Descripción

Hello! I’m Sophia, I'm 27 and I'm hoping to fulfill my dreams of surfing and farming in New Zealand.

I lived in southern California for the past decade, where I became a trade unionist after finishing college with a degree in public health. I got burnt out from fighting corporate greed-- though it was my life and world and I loved it-- so now I’m opening a new chapter to spend time outdoors and experience how other people live. I'm all about mutual respect, genuine warmth, and clear communication. I'd love to lend a hand where I can be helpful!

Que habilidades tienes?

I am happy to get my hands dirty and learn new skills. I may not be the strongest petite woman to have existed, but I did work in warehousing for 5 years so I’m pretty hardy when it comes to manual labor!

I’m comfortable with basic gardening skills after having my own humble plot for a few years and volunteering at a community garden. I have experience growing veggies from seed, managing pests, turning compost, and using power tools to make garden beds. I also worked at a farmers market selling dirt cheap, chemical-free produce (an Organic certification was expensive) in a poor section of town, so I know the value of making sure that everybody can eat well.

I enjoy cooking and baking, neither of which I’m incredibly advanced at, but I like to experiment and take on challenging recipes. I recently completed a 2 month residency at a Buddhist meditation monastery in New York, where I spent a good amount of time in the kitchen cooking vegetarian meals for 100+ people (though I will say, I was hungry for protein all the time!).

Lastly, I enjoy physical and practical art projects. I’m a beginner knitter, intermediate ceramist, and have spent time processing plant roots to make fabric dye. I like making kombucha, reading, lifting weights, going for walks, and I meditate each morning to start my day.
