Descrição
I'm an environmentalist and artist from Tasmania, Australia. When I'm not working in environmental management, I spend oodles of time on my art profession, making everything from functional ceramic wares to whimsy sculptures. My work is focused on the interdependent relationship between people and nature. I'm looking to travel in the European region in 2025, to further my ceramic practice.
I'm also very keen to build knowledge and skills in eco-building, as I believe this is the best solution for my future. Having studied some permaculture design, and been through Steiner schooling, my values are deeply rooted in sustainability and wholistic living.

Algo mais...
A few more things about me!

- I love dogs, particularly German short-haired pointers. We have one at home and he's my absolute favourite.
- I enjoy learning new skills, and I'm ready to take on most things. I've been trying to build myself a studio on wheels, something like a "tiny home" for the past year or so. I've learnt a lot about construction that I never expected to enjoy but I really do.
- Aside from my ceramics, I love practicing a wide range of art mediums. Recently I've been experimenting with acrylic inks on fabric. I also enjoy water colour, oils and acrylics. I'm keen on painting natural scenes as as well as portraiture.
- I'm interested to learn traditional crafts, such as spinning, weaving, tanning, and clothes making.

Mahalia was a great workawayer. She pursued the tasks with enthusiasm and a great work ethic. She asks enough questions to get the information she needs and can work well with others and also on her own. She doesn't need supervising at all. She embraced the opportunity to share her artistic talents as well as completed the tasks i needed done.… read more

My stay with Andrea was fantastic! She is such a kind and generous host. We spent time in the bottle and cob building, doing lots of lime washing. She was very supportive of my art and even encouraged me to make a sculpture and shelf from cob. The farm is very nice and Andrea was kind enough to drive me to the beach a few times. I'd highly… read more

John and Laura's place is a lovely little oasis in Orewa. I had a great time helping John with some construction jobs and painting. John is super generous with his knowledge and is happy to teach which I'm super grateful for. The beaches nearby are lovely, though I would recommend a car because the hill is quite steep to get back up! Thank you so… read more

Doris and Ata welcomed me for two weeks and I'm so grateful for the time. I loved the generosity from both Doris and Ata, sharing conversations, knowledge, and opportunities with me. I learnt how to build cob walls and some earth plastering which was fantastic. It was great to get to know their family and be privileged to visit the special… read more

Mahalia is the ideal guest and workaway-er. Her communication skills are fantastic, she's mature and fun at the same time, very considerate, a self starter and someone who applies herself in any task you give her. She also impressed us by pursuing and achieving her own goals, learning new skills and getting the best result both for herself, her… read more
