Description

Hello :) I'm a British digital nomad, currently based in Poland. I love being active outdoors, exploring new places and getting close to nature. I keep returning to Finland and dream of living there one day (help with learning Finnish would be much appreciated).
Keen to learn new skills and share new experiences, hopefully with plenty of delicious (vegetarian) food to go around! I enjoy meeting people and socialising, but equally value peace, quiet and solitary time for reflection.

Quelles sont vos compétences ?

My professional background is in the UK charity sector, specifically helping non-profits to recruit, train and manage volunteers (10+ years). I've also recently completed a Level 3 certification in Teaching English as a Foreign Language (TEFL).
Happy to assist with creative/online tasks if needed - e.g. designing promotional material, info packs, training, etc.
I love food and like to cook and bake often (with varying success, haha...).
Keeping fit and active is important to me, so physical activities/tasks are also fine. I don't have much experience building or fixing things, but I can tidy, clean, paint, etc. and I'm happy to follow instructions.

Autres infos...

I like to walk/hike, camp, go for bike rides, and swim in natural water (sea, rivers, lakes). I have some experience kayaking. I did a lot of climbing at university but haven't done much recently - it would be good to get back into this!

I had a lovely experience in this beautiful forest location for 2 weeks, sleeping in a tent right next to the house in progress. I wasn't able to help with the project directly, but contributed by cooking meals, washing up, fetching water, collecting wood and putting it through the wood chipper, etc. It was my first time in the Finnish archipelago … read more

I had the pleasure of staying with Sauli and Laura for one week in August 2023 and can recommend them wholeheartedly - they’re great workaway hosts and generally wonderful people!

Nicola came to volunteer with us in august 2023. She didn't shy away from any of the tasks given to her; she worked in the greenhouses, helped building a barn wall, baked, among other things. All the tasks given she fullfiled with care. She is independent, has own initiative and felt happy with the comfort and food we could provide her. Everything … read more

I spent a very happy 5 days in Pyhämaa with Johanna and her family :) They were all super friendly and made me feel very welcome! The living space was ideal - clean, comfortable and private. I helped with picking berries, stacking wood and cooking meals, for 4-5 hours each day, with lots of flexibility. There was plenty of time to explore the … read more
