Descrição

I've always found happiness in being of service to others — it's simply part of who I am. Growing up, I'd often grab a mop or tidy up even as a guest in someone else's home, not because I was asked to, but because helping just felt natural.

Nature grounds me, and meaningful human connection is something I genuinely crave. I've moved countries and travelled a great deal, and while that's been incredibly enriching, I've reached a point where I want my experiences to feel more purposeful — less passing through, more truly belonging somewhere for a while.

Hospitality runs in my family. My mother was a wonderful host and a talented cook, and although she somehow didn't pass on her recipes (!), she gave me something perhaps more important: a deep appreciation for the warmth of making people feel welcome and cared for. I'm genuinely drawn to that world.

I've spent five years in IT customer support, where a glowing review from someone I'd helped would genuinely make my whole day. That says a lot about what drives me. I may not arrive with every skill in the toolbox, but I'm an eager learner and a hard worker — and knowing I've made someone's life a little easier is all the reward I need.

Quais são suas habilidades?

Physically, I'm very much a doer. I've played basketball for eight years, ran a full marathon in Palermo, and just cycled 120 km around the Netherlands last weekend — so I'm no stranger to hard work and I genuinely enjoy it. Any physical tasks, whether it's outdoor work or keeping things moving, I'm happy to take on.

I recently got into gardening after my partner and I bought an apartment with a terrace in the Netherlands. I've been planting flowers and learning as I go — it's become something I really look forward to.

In the kitchen, I'm still building my skills but I love the process. I've started hosting more — on my partner's last birthday I baked a camembert and made a homemade tiramisu. Simple, heartfelt food that brings people together is what I'm drawn to.

On the creative side, I enjoy mobile photography and making visuals for social media. I once even launched my own small women's clothing store back in my hometown, built around the idea of helping women embrace how they feel — so I have some experience with branding and content.

I may not be an expert in everything, but I bring enthusiasm, physical energy, and a genuine willingness to roll up my sleeves and figure things out.

Algo mais...

Cinema is a big passion of mine — moving to Europe opened up a whole new world of film for me, and I've fallen in love with the classics and particularly the French New Wave. Visuals in general captivate me, whether it's a beautifully composed shot, a piece of art, or just light hitting a landscape the right way.

Wellness is a big part of my life too. Living in Amsterdam has given me plenty of opportunities to explore sound healing, yoga, and meditation, and I've embraced all of it. That said, I've also discovered something simple about myself: moving my body and doing physical work is its own kind of healing for me.

My partner is a former mountain climber, so our travels together tend to be active ones — hiking in the Alps, via ferrata in the Dolomites, always somewhere with a bit of altitude and adventure. I love how travel opens you up to different ways of living, and I'm always curious to learn more about the cultures I encounter.
