoga, irish dancing, and scuba diving. I absolutely love being outside to make the most of my day, and love meeting people from across the globe.

  • More details about your skills

    I've worked professionally as a data analyst/scientist, so would be experienced in supporting with IT related support or admin roles! In my personal life, I absolutely love gardening and would love to volunteer outdoors should I have the opportunity.

    I'm the oldest of 2 siblings, one of which has profound disability so I am experienced in caring for others. I also volunteered for a charity supporting the elderly so I'm great at facilitating conversations, making cups of tea, and generally running errands.

    27

  • What else ...

    I really enjoy any everyday activities that give people the opportunity to take time away from a screen, such as board games (I'm more than happy to teach you to play some!), hiking, or crafts. I love yoga, performing arts and I've been a rescue scuba diver for a few years. I absolutely love trying new things and feel my goal in life is to experience as much as possible!

    I'm really interested in psychology and mental health as a topic, having completed an undergraduate in Psychology and having an interest in hopefully pursuing a career as a therapist in the future.
