  • Descrição

    Hello, my name is Melinda, I am incredibly excited to be enjoying a career break from my life and job in Edinburgh exploring and experiencing more of the wider world.

    I am hardworking, friendly, and like to immerse myself in different cultures and ways of living, whilst also contributing to something worthwhile.

    In Edinburgh I am an active volunteer for a charity called Venture Scotland, which enables young people to enjoy nature and outdoor activities. My volunteer role includes maintenance of a bothy (a Scottish word for a refuge hut in the mountains) and taking groups of young people on activities such as kayaking and abseiling. Through this I have learnt a variety of skills ranging from cooking a veg chilli for 20+ people, building paths, building confidence, creating safe environments, and flooring attic spaces.

  • Quais são suas habilidades?

    I love adventure, I love the outdoors, I love building things with my hands, I love getting out of my comfort zone and I love animals.

    Skills wise, humm…I can make a great veg chilli and spicy bean hotpot. I have a lot of experience of working with groups of people, facilitating learning and presenting to large audiences. Practical wise, as well as the above, I am always willing to give something a go, I learn quick ish and also able to use my own initiative.

    As a job I coach entrepreneurs to build themselves and their businesses. I am also a qualified yoga teacher.

    I practice yoga and meditation daily, which is an intrinsic part in my physical and mental wellbeing.

    I'm not afraid of a challenge and living in difficult conditions, including living on a beach in Mexico, waking up to crabs on my face and scorpions in the toilet; to sleeping in huts in arctic conditions and hiking to 5642m (mount Elbrus). More recently I have lived in the Yukon in a cabin with no running water and in temperatures of -30 looking after 19 Alaskan Huskies.

    My main philosophy in life is to be kind, to myself, to others and to the world. I have had lots of challenges in life and these have enabled me to build great resilience and a growth mindset.
