Hi, I’m Marina! I’m from São Paulo, Brazil, and I’ve been living abroad for 11 years across different continents. I live a semi-nomadic lifestyle, traveling often, but currently based in Malaysia. I have a lovely apartment in Penang, stylishly decorated, with the most beautiful sunsets on the island, it’s an inspiring space to live and work. I share my days with my dog, Kaya, and I love being in nature, exploring waterfalls, relaxing at the beach, walking through Georgetown, doing yoga, and soaking up the local culture. I work online with clients as a psychotherapist and psychoanalyst, and I’m currently niching my business, so...
At the moment, I’m looking for creative individuals who can help me with this next phase of my psychotherapy business. The skills I’m seeking include:
Video making & editing
Photography
Content creation & strategies
Website development and design
Creative marketing
I’m especially looking for people who have their own equipment and can show examples of previous work — professional, clean, and functional is perfect; nothing needs to be “super fancy.”
If you have experience with content creation, video production, website development, or creative marketing, and can share examples of your past work, I would love to hear from you and explore how we can collaborate.
Note on reviews:
The older reviews on my profile are from when I was living in a different home with a partner. This is now a new space where I live on my own.

I’m looking for travelers who are creative, independent, and passionate about storytelling through digital media.
At the moment, I could use help with:
Video making & editing

Creative marketing & fresh ideas for my therapy business
In exchange, you’ll have your own bedroom and plenty of free time to explore the beautiful island of Penang. I usually ask for up to 5 hours of help per day, Monday to Friday, with weekends free. For lighter tasks, such as content planning or editing, the schedule can be even more flexible.
