Description

Hello Host Families and travelers!

My name is Anna, I'm 26 years old, and am living nomadically between seasonal jobs and traveling.

I aim to lead a simple, happy, helpful, and sustainable life. I'm an easy going person with an overall positive and optimistic outlook on life. I am happiest when I'm outside and feel very connected to the natural world. I enjoy hiking, biking, mushroom foraging, climbing trees, writing (in my journal), reading, cooking healthy meals, baking, and forest exploring. I appreciate folks who practice open and honest communication. I've lived communally in many different settings and have always co-habitated happily with everyone else. I love having a community!

At Humboldt State I earned my degree in Environmental Science with a focus in education. Since then, I have helped lead environmental/outdoor education programs with a wide variety of ages in many different places. I've worked at two different outdoor schools in Oregon, completed an environmental education internship in rural India, and worked with indigenous youth in rural Alaska. I've also guided teens on weeklong backpacking trips in the Oregon backcountry, and recently worked two seasons in the Ecuador Andean cloudforest as the co-coordinator for their outdoor education program. This is my professional niche and am happy to contribute to any projects along these themes - outdoor education, adventure guiding, general tourism, creating interpretive signs.

I would love to help with, and have some experience in, gardening/farm work. I kept my own garden for years and loved getting to know the plants. I'm also a very clean and organized person and have experience in hospitality, so I'm happy to help clean and organize homes or rentals (I have experience meticulously cleaning rentals). I'm also a huge animal lover (cats and chickens are my fav!), passionate cook, and great baker.

I've also practiced growing edible mushrooms - something I'm extremely passionate about. If you have any interest in growing mushrooms on your land, or can teach me more, please feel free to reach out!

I'm fairly open to different kinds of work, and am sure I can meet it with enthusiasm. I prefer longer-term organized projects to invest my time into, so that I can contribute steadily and see results.

I'm looking forward to finding communities with similar values - nature appreciation, sustainable living, and healthy food and land. I have a lot I'd like to learn so that one day I can settle into my own piece of land and hopefully incorporate all the knowledge I am seeking now. Thanks for reading!

Warm regards,
Anna
