Description

hello there!

I am Natasha, a curious and enthusiastic slow traveler from Switzerland. After my studies in Performing Arts back home, I am now on an extended surf trip around the world.
I love workaway because it is a nice way to get to know a place and its people while doing something useful with my time, immersing myself in the local culture and environment. With positivity and a lot of motivation I am keen to work and help out with whatever is needed at your business!

As a professional performer and certified Yoga Instructor (200hrs Hatha/Ashtanga), I love working with people and movement. I am a quick learner, adapting easily to new environments and tasks. As an autonomous team-player with a strong sense of responsibility I like to take up new challenges and keep on learning, expanding my knowledge and comfort-zone.

On a volunteer basis I have taught Yoga in different hostels, as well as taking up the role of social host often, enjoying mindfulness and socialising in balance. As a keen surfer I am looking to be close to the sea and a surf break, being able to chase waves in my free time.

I have work experience in office-related roles (Marketing and Project Assistant, Customer Service) and as a waitress in cafés and restaurants. Moreover I have been active in projects including forest/garden work and eco-building.

I call myself a competent and efficient all-rounder, with a friendly, easy-going attitude and keen to share my energy with a community - based on mutual respect and open communication. Let's get in touch!

More details about your skills

Movement is my world - professional dancer, performer and a certified Yoga Instructor.
Therefore I’m physically fit and able to do quite demanding tasks, carry fairly heavy stuff and have no problem getting sweaty.

I’m good with people, having guided theatre and dance workshops with kids and adults from different backgrounds as a volunteer for Clowns without Borders Switzerland.

I would describe myself as a tidy person, who appreciates cleaning and organising, taking care of a home space, doing office-related tasks, helping out with the admin of a place, I know how to use a computer and most Microsoft/Mac programs

I can drive a car, also vans, and scooter. I have cooked delicious vegetarian and vegan dishes over a few weeks for a smaller group in the mountains on a fire stove. There are also a few languages I speak fluently and would be able to teach or share with people.

Most important, I’m a quick learner, adaptable, independent, responsible and trustworthy.
