Description
I am an enthusiastic, open-minded and hardworking individual. Having new experiences makes me feel alive. I am passionate about nature and feel a deep connection to it. I have always found refuge in nature from the chaos of life, especially growing up in London which I really struggled with. Nature has given me so much and continues to teach me about myself and about what it means to be alive and present. This inspires my art- I have just graduated from University of Brighton with a painting degree, this is my other great passion. I equally love playing guitar and singing and have always cherished music's ability to bring people together. I am social and enjoy talking to people, hearing their stories and forming connections. My father is French and my mother is Australian (from Sydney) but I have always lived in the uk. I spent a lot of time in France growing up, discovering the culture, land and meeting family, but not so much in Australia. I am coming to Australia for 4 months to discover this part of myself, and to feel closer to my mother and grandmother. I am excited to be immersed into a different culture and to explore the nature, to learn and meet new people!

More details about your skills
I am outgoing, dynamic and enthusiastic, and thrive in situations where I can engage and work with people. I am a fast learner and enjoy learning new skills and having new experiences.
The last three years I studied Fine Art Painting at university of Brighton. It was the most incredible experience, particularly the last year where I was painting 6 days a week for 10-12 hours a day. Having finished my degree I put on a solo exhibition which was challenging but a fantastic experience. From my experience at uni, I would frequently use power tools, fill walls, paint floors, saw wood and build (I would saw and build my own canvases which sometimes were as big as 210cm x 180cm.) I am eager to learn more!
I can help with any creative endeavors you may need help with, from painter/decorator, to sewing, to painting murals for you.
I also have experience working in an outdoor context teaching children about the forest. I worked at the outdoor nursery Little Forest Folk as an outdoor educator before lockdown. This required high levels of energy and enthusiasm in order to keep the kids engaged and interested. I loved this work and I love being around children as well as in nature. It was a very heartwarming job and extremely rewarding.
Last summer I did a workaway at Borthwnog Hall in north Wales for six weeks. My main role was cleaning, and cooking for guests. I am an experienced cleaner and a confident cook. I love to cook and would be delighted to share some traditional french dishes with you:)
I also have a lot of experience working in hospitality, as a shift supervisor, a waitress, bartender and barista. These experiences have given me a sense of time-keeping, organisation, team work and customer service, as well as staying motivated and positive when having to work long,difficult hours.
I do not have much experience gardening but I love being in nature and outside and would really like to learn more.
