Descripción

My greatest motivator is finding and nurturing peace, compassion, connection with people and Mother Nature. I want to experience the joy and beauty of life through travelling while connecting with humans. I am someone who likes to think critically about the world and learning and seeing it from different perspectives - I strive to stay open-minded and open-hearted. I want to travel for the purpose of connecting with other human's and learning about their journey and lifestyle that connects them to the beauty of nature.

I have devoted my life to "performing" and "accomplishing" things that are valued and viewed as successful by our modern world. I went to university, studied hard, got a Master's degree and became a physiotherapist. Then I devoted all my time and energy to building a career for myself. As I get older and start to listen to my heart, I realize that the individualist, goal-driven modern world comes at a high cost of losing sights of the simple things in life and most importantly my connection to presence, compassion and Mother earth.

My heart wants to learn more about gardening, community building and nurturing human connections where I might find a better sense of love and belonging in the world. I really want to contribute and be part of a community and that is what I am seeking to find through my travels. As much as I want to contribute to the external world, I am also using travelling to take an honest internal look at me as well. This includes learning to be with myself and slowing down; intentionally leaning into being vs doing. I am very passionate about self-growth and meditation as a vehicle for finding self-compassion that in turn manifests into compassion for other humans and the world.

Que habilidades tienes?

I have a Bachelors of Kinesiology as I have always been interested in sports and being active. I then went on to pursue a Masters in Physiotherapy and over the last 6 years have been working as a registered Physiotherapist.
I also have a strong interest in meditation, yoga, and gardening which I have not been able to develop as much skill in because I have always focused my energy on my career as a clinician.

Prior to starting my university journey, I spent a summer in Saskatchewan planting trees, gardening, and doing tree research on a farm. Gardening, being physically active, and learning new skills has always been something I have gravitated towards and got to experience for a short time before getting busy with school. Now that I finished that, I'm ready to return to learning and developing skills that keep me outside, closer to nature.

During my undergrad time (approx 10 years ago now) I spent a significant amount of time travelling by CouchSurfing in different countries in Europe and had the chance to exchange many cultural meals and stories with my hosts. Being able to connect and learn about people's lives around the world helped me gain insight, perspective and appreciation for how humans live around the world. During my travels I got to experience woofing in Greece, this experience was a highlight of my travel journey and is the reason why I want to return to travelling in a way that gives me the opportunity to integrate and experience an area so deeply. I reason I want to travel through Workaway is that I want to spend my time, energy and attention really learning from my hosts and integrating into their lifestyle so that I can have a deep understanding of their experience. I want to learn and in turn help through a collaborative, caring relationship with my hosts.

I do have a dog that is my companion in life and he comes everywhere with me. He is a 3-year-old handsome Rhodesian Ridgeback by the name of Hans. He is well socialized (good with other dogs), and well behaved. He takes a bit of time to warm up to strangers (particularly kids) but he just needs a bit of space and treats and can easily work through it. He is very calm and quiet :) I hope that you will consider having him around!

Algo más...

A bit of extra about me; I love being outdoors and really enjoy trail running (with my dog), rock climbing, meditation and yoga! I also enjoy relaxing indoor time to read, play board games (ie clue!), and be crafty.

I am beyond excited to get on the road and travel - I can't wait to connect with beautiful human beings so that we can laugh, love and experience joy together!
