Description

Warm greetings to you, dear reader!
So thankful, that workaway with all you amazing hosts exists.

I am very close to realizing a dream that is almost my age: setting foot on the African continent. In November, I will be on Zanzibar, in broader Tanzania and possibly Kenya. Keen to connect with other travellers and locals. Seeking nature immersion, dance, live music and conversations about life.

The past couple of years have been full of change. From a Bachelor in Economics, Communication and Culture (more than 10 years ago), to the worlds of design, clothing, art and their intersections, to bodywork and nature.

After living in cities for some years, I developed this strong urge for a closer connection to nature and in general: a less-alienated, less domesticated life.

On that quest, I did a variety of jobs, moved a lot and came across many places, offering my help: an animal shelter, meditation center, different yoga places in Turkey, Greece, India, France.

I am fascinated by all things body and am trained in yoga, dance and massge. Currently I am enrolled in a psycho somatic sensual healing practitioner course. Happy to tell you more in person :) Bringing relaxation and beauty to the world is very dear to me.

I spent a good amount of time working as a project manager for an artist collective and other cultural initiatives. Not long ago, I helped
running a cultural platform, founded a non profit association and opened a little café - until realizing again: the cities are not doing it for me.
At the very moment, I am working at a mountain hotel in Switzerland to fund my dream :)

I love enjoying and seizing beautiful moments, good food & cooking, taking good care of the people surrounding me.

With 36 and a wee bit of life experience, I adapt easily. I am empathic, easy-going, curious, respectful and organised.

I am hungry for people and encounters. Getting to know like-minded, open, non-judgemental spirits, observe the various ways of communication, understanding different perspectives on the world.

Until soon?

Kind regards, love and peace
Lou
