Description

Hello! I like to think of myself as easy going person with a positive mindset. I love meeting new people and learning about new cultures. I am driven and motivated to learn new things, whether it's building work, gardening, cooking, working independently or in team. I enjoy the outdoors and nature, it is where I can decompress and fully get to know myself. I am an artist, I like to paint and work with textiles and fibers- and love natural dying. Making art allows me to explore the limitless boundaries of creativity. Connecting myself to the outdoors, traveling, and and meeting new people inspires my work and gives myself purpose rather than gaining virtual connections through social media.

I consider myself very curious and I enjoy learning through direct experience rather than from a textbook. Meaningful and deep connections with people around the world are one of the things that I love the most and make me feel alive.

More details about your skills

I am a hard worker. Growing up, my parents had a small artisan bakery that me and my twin sister worked at until this recent year. My parents made breads and pastries from scratch, and I've always had a passion for baking and cooking. Over the years I I've learned how to garden, cook with the vegetables and herbs from our garden, and work hard to help the family business. Back home (Rhode Island, USA) we have several chickens and 2 goats that I help take care of often! I am motivated to learn new skills, and am a quick learner. I enjoy exercise, such as yoga, running, hiking, and dancing. I have some experience teaching English in Thailand, and love being around children.

What else ...

I love to bike and run. Recently I've gathered an interest in hiking and trail running, which I find to be a lot of fun! I love to create large scale colorful art, and explore new places as inspiration to my art. In general, I would love to work somewhere where I can explore the culture, make new friends, and work alongside people with the same passion of travel. I also want to learn more about how people live in different environments, and would like to gain as many new skills as I can.
