Description

Hello, my name is Érika, a passionate and dedicated individual with an eagerness of helping others through education. I am following my dream of travelling and at the same time making a positive impact on children's lives. This motivates me and helps me to grow as a person.

I'm a highly organised and conscious team player who has strong initiative of helping others.
I'm enthusiastic about learning new skills such as baking or learning a new language. On my spare time I enjoy reading self-development and psychology/coaching books.

In my 16 year carer as a cabin crew I learned the importance of customer care. I am a trustworthy individual who strives for excellence in everything I do.
I am also flexible, loyal, hardworking and committed to my work. I have had the opportunity of volunteering at a an orphanage for 5 years where I helped children developing their creativity through play/ arts and crafts. I’m passionate about cooking, being with people and I'm open minded.
I'd love the opportunity to contribute to a cause that uplifts and educates.

Let's connect and make a difference together.
