Descripción
Hi! I’m Shelley, a 35 years old artist/ traveller based in Liverpool, originally from Staffordshire, England.
I've had three Workaway opportunities so far, the first as an au pair for a lovely family, the second, working on a wonderful rescue horse farm that specialises in horse healing and the third teaching English to a range of ages at a language association.

I’ve been freelancing in the art & illustration world for just over 10 years alongside working with preschool aged children as a early-years-professional (early childhood) for over a decade.

I graduated with a Masters in Children’s Book Illustration last year and now plan to focus my time on more travel. I began my travels in February 2022, ongoing for at least the next year.

I’ve travelled to USA, Asia, Australia and New Zealand and interrailed across Europe. This time round, I’d quite like to experience more slow paced travel and seek opportunities living and working in new places for longer periods of time whilst continuing my art work in spare time. I had never done Workaway before until the spring but similarly, I was hired as a counsellor at a summer camp in the States. I taught ceramics to campers aged 6-16 years. Last summer I was a nanny for a 15 month old little girl which I loved.

I’m looking forward to discovering at what Workaway has to offer, I'd love to do anything connected to caring for children, animals or any artistic and creative experiences.

In the future I'd love to travel to some of my dream destinations in Europe, South America and South East Asia.

The main reason for travelling this time round is to experience living and working in new places, meeting likeminded people and spending more time in nature.

This workaway at the association was only intended to be a 3 month position and I ended up staying for the full school year which speaks volumes. It was a great introduction into the world of teaching English as a foreign language. I had originally thought my role was going to be working with the younger children but this in fact was also teaching… read more

I don't know where to start with Shelley! She is simply amazing and the perfect addition to our team this year. She worked with students of all levels at our school teaching them English. The young students loved her creative ideas and loved being part of her book writing/illustrating process. The older students also loved having her as their… read more

Shelley is a great workawayer with excellent people skills. She works well in a team and learns fast.

She is reliable and punctual in her work and a nice person to have around!

During her time with us, as well as doing the farm work with the horses, she prepared some lovely meals together with the other volunteers.

She also made a really… read more

I stayed at the farm for just over 3 weeks and what an incredible, unique and special experience I had here. The daily work is straightforward and easily picked up in a matter of days, regardless of any prior experience with horses. It’s amazing how quickly you’ll get to know the 12 horses and their individual personalities.

The hosts Pia and… read more

Shelley is such an amazing educator, a very sensitive, humble, and responsible person, and we were so lucky to have her with us for a month and we are looking forward for her to come back as soon as she can.
She was very attentive to our baby's needs, she was very thoughtful and taught our baby a lot, like clapping his hands and also making him… read more

I spent the whole month of March here and I consider myself very lucky to have landed this opportunity for my very first Workaway experience. It’s going to be hard to beat. Hilary and Rodrigo are fantastic hosts and you will fall in love with baby Rio and Monstro the dog who is very much a member of the family.

They live in a nice house in a… read more
