Travelling
Description

I like mutual exchange of knowledge. I work normally in the development sector and I am a certified yoga teacher. I like to gain experience while I am as well outside of my normal work home situation. Staying at a place that is more linked to the culture and the region gives a improved experience.

I am a pet lover and I used to have cats, horses and dogs. Though since I start traveling I only enjoy them while taking care of the animals or having a riding tour with horses.

Other people think that I am a compassionate, nature lover, ( I like hiking), hard working, reliable and committed person. I speak fluently English and learning French and German (intermediate level) and Spanish (basics).
