Descripción
Hello, I'm Emma
I'm taking three months away from my usual routine to travel slowly, meet interesting people, and learn about different ways of living and organising community.
Professionally, I'm a qualified architect and landscape architect. Over the last decade I've been focused on building my career, but before that I spent time travelling and volunteering through Workaway. Now that life has given me a little more breathing room, I'm excited to return to that spirit of exploration and exchange.
My professional background means I'm comfortable thinking about buildings, landscapes, design, planning and problem-solving. Alongside my day job, I've spent the last few years renovating my own house and helping friends with theirs, so I'm equally happy getting stuck into practical work.
I'm comfortable with:
Building and renovation projects
General DIY and maintenance
Painting and decorating
Landscaping and garden work
Basic carpentry and construction tasks
Design advice and spatial planning
Physical outdoor work in all weather
I'm not afraid of hard work and genuinely enjoy seeing a project take shape through collective effort.
Food is another big part of my life. I'm a confident and experienced cook who regularly caters for events, from small group dinners to larger celebrations. I've even made wedding cakes on occasion. I enjoy cooking for groups and see shared meals as one of the best ways to bring people together. Whether it's helping in a community kitchen, cooking for volunteers, or simply contributing to everyday meals, I'm always happy to get involved.
I'm interested in learning from people who are experimenting with different ways of living — co-living projects, intentional communities, eco-projects, regenerative land-based initiatives, and other creative approaches to community life.
I'm curious about how people organise themselves, share resources, build places together, and create meaningful lives outside conventional paths.
I'll be travelling in my converted campervan, so all I really need is somewhere suitable to park it. As a person, I'm flexible, independent, and easy-going.
I grew up in a very rural area, and nature is still where I feel most at home. I love being outdoors and am happiest when surrounded by landscapes, animals, gardens, forests, mountains or open countryside. More than anything, I'm looking forward to meeting good people, learning new skills, sharing what I know, and experiencing a few of the many different ways there are to live in this strange and fascinating world. -
