  • Description

    I’m a multidisciplinary healer, massage therapist, coach, and artist with over a decade of experience supporting people and spaces. Alongside my professional work, I’ve spent many years as a housesitter, event coordinator, interior decorator. I love animals, children and nature.

    I have a very hands-on attitude and enjoy actively participating in the life of a place — whether that’s supporting farm routines, strategies for development, helping with guests and hospitality, caring for children,cooking or contributing to the general upkeep and flow of a space. I take pride in leaving spaces better than I found them and bring a calm, reliable team-centric presence in shared environments.

    I’m comfortable in rural and semi-rural settings, adapt easily, communicate clearly, and work well both independently and as part of a team. I’m especially drawn to projects rooted in nature, community, creativity, retreats, and intentional living.

    I am from South Africa, with a Dutch passport, and would love to learn more Italian and Spanish. I’m currently exploring Europe and am excited to exchange skills, care, and practical support while learning from different cultures and ways of life.

    I have previously worked in the NGO field developing and implementing training and research and have run a successful healing practice for 7 years. I am looking for opportunities to learn, grow and connect as I hone my creativity and desire for community. I look forward to meeting you and making magic together.
