Beschreibung

It is a pleasure to meet you, and I thank you for taking the time to read my profile. I’m motivated by meaningful connections, especially with people who carry deep stories, traditions, and wisdom. I am a social scientist, and my research involves various communities. I’m committed to listening with respect and care to everyone's story if they are willing to share. I find joy in quiet mornings, shared meals, and learning from others—whether through conversation, laughter, or working side by side.

I’m happiest when I feel part of something purposeful, especially when it involves nature, community, and mutual support. I value honesty, kindness, and the chance to contribute in small but meaningful ways. Staying with a family while I do my research is not just practical—it’s a way to honour the heart of what I’m studying: how relationships shape place.

Mehr Infos zu meinen Sprachinteressen
Language is the doorway to a culture; it provides meaning, history, and reveals how cultures are woven together. I can teach and have taught English. My goal is to become fluent in Spanish; therefore, I want to learn as much as possible.

Was könntest du arbeiten?

I’m deeply connected to nature and have spent much of my life working in and around it—whether through research, gardening, or simply living close to the land. I find peace and purpose in outdoor tasks and don’t shy away from hard work, whether it’s physical labour, caretaking, or problem-solving.
I’ve managed residential properties and worked in manufacturing, so I’m comfortable with hands-on tasks, organizing spaces, and adapting to different routines. I enjoy cooking, cleaning, and assisting with daily tasks, and I’m happy to support families with children or elderly relatives, as well as all sorts of pets, from iguanas to dogs.
I bring a steady, respectful presence and a willingness to pitch in wherever I’m needed. Whether it’s tending a garden, preparing meals, or sharing stories, I show up with care, curiosity, and a strong sense of responsibility.

Was noch ...

I enjoy quiet evenings with a good book, especially stories that explore culture, history, or faith. I love walking in nature—whether it’s forest trails, coastal paths, or just tending a garden. I find peace in simple things: birdsong, fresh coffee, and meaningful conversation.
I’m not much for flashy entertainment, but I do enjoy board games that bring people together—like Uno, Scrabble, or anything that sparks laughter and connection. I also enjoy journaling, listening to music, and learning from others’ life experiences.
I value honesty, kindness, and a sense of purpose. I’m looking forward to sharing space respectfully and learning from the rhythms of daily life in Costa Rica.
