Description

My name is Virginia, I'm 67 years old, and I live in the rural area of ​​Chiloe Island in southern Chile. I've hosted workayers from around the world, and the experience has been wonderful. You can see my host profile, where I describe what I do at my place. I'm currently traveling through Russia, Mongolia, and China, and I'd like to experience volunteering in a peaceful place where I can help and/or make a contribution, drawing on my experience as an agronomist, where I've dedicated myself to developing projects with small farmers, especially promoting organic agriculture, conservation, and ecological restoration.

More details about your skills

I am a 66-year-old woman currently traveling through Asia, and I am interested in helping with fieldwork and/or household chores. I am an agronomist and have dedicated myself to promoting and implementing agroecology in small-scale farming in my country and other Latin American countries. I currently live on Chiloé Island in Chile and focus primarily on native forest restoration through the propagation and planting of native species. I have hosted volunteers on several occasions and am therefore familiar with this type of exchange. In addition to my work experience, I am good at tidying, cleaning, and organizing whatever is needed. I enjoy working in the garden, preparing delicious salads, and cooking whatever is required.
