Description

I'm a person who easily gets excited about new things. I'm curious, I like to ask questions and acquire new skills. I have my little projects that I take care of, and I love to help friends, family, and foreigners whenever I can. My projects are about food saving: I give workshops about preservation of food, organise banquets where we save food, we prepare and cook it with volunteers, and then share it with the people of the town. My background is in food science, and recently I started to study again to become a nutritionist.

One of my other passions is music and dancing.
I also enjoy to relax and chill.. I'm open to new people that have a different perspective in life. One can learn so much.

When I travel, I want to be a part of the society of the country I'm visiting, or, in other words, get close to people's lives in other parts of the world.

Regarding my volunteering activities, I volunteered for over 10 years as a supervisor in camps for children. As a student, I was active in different student organisations. I organised, with 13 other students, a 4-day event in the mountains with 400 participants. I brewed beer in a brewing association, from Lager, Amber, IPA, Porter, Stout... everything.

I also volunteered at a lot of music festivals, where I learned to build up stages, communicate with guests. I enjoyed this a lot, as it combines my two passions, music and helping.

When I travelled in South America, I worked in a hostel in Medellín and Palomino, Colombia, and in Bocas del Toro, Panama. In a coffee farm close to Finlandia, Colombia, and probably I forgot some volunteering activities.

5 years ago, I did a Yoga teacher training in San Rafael, Colombia. Since then, I'm teaching in a community centre – Yoga based on a collection, so that everyone can join – even the ones who have little. I found love for meditation and my everyday practice.

I like to meet my hosts in a video call before I commit myself to a volunteering activity. Looking forward to get to know you!
