Activities i am interested in:
Hi there! I'm Antonio, a 27-year-old from Spain. I recently spent a year and a half living in New Zealand, and now I'm about to start a new chapter in Dublin this September.
Description
Before I go to Dublin in September, I'm eager to explore Ireland, experience its rich culture, and connect with local communities. I'm no stranger to rolling up my sleeves and getting hands-on! I've worked in hospitality, including at an Icebar, so I'm comfortable in fast-paced environments—serving guests, managing bookings, and keeping a friendly atmosphere. I also spent a summer as a shepherd, which taught me resilience and care for animals. On the practical side, I know how to chop wood, mow lawns, and handle basic maintenance tasks, thanks to my time living independently. I’m also a computer engineer and will be pursuing a master's degree in IoT in Dublin.
Since I'll be traveling on a budget, I'm especially interested in placements that offer accommodation and meals, and if there's a chance for some pocket money, even better! I'm adaptable, hardworking, and excited to be part of a meaningful exchange.Interests

What else ...
In my free time, you'll often find me hiking, mountain biking, or trail running. I also love reading and winding down with a good movie. Exploring the outdoors and sharing stories by a warm fire sounds like the perfect way to experience Ireland.
