Description

I'd describe myself as an easy-going, attentive, reliable, caring and funny person.

What else ...

I like being outside in nature as well as taking strolls around a new town/city or just Netflix and chill. I do know how to take care of houseplants, as I have a little jungle in my home and was a photographer for some years. Also I do have a medical education, so if anything happens, I usually know how to help as first responder. In that regards I also have experience with elderly people and worked as an assistant for a Paraplegic the last two years.
The feedback from parents is that I am great with children and entertaining them.
