  • Description

    I am from a mixed background, British and Czech. I have now left Europe and not intending to go back. Before I left, I had my own business as an osteopath, which I enjoyed very much. Now I am more into energy healing and always looking for new ways to improve my skills and help anyone who needs it.

    I started travelling for the first time about a year ago. My first destination was Guyana. I volunteered in an indigenous village improving the business at their Ecolodge. This involved designing their website, photographing and posting videos. I also became a teacher and encouraged everyone to use the social media to promote the lodge.

    My next trip was to the jungles of Peru for 3 months. Here I helped monitoring the birds, frogs, snakes and caimans. We also fed the mammals, maintained trails, harvested fruits, planted new trees and cultivated vegetables. My favourite was making chocolate and coffee from picking to roasting and drinking.


    In Ecuador I spent one month on a beautiful farm in the middle of nowhere, really enjoying the birdsong. I have absolutely loved feeding little calves. Done a lot of gardening, preparing the soil for seeds, harvesting and weeding.
    I also spent 2 months on the coast helping set up the garden and orchard.

    I love the outdoors, in Ecuador I thought the mountains suited me the most. I met a lot of lovely people on hikes, locals and tourists. The people is probably the part I enjoy the most. Hearing many stories and learning new things as well as making new friends.
    But now being on the coast, I love it just as much, particularly working with plants.

    I enjoy good food and drink, cooking is also one of my favourite activities.

  • What else ...

    I am looking for a place more like home. Would like to stay at least a month to get to know the people properly.
    I am happy to learn any job at any location. I am in no hurry.

    Mainly I enjoy being outside, at the moment I have the use of an open air kitchen, which I am absolutely loving.

    I offer energy healing to anyone who needs it gratis.
