Description
Hello dear hosts,
I'm a mature woman originally from Brazil, living in USA for several years.
Since I retired as a teacher I have followed the path of self knowledge, studied and practiced everything I believe is essential for my physical, mental and spiritual well being.

I spent many years teaching Portuguese and Brazilian culture as I enjoy to exchange experiences with people from different cultures.

As I lived in Brazil, America and Europe, other than teaching Portuguese, I had the opportunity to develop other skills working with several projects and situations.
I'm grateful for having Workway as the best way to explore more places worldwide.

I practice yoga and mediation in a daly basis, enjoy preparing healthy meals, love to be in nature, hiking, swimming in rivers and beaches, watching birds, and also read inspiring and spiritual books.

If you think I could help you with your project, I will be more than happy to hearing from you.

Please, feel free to contact me for any question, further information or references.

Best regards,

Fatima Hansen

When I first went to to this host it was to spend four weeks, but soon after two weeks I received the call to stay longer.
I felt as I was in my own home living with a new family in harmony and understanding.
The work leaded by the resident staff was easy and everybody very helpful and kind.
I had plenty of time to rest, read and go for a daily… read more

I really enjoyed the timeI spent at True's place where I could contemplate the beauty of the sunset and the wonderful view of the lake. It was a good opportunity for me to be in nature, preparing and eating healthy food in a nice cooking house with everything provided.

Roy and Susan live in a beautiful comfortable house surrounded by trees with a beautiful view in a very peaceful Quinta in Portugal. I had a nice private bedroom and bathroom with everything provided. Everyday I used to go for a walk to contemplate the sunset and to breathe the fresh air that is so enjoyable over there.

They are so kind and easy… read more
