Description
My name is Franklin from Peru. I have grown up half of my life in Peru and the other in Europe.
I have been travelled to different countries in the world, while I do volunteer jobs in different fields. I have experience working in Café and learning Barista skills, teaching English and Spanish, and photography and videography for the social media. I also worked and learned permaculture on a farm in Japan and I did gardening and general maintenance in different houses.
I decided long time ago to discover the World making Workaway in different countries. I finished my degree in Tourism and Economy in Spain, after that I moved to Germany to improve my German. During my degree, I worked as a receptionist in Spain and England.
Moreover I finished Programs in Administration and Finance in Spain and I worked in Logistic Department in Spain and Netherlands.
When I was in my hometown (Huancayo-Peru), I helped to remodel my own house, because of this I know about electricity, painting, repair, pluming and laying a laminate floor, moreover I enjoy helping in my family garden.
Two years ago, I became a Spanish teacher, which is my passion. At the same time, I continue to learn more about my other passion: coffee. For example, I worked in a Café in Germany, where I learned barista skills, and in 2025 I attended a barista workshop in Florence.
Beyond that, I love traveling as much as possible and discovering different cultures along the way. Traveling has made me open-minded, friendly, and generous, and it’s taught me to fully enjoy life. One of the things I value most when I travel is sharing my own culture while learning from others.
In my free time, I enjoy playing guitar, hiking and trekking, dancing, photography, cooking, gardening and tasting coffee. I’m also very interested in continuing to learn about education, coffee, permaculture, and I’m always happy to share my experiences.
Feel free to contact me 😊
Warm Regards,
Franklin Toledo -
