Description

Hi friends!
I'm travelling to Europe very briefly from the 14th June- 14th July and would love the opportunity to work in exchange while I am in Ibiza and Italy.

I have hosted countless folks who have exchanged their help for a home at my place in Western Australia over the last 16 years. I understand the richness and value of exchanging skills, time, culture, language, food, love and the warmth of a home - and I have made many many wonderful heart friends over the years by opening up my home.

I would like to experience the other side of the exchange for a very brief time while I am in Italy and Ibiza and i'm looking forward to contributing to your home, and making friends.

I am a passionate conservationist and activist, a private cook that specialises in organic whole food from scratch, I dig permaculture and love trekking, dance, yoga, poetry, hula hoop and techno!

I pride myself on a low impact lifestyle - very eco conscious, and I also value my health and wellbeing very highly. Deeply spiritual - my goddess is Nature.

I am a single mother of three and this is my first holiday since becoming a parent 22 years ago. I am self employed and am a natural entrepreneur. I also work freelance in not for profits on strategy development and volunteer for fun.

This means I know how to work hard, in many many facets of homelife, business. and community.

My love language is cooking food for people and I find joy and peace in nature.

Looking forward to meeting you!
