  • Description

    Kia Ora (hello)!

    I'm Wiremu Hohaia, a Māori and part Dutch traveller from New Zealand. The past 17 years, I've been living in Australia where I studied Cognitive Neuroscience and worked in laboratories and medical manufacturing. Part-time, I worked as an artist, exhibiting and selling paintings and merchandise.

    Some general interests: Photography, music production, DJ'ing, painting, ceramic art, skateboarding, scuba diving, poetry, hiking, food, science, philosophy, cultural diversity, reading and writing, nature, as well as cities.

    I value very highly, minimalism and contentedness above abundance and happiness. I don't require much to fulfil my life. This has lead me to favour solitude, nature, and simple living. I am very interested in eco living, permaculture, and DIY. I often dream about one day producing my own honey, to spread on my homemade bread, upon a chair I'd made, before a landscape that warms me inside. A blank canvas waits for me to finish breakfast. I see my time during Workaway stays as a time to learn essential skills to setup my own home one day.

    I look forward to meeting you. Chances are, you may become the subject of a painting, photograph, poem, or may inspire a compositional piece of music.

    Warm regards,
    Your personal artist.

  • Quelles sont vos compétences ?

    OUTDOORS:

    - House renovation/DIY (in New Zealand, our family would renovate houses).
    - Woodwork skills (in high school, I studied woodwork).
    - Farming (some experience in New Zealand on family farms with cattle, sheep, lambs, pigs, chickens)
    - Fruit orchards (one of my favourite destinations, my grandfather's mandarin orchard. He taught me a lot, mostly the value of caring for your fruits).
    - Classic car restoration (I restored my first car with my dad, an 1965 Wolseley 24/80).
    - Gardening (my parents have a small amount of land with flower and vegetable gardens and chickens. I often help them).

    INDOORS:

    - Cooking (I was training to become a Chef. I stopped half-way through to go to university. Though my passion for cooking has remained).
    - Sewing (My mum was a dressmaker when she was young. I became interested in fashion in high school. I would make various garments for myself and gifts to others).
    - Painting (I have been making art since I was 6 years old).
    - Poetry (Poetry is interesting for me, because I enjoy finding the exact words that best convey emotions. I recently published a small poetry book).
    - Videography (in high school I studied film and television, where I learnt how to create a narrative using videos).
    - Computer programming (while working in labs, I learnt how to program experiments. This biggest lesson I took from this, was an appreciation for logic-based reasoning).
    - Skateboarding (I have been skateboarding for 7 years. For some of that time, I was coaching children).
    - Course tutor (I love teaching. I worked as a course tutor at university for a couple years. I taught computer programming, topics on sensory neuroscience, and statistics).
    - Computer skills (I learned essential skills at university on topics of data visualisation, statistics, and academic writing).
    - Electronic music production. (I have been producing music for around 4 years. I have released 2 singles and an album on international record labels).
    - DJ (the past 2 years, I have been occasionally DJ'ing in Brisbane City, Australia. I'm always interested in sharing these experiences with people).
