  • Description

    Hi! I am an horticulture therapist and I love travelling, getting to know different cultures, people, customer service, team working and learning anything related to horticulture, gardening, healthy food, people and nature.
    I am taking a sabbatical term to further enrich my knowledge studying on-line and working in other projects related to organic gardening- horticulture, nature and people. Workawaying is an awesome plan. I did it before and I some times have foreing students at home too. Enriching experiences so they are.
    I´ve always been working with customer service and nature andworked in an organic shop with a little kitchen for 10 years, supporting local km0 and organic projects .
    I´m currently working with disable people, autism and brain damage users through nature and they give me a daily boost to be a sociable, positive and active person. Soil preparation, prunning, seed sowing, planting, watering, seasonal plant care, harvesting,etc ... We do everything, they are great helpers!!
    I have lived in Ireland for 6 years, I love travelling as much as I can and I love having people at home. Always having an student from abroad at home is an enriching experience!
    My hobbies are travelling, ciclying, hiking, reading, the sea itself, healthy cooking, yoga, dancing, creating things from recicle stuff, plants, veggie gardens care, and meeting people.
    I love cooking organic and I have some studies in health and nutrition.
    I would like to help anyone who needs it and offer some positive experiencies!!

    ¡Hola! Soy terapeuta hortícola y me encanta viajar, conocer otras culturas y personas, el trabajo en equipo y aprender y experimentar a través de la horticultura, la jardinería, la naturaleza, las personas y la comida saludable.
    Estoy en un tiempo sabático de mi trabajo para estudiar a distancia , ampliar conocimientos y trabajar en otros proyectos relacionados con la agricultura orgánica, naturaleza y personas. He hecho workaway antes y he tenido estudiantes extranjeros en casa alguna vez. Todo experiencias enriquecedoras.
    Actualmente trabajo con personas con capacidades diversas, autismo y daño cerebral y ellas me dan la motivación diaria para ser una persona sociable, positiva y activa. Preparación del terreno, semilleros, siembra, cosecha, riegos, cuidados estacionales, etc,.. todo lo hacemos con mis maravillosos ayudantes!!
    He vivido en Irlanda 6 años y viajo tanto como puedo, me encanta tener gente en casa y siempre algún estudiante extranjero. La convivencia es una experiencia muy enriquecedora!
    Mis hobbies son viajar, la bici, senderismo, el maravilloso mar, cocina saludable, yoga, baile, leer, crear cosas a partir de material reciclado, la naturaleza , plantas, cuidado de arboles y huertos y conocer gente.
    Me encanta la cocina sana y todo lo que tenga que ver con nutrición y salud, ya que tengo alguna formación en este área.
    Me gustaría ayudar a quien lo necesite ofreciendo una bonita y positiva experiencia!
