What else ...

Self motivated Artist, Interior Designer. Experience in the hospitality industry and Teaching English as a second language. I have always been a world traveler. At the age of six I moved with my Family to Lima Peru where I first began speaking Spanish. Next we moved to Mexico then to boarding school in India and finally Brasil were I graduated High school. I went to art school in the United States and graduated with a BFA in Interior Design.I worked for many years as a painter of decorative finishes and murals on private homes. I also helped my brother restore his old farm house in western Mass over the years. I took a break for a few years went to Key West Florida were I worked at a friends guest house doing everything from cleaning the rooms, laundry, making breakfast and taking care of the pets.I also helped guest with all the activities that the Key West has to offer.I moved back to Miami and got back into my Painting. Being an animal lover I volunteered at the Humane Society of Miami a few days a week. As will as Teaching English as a second language for 5 years as a volunteer at a local community center. I decided that I needed to hit the road again which is how I came back to India . I was a student teacher at a private language academy while studying for a TESOL, teaching English and preparing students for the IELTS exams, and volunteering at a neighborhood school which is where I found out how much I enjoy volunteer work which lead me to Workaway. I am very talented ,easy going and hard working .Don't let my age fool you,I know people 20 years younger than me you can't keep up. I love learning new things and languages, enjoy meeting people from everywhere in the world, love nature, animals and to explore. I have been back in India on and off for three years working on a variety of different artistic projects and teaching. I am presently In Jaisalmer, Rajasthan.
