Descripción

Hi! I'm from tropical FNQ Australia, I grew up in the country but spent some years away in the city.
Truly my passions are Fine Arts painting, drawing and also playing music. I love learning and improving my Spanish and Portuguese.

I'm passionate about personal growth/developement and healing as well as animal rights. I occasional volunteer as an Animal Rights activist in my local city and have been practicing a vegan lifestyle for the last few years.

I love spending time outdoors, I love running and exercise and eating healthy. I'm trying to reduce my caffeine intake (coffee is yum) and be more aware of eating more whole foods.

I love growing plants, playing and experimenting with propagating from seeds and propagating succulent plants. I come from a family with knowledge in Syntropic farming and permaculture, and although I haven't had experience in growing large portions of food, I am very interested in this and do enjoy being in the garden and learning more about the natural world. I love hiking, museums, art and music!

Thanks for reading 😊

Over the years as a hobby I've learned Spanish and can speak at a basic level and have basic conversations. It's actually hard for me to say which level I am at as sometimes my comprehension can help me understand at least 70% of a conversation or video, but it varies depending on accents and speeds of conversation. I have not memorised all verb conjugations or learned how to use the vosotros pronoun. The Portuguese I have learned is entirely Brazilian Portuguese as my ex partner was from Brazil and I've learned very basic Portuguese to communicate to his grandparents who speak slowly and in a regional accent. I have communicated with Timorese folk in Portuguese and been able to have very simple conversations. I would be more than happy to improve both Spanish and Portuguese and help anyone with their English, as English is my native language.

I went to Art School for three years where I primarily focused on oil painting but took regular life drawing classes and plain eire painting sessions as well. Part of my course included Art History, where my favourite subject was Surrealism.

- Graphic Design (Specialisation from CalArts through Coursera)

So for the past few months while studying, I have been working as a cleaner is various places. As I've been living in a tropical area a lot of this has been mould cleaning.
