Descripción

Hello! My name is Emily. I am an active, health-loving individual who loves moving, learning, creating, experiencing natural beauty, connecting with people, and making positive contributions.
I am in Australia on a 1 year working holiday visa until November 2023. Currently in Newcastle, NSW and heading north at the end of May. I am looking for opportunities to live close to nature, be involved in holistic wellness, learn, share, and grow as a human.
My interests include all things somatics/body/mind/movement, massage/bodywork, dance, contact improv, acro yoga, yoga, breathwork, fitness, swimming, rollerblading, biking, calisthenics, high quality clean nutrition, humanely raised meat and dairy, regenerative agriculture, permaculture, cooking, herbal medicine, psychology, art making, building, woodworking, and learning new skills.
I greatly value a quiet home environment and need a fair amount of time alone to be balanced but one of my absolute favorite things in life is connecting with other humans. Relationships are everything.
I love learning new things and being intellectually and physically challenged while at the same time taking life slowly, savoring and enjoying the simple pleasures. I love the satisfaction of creating things with my hands, whether it is a recipe or a building project. I am a fast learner and very detail-oriented. I learn well from observation.
I love any type of hands-on, creative work. Painting, building, (I even have some experience metalworking!), cooking, I have done some tile work, a bit of earth-building, painted sets for theater productions, made one-of-a-kind costumes and volunteered at music festivals in art/decor.
I have spent two summers on Vancouver Island, British Columbia working on a farm, learning about organic farming, medicinal herbs, permaculture, soil biology, caring for chickens, etc. The second summer was a six month internship in herbal medicine. I have traveled in Bali and spent three months in Hawaii where I completed a 200 hour Yoga Teacher Training and worked as the raw vegan chef at a retreat center. Other travels include two years living/working on a permaculture farm community/wellness retreat on Big Island, Hawaii where I completed a permaculture design course and worked as the owner's assistant in high CBD hemp production and product making. Was involved in managing the AirBnB rentals there also. Backpacked in Western Europe for a few months in 2019 and roadtripped in the Western United States for 6 months in 2021.
I arrived in Australia November 2022 and am currently looking for opportunities North of Newcastle. I have a vehicle.
I am a certified massage therapist in California. Recently completed Zen Thai Shiatsu level 1 training in Newcastle. I am a certified yoga instructor and have limited teaching experience but would like to start teaching again here. I have work experience in customer service at yoga studios and food and beverage service.
I speak some French, not fluently, but I studied it in school so I understand a fair amount. I also know a very little bit of Spanish.
I would love to meet people with similar interests to mine with whom I can share and learn and contribute my energy. I think that the true beauty in life is in sharing ourselves with our fellow humans, and the magic is in unraveling the journey.

I have a lifelong fascination with the human body/mind/nervous system and movement/creative expression/art/music. I am journeying to try to clarify what steps to take next to dive into this field in a professional way.
