Travelling
Description
Hi!
I am a passionate environmentalist, naturalist, animal lover, and artist. I'm very adventurous, open-minded, and am always looking for new experiences and perspectives. I am originally from the mountains of Colorado but just graduated from the University of California Santa Cruz with a degree in environmental studies. I just completed my 200-hour yoga teacher training in Rishikesh, India as well as my level 3 sound healing certification. I love to travel yet this will be my first time traveling truly independently (without school or a host family) and I am hoping work away will be a great way for me to make new connections and learn about others, the environment, and myself.

More details about your skills
I have a degree in environmental studies and during school mainly focused on agroecology, environmental justice, animal conservation, and restoration. I took two quarter-long field courses that gave me hands-on experience in the field with plants, animals, and the greater environment. I have worked in animal care at an animal hospital as well as a doggy daycare. I also interned at a restoration site where I got hands-on experience with planting, land maintenance, and greenhouse work. I have years of customer service experience so know how to be outgoing as well. In high school, I worked as a junior counselor at summer camps so I have experience teaching and caring for children.
Additionally, I grew up traveling and have experience learning about different cultures and immersing myself in new perspectives and lifestyles. I am also an artist, I mostly draw and paint and would love to share this creativity with others. I will also be a certified yoga teacher by the time I'll be doing work away and would love to share this practice with others as well. I am a flexible hard worker and like to stay positive and open-minded.
