Description

Hi, I’m Oliver! I’m a thoughtful, big-hearted & experienced traveler who loves to experience new cultures, outdoor adventures, and find home and new friends anywhere I am. I like to spend my free time reading, making art, surfing, diving, or camping on the beach, in the mountains & the outback. I’m an artist (dance, pottery, photography) & yoga teacher and in my past work life had several years experience in digital marketing!

I'm well-accustomed to communal living (lived in a co-operative house while I was at university) and did some previous workaways in 2018 in Europe. I’m currently embarking on The Big Lap and am looking for stays of a few days to a few weeks duration in order to have a chance to slow down, experience life in regional Australia (cities are fine too), and exchange my skills. I'm also eager to learn anything that will equip me for my dreams for the future of owning an intentional community / ecovillage / yoga & artist retreat on land with my best friends (the ones who I lived in a co-op with previously). I enjoy deep converations and look forward to learning what you're passionate about!

What else ...

Always happy to chat about the environment, local ecosystems, spirituality, authenticity and finding my path in the world. Love sharing food, a pot of tea, going on walks and exploring, and discovering local spots. At the same time, I'm very self-sufficient/independent and am happy to have quiet, solo time to myself, so I'm open to many different ways of connecting and just appreciate open & transparent communication!
