  • Description

    Hi my name is Sula and I am from Edinburgh, Scotland. I am currently on a gap year and have been backpacking and volunteering at an art centre in Norway, for the last couple months.
    I have a large range of skills from my many jobs, such as being a technician and wood work assistant. I love gardening and working outdoors and and helped on a farm in Germany over the summer harvesting vegetables, weeding, planting and sewing.
    I attended an alternative school (Rudolf Steiner School) where we learnt, alongside with regular classes, how to garden, woodwork and sew. This way of learning has made me proficient at working with my hands and taking initiative.
    I am eager to meet new people, join communities and make soulful connections. I love hiking, wild swimming (anything outdoors) and making art.

  • More details about your skills

    I am a hands on person with a wide range of skills. These skills consist of practical work such as gardening, farming knowledge, woodwork, childcare, team building projects and a great work ethic. I have gained my skills through my education at a Rudolf Steiner School, which is an alternative creative and hands on based school were outdoorsy practical work is taught alongside normal lessons. I have been part of a large kids team at the summer camp, Rise up Singing in the UK, which shares the love of singing, a vision of building community, and the experience of living close to the land. Growing up I have always had access to a large garden and have been taught the art of caring for the land and growing ones own produce. I have also grown up around lots of animals, chickens, dogs, cats you name it so have experience looking after and caring for them. I have looked after live stock and horses through doing numerous house sitting with my family so am capable of working on a farm and can sufficiently ride.
    I hope I can bring my warmth, determination, integrity, discipline and care to your needs.

  • What else ...

    I love playing group games and have a few card tricks and fun games that I could teach. As I am studying art I would be bringing a sketchbook with me and am happy to teach anyone who wants to learn the basics of art if they are not confident or just want to come out drawing with me.
