Most of the DIY projects in my new home have already been covered by current and upcoming Workawayers. At the moment, I’m mainly looking for creative individuals with skills such as:
-Video making & editing
-Photography
-Social media content creation
-Creative marketing
I’m Marina, from Brazil, and I’ve been living in Southeast Asia for 4 years now. I love connecting with people from around the world, sharing experiences, and learning from each other. I recently moved into a new home in Penang, and I’m excited to host Workawayers who can bring their creativity and ideas to life here.
I’m a psychotherapist and psychoanalyst, working from home with online clients. I’ve set up my own therapy business and enjoy a lifestyle that’s natural and conscious. I love being out in nature, at the beach, by the waterfalls, or walking through town to enjoy the vibe of Georgetown and the amazing Malaysian food. I share my days with Kaya, my dog, and I value simple living, good food, good exercise, friends, music, yoga, meditation, and meaningful connections.
If you are passionate about storytelling through images, videos, or creative online presence, please shoot me a message, I would love to connect and host you!
Note on reviews:
The reviews on my profile are from when I was living in a different home with a partner. This is now a new space where I live on my own, and I’m excited to welcome Workawayers here for the first time.

It’s a place to work with your hands, connect with nature, and experience the cultural richness of Penang.
Ayuda
I’m looking for travellers who are creative, independent, and excited about storytelling through digital media.
At the moment, I could use help with:
Video making & editing
Photography
Social media content creation
Creative marketing & fresh ideas for my therapy business
In exchange, you’ll have your own bedroom and plenty of free time to explore beautiful Penang.
I usually ask for up to 5 hours of help, Monday to Friday, with weekends free. When tasks are lighter (such as content planning or editing), the schedule can be even more flexible.
If you’re creative, proactive, and happy to bring your own ideas, you’ll feel right at home here!

I offer a comfortable queen-sized bed in a private bedroom with your own bathroom in my beautiful apartment, just 5 minutes from Miami Beach in Batu Ferringhi area. Peaceful part of the island yet close to cafes, shops, and local life, perfect for relaxing after a day of helping or exploring.
Accommodation perks:
You’ll enjoy an ocean view from the apartment, plus an ample corner sea view from your own room, perfect for chilling, working, or soaking in the tropical atmosphere. It’s truly a digital nomad’s paradise.
Note:
If I don’t require any help at the time of your travel, you can inquire about renting the room instead.
Algo más...
Public transport is available in the area, with buses running daily from early morning to evening. Scooters can also be rented from nearby shops if you want more freedom to explore. There’s good phone signal at home and good Wi-Fi.
In your time off, you can:
Relax at the apartment or by the pool
Walk to the beach for a swim or sunset
Hike to nearby waterfalls or explore Penang National Park
Meditate, read in a hammock, or simply enjoy the sound of the birds
Discover Penang Island, from bustling George Town to quiet fishing villages and scenic viewpoints
