Description

Hello, this is Aline from Belgium and I'm now in my gap year (august 2023 - June 2024), and I want to volunteer in some interesting projects in April. During this month, I would like to be involved in a project where I would feel helpful. I'm sure I will learn a lot of things about different topics and about myself !! So I will explore new things, places and ideas and this excites me.
I would be more than happy to learn the basics of a new language!

I don't have any specific country that I would like to discover, my only concern is the location of a project (no planes). I try my best to reduce my ecological footprint and I intend to travel with the train, bus, carpooling...

For me the most important thing is the project!
Meet new people, cultures, way of living bring me a lot of happiness. I also love contact with animals!

More details about your skills

I just finished high school and I'm 18 years old but I thing I can offer some abilities/skills :)
I followed a pretty normal education (public schools) and there is a lot to learn from and to unlearn (or change). After graduating, I went in a Folk High School in Denmark (International People’s College). It’s a school with different nationalities between the students. I really enjoy this multicultural community! There I learned more about: painting, music, writing, debates, meditation...

I love languages and I speak french (first language), dutch and english. I would be more than happy to teach one of them to children or anyone else who is interested.

I also love to take pictures & videos!

I enjoy the compagny of childrens, at home I followed a training to be an animator. It was super nice and I learned a lot about kids (3 to 13 years old).

I've worked one month on a farm with many different animals (donkeys, horses, camels, lamas, pigs, sheeps, goats, chickens, poneys). There was a lot of work but I really liked doing it. This stay helped me gaining confidence (necessary when you're close to big animals :-).

I have the 'skill' to talk a lot about anything, I just love conversations (the deep ones are my favorites).
