Description
I'm from Bolivia. I had the opportunity to visit many countries thanks to academic studies, and currently I am in China.

I have previous volunteering experiences. And even though I don't have practical skills like carpentering, plumbing or agricultural know-how, I put effort and will into getting along and doing the required work.

Besides work, the most important thing for me when volunteering is having the opportunity to be part of the host life, project, and culture. As a volunteer, I think it is better when one has clear working times and schedules.

I am calm, trustworthy, and sensible; I like to read; I love wildlife, sports, ancient civilisations, and spiritual stuff.

Hope to meet you!

I spend two weeks here and enjoyed the experience overall although I was sick most of the time.

The house is located in a small, calm and relaxing village far away from any bustling city, ideal for spending time with nature. There are beautiful mountains and places to explore as well as natural food products to taste. The internet connection at… read more

The two weeks I stayed at Chevrels place gave me good memories that are worth keeping.
By chopping wood, digging holes and picking blackberries & hazelnuts I learned valuable lessons about sharing your time & life experiences with others and being responsable with the enviroment.
I am glad that this was my first workaway experience.
