Description
Hello!
I’m Shelley, an artist and illustrator based in the UK. I'm always looking for opportunities to travel and explore new opportunities. That's why I love the Workaway platform so much and have had many amazing and rewarding experiences over the years.

I've done 5 Workaways so far since 2022, the first as an au pair for a lovely family in Portugal, the second, working on a wonderful rescue horse farm that specialises in horse healing and the third teaching English to a range of ages at a language association in Veneto, fourth english teaching through play and taking care of children in Torino and the fifth was creating a large scale mural on the outside wall of the hosts farm.
I'm keen to seek more artistic opportunities so send me a message if you have any project ideas and you'd like to collaborate!

I’ve been a freelance artist for over 15 years alongside working with preschool aged children as an early years professional. I've also worked as a nanny and a counsellor at a summer camp in USA. Now I'm a personal tutor for college aged children.

I’ve travelled to various countries such as the USA, Asia, Australia and New Zealand and many countries within Europe, however my heart lies within Italy and I'm currently learning the language.

Whether it’s contributing my time and skills or simply sharing stories over a cup of tea, I love meeting likeminded people and learning from different ways of life. Connection, curiousity, creativity and compassion are some of my strongest values.
Thanks for reading, feel free to send me a message if you have any questions or would like to know more about working together. Shelley

I’m incredibly grateful to Alessandro and his wonderful family for what has truly been the best Workaway experience I’ve ever had. I spent two weeks in Magomadas and from the very first day, I felt like part of the family.
Alessandro is one of the kindest and most generous people you’ll ever meet. He’s also genuinely fascinating to talk to, with a… read more

I had the most unforgettable experience with this wonderful family in Villar Dora! From the moment they picked me up and gave me a mini tour of Torino, I felt completely welcomed. They shared so much of their lives with me, from delicious home-cooked meals to beautiful local experiences, friends, music and recommendations. I even had the chance to… read more

This workaway at the association was only intended to be a 3 month position and I ended up staying for the full school year which speaks volumes. It was a great introduction into the world of teaching English as a foreign language. I had originally thought my role was going to be working with the younger children but this in fact was also teaching… read more

I don't know where to start with Shelley! She is simply amazing and the perfect addition to our team this year. She worked with students of all levels at our school teaching them English. The young students loved her creative ideas and loved being part of her book writing/illustrating process. The older students also loved having her as their… read more

Shelley is a great workawayer with excellent people skills. She works well in a team and learns fast.

She is reliable and punctual in her work and a nice person to have around!

During her time with us, as well as doing the farm work with the horses, she prepared some lovely meals together with the other volunteers.

She also made a really… read more

I stayed at the farm for just over 3 weeks and what an incredible, unique and special experience I had here. The daily work is straightforward and easily picked up in a matter of days, regardless of any prior experience with horses. It’s amazing how quickly you’ll get to know the 12 horses and their individual personalities.

The hosts Pia and… read more

She was very attentive to our baby's needs, she was very thoughtful and taught our baby a lot, like clapping his hands and also making him… read more

I spent the whole month of March here and I consider myself very lucky to have landed this opportunity for my very first Workaway experience. It’s going to be hard to beat. Hilary and Rodrigo are fantastic hosts and you will fall in love with baby Rio and Monstro the dog who is very much a member of the family.

They live in a nice house in a… read more
