Description

Hello! My name is Debra. My deep desire is to create a positive social impact and contribute to making the world a better place. I find immense joy in working with organizations and initiatives that strive to address pressing societal issues, whether it's alleviating hunger, promoting education, or advocating for environmental sustainability. The satisfaction of knowing that my efforts, no matter how small, are contributing to meaningful change is incredibly fulfilling. This drive to make a difference fuels my enthusiasm and commitment to every project I undertake.

I am passionate about cultural exchange and its role in fostering diversity and inclusion. Engaging with people from different backgrounds broadens my perspective and helps me appreciate the richness of our global community. I believe that through understanding and embracing our differences, we can build stronger, more inclusive societies. Sharing stories, traditions, and experiences with hosts and fellow Workawayers not only enriches my own life but also contributes to a more connected and harmonious world. This exchange of cultures is a powerful tool for breaking down barriers and building bridges between people from all walks of life.
