Eu estou

Atividades em que tenho interesse:

I'm particularly interested in cultural exchange, community development, micro enterprise, Indigenous cultures, language learning, creative projects, and learn from different ways of life.

Descrição

I've lived and worked in Australia, Hong Kong, Canada, UK, and China, and some of my most memorable experiences have come from connecting with people and learning how different communities live, work and support one another.
 
I'm curious by nature and enjoy stepping outside my comfort zone, whether that's working in remote communities, spending time on a farm, teaching English, or getting involved in local projects. I value cultural exchange, practical learning, and the opportunity to see places beyond the usual tourist perspective.
 
These days, I work in remote Aboriginal communities in Arnhem Land and have a particular interest in community development, culture, community-led enterprise, and caring for country. I'm always keen to learn new skills, share my own experiences, and work alongside people from different backgrounds.

Quais são suas habilidades?

English teaching
I am TEFL certified. I have volunteer experience teaching English to children in China. Would you like to practice with me?

Working with communities
Requires a high level of empathy, active listening, time management, problem-solving, organisation and ability to lead and support team members. I am Cert IV qualified in aged-care and disability support work. Things I have done include facilitating tactile art workshops for deaf-blind people to learn new skills and socialise. Address housing needs for Indigenous Australians, and participated in initiatives aimed at enhancing living standards, education, and well-being.

Graphic design
Freelanced for over 10 years, running my own show, and finding new clients through word of mouth. I have excellent technical skills including Adobe CS, design layouts, photo editing, UX, campaign rollouts, and infographics, just to name a few. I have a knack for collaborating and adapting to different team cultures quite quickly.

Resiliency
Happy to camp and rough it without utilities for long periods of time. Not afraid to get dirty to get the job done. Experience in dairy farming and cattle station hand, cook, gardener and assist in mustering. Not a lot of strength but I can power on.

Administration and customer service
I am pretty quick on the computer, very detailed and organised. If you need any administration done for your office or reception, I can help.

Algo mais...

I thrive on outdoor adventures, always on the move and eager to meet new people, explore new places and experience new cultures. My passion is in community services and development, where I aim to make a positive impact wherever I go. From lending a helping hand in remote villages to participating in local initiatives, I find fulfilment in contributing to the well-being of others while having the opportunity to listen to their stories.

I am a lover of animals, whether it's cuddling up with a furry friend or having the opportunity to care for them brings me so much joy.

Sustainability is important to me, especially recycling and reducing waste. When my hips give in and I can no longer travel, I aspire to run an organisation to rescue food surplus and redistribute to those in need, and feed myself too.

I do yoga and meditation sometimes, but probably not as much as I should!
