At the moment I'm in Cambodia where I’m painting a mural in a newly opened bar/hostel in Koh Rong island. I 'll be going afterwards to either: Morocco or Italy. You need an artist, I'm here!
Descrição
---After staying in Koh Phayam (Thailand) for 3 weeks where I painted a 8 meter mural, I went toin Ko Mook Island and painted 2 murals and 21 wooden signs for a resort. I’m currently in Cambodia painting a mural for a brand new hostel: Lovesick---

I first used Workaway in 2017 during an 8-month journey across Thailand, Australia, India, Portugal, and Ireland. I painted murals, took photos, nannied, cooked, and more. Now, I’ve left my comfortable life in Paris to live as a digital/artist nomad in Asia (Thailand, Vietnam, Laos/Cambodia, and maybe Australia). I strive to leave each place more beautiful, adding lasting art to walls and contributing wherever I can.

This journey is not only about creativity but also self-discovery, helping me decide where to live next while gathering stories and inspiration from the people I meet.

Skills & experience
I’m a photographer and painter but also versatile. I’ve created websites (mine is www.delapalmaart.com), worked as a tour guide in Ireland, and even been a vegetarian chef for spiritual retreats. I enjoy sewing, crafting, and hosting cooking classes in a fun, welcoming environment.

Through the years, I’ve worked in many areas:
• Photography & Mural Art
• Social Media & Website Creation
• Tour Guide, Barmaid & Hostess
• Au Pair/Nanny, Housekeeping & Cooking

I’m hardworking, reliable, and love being part of a team. I value connection, knowing each role contributes to the bigger picture. Friendly and adaptable, I bring enthusiasm, efficiency, and creativity wherever I go.

A bit about me
I enjoy leading a healthy, balanced life—mentally and physically. I’ve walked the Camino de Santiago twice (480 km in Portugal and 900 km in Spain). I’m also a passionate roller-skater! Traveling gives me the chance to meet incredible people, learn, and grow.

I look forward to starting this new journey and connecting with you!

Mais detalhes sobre meu interesse em idiomas
I have lived abroad and decided when I was living in Australia that I wanted to be able to teach English if the opportunity presented itself. So I passed the TESOL certificate. That means I can speak French fluently and English and I can teach both of them. TESOL is a way of teaching the includes oral games and a playful teaching method. I know some Spanish and people understand me but I'd like to improve it. Then recently I started learning Italian. If I stay long enough in one country I'm always eager to learn some phrases to be understood by locals.

One of my favorite quote is: "Sharing is caring".
That's how I see volunteer work. For me it's very important to come to a place where I feel welcome, volunteering is an exchange where everyone need to feel fulfilled. I offer something you need, you offer me something I wish for.
I would love to work in a friendly environment where I can help with my photography or my cooking skills, i would love also to help with my creativity to embellish a place or help guests have a wonderful time.
On my own free time I take photographs of people or work on my social media, this is important to me, help and create on my free time.

I had a wonderful three weeks here with First, Non, and their adorable dogs. During my stay, I painted two murals (and smaller designs): a tiger emerging from the water and an 8m Thai landscape with Bob Marley overlooking the scene. The mural, painted in reggae colors, was designed to enhance the stage area, with white outlined letters of the… read more

It was lovely to have Marie with us for around 3 weeks. Our plan was only 2 weeks but she extended her stay just to get the work done which we truely appreciated. She arrived at the right moment when we really needed someone like her since we had plans to make new murals.

She’s talented and a funny person with a good sense of humor. She painted… read more

I had the chance to stay with this wonderful Turkish family after a challenging experience with another host in Istanbul, for whom I had completed two murals. From the moment I arrived, they welcomed me with incredible kindness and warmth, which was exactly what I needed at that time. I felt safe right away.
My main task was to teach French to… read more

We asked Marie to come and paint for us. She covered one of our hut walls with a beautiful and colorful Mandela and we are very happy with it. She was also very conservative and non wasteful with the paint (or anything) and we really appreciated that. All in all, she's a friendly girl :relaxed:

I stayed with Laura and George and their adorable Buddha baby Diego for 13 days, during that time I painted a big mandala on one of the wall of their resort in south Goa. Their resort is new and really gorgeous, a peaceful red land under the palms, right next to the river and 10 minutes walk from the beach. The location is amazing.
I painted a lot… read more

Having Marie has been an absolute pleasure. I actually made a dear friend! Which is pretty much the ultimate outcome of such an exchange :)

Marie was keen to cook in the mornings and have time in the afternoon and evenings for herself. I wanted some photos of our family taken and a few other domestic chores I added in the mix. All the tasks were… read more

Tom and Sandy were really adorable and Reiley is such a sweet little thing.
I felt very welcome at their place, i had a very confortable room and bed. I used to tidy the house, do the washing and cook for them. It's very simple. Once you've done that you can enjoy the rest of your day because they are very flexible about when you work. I used to… read more

Marie was a pleasure to have as a workaway. She is friendly and easy to get along with and respected our privacy. Marie is quite intuitive and proactive, she will do things around the house that she saw needed to be done. She is a great cook, and a good cleaner and helped with looking after our son. She is very independent and would complete her… read more

This was my first workaway but it couldn't have been better! Marilyn and Jess weren't around too much and for me it was a sign of how much they trust the team of volunteers to give the best time to travelers and make them feel welcome. There is this special feeling for everyone that comes, "this is place where you can belong". I can't remember… read more
