  • Description

    Hello! I'm a 36-year-old Peruvian seeking a unique cultural experience through Workaway. I'm a proud father of two, and I believe in the importance of creating a warm, friendly, and respectful environment, which is what I hope to find with a host family.

    I'm a graduate engineer with a deep passion for IT and technology, with experience in carpentry and home repair as well. I'm quick to learn and very hands-on, so I can be a great help with any tech-related or maintenance tasks you might have. I also have a keen interest in board games and would love to share some of my favorites with you and your family. Back home, my family includes a cat and a hamster, so I'm very comfortable and caring with pets. I'm an animal lover through and through!

    I consider myself a music lover with eclectic taste. I enjoy everything from European pop to Japanese rock from the 1980s and 1990s. If you have a passion for music, we'll surely have plenty to talk about.

    I have an intermediate level of English (B2) and am a native Spanish speaker, so I can communicate with you and even help if you're looking to practice your Spanish. I'm a non-smoker and do not use illegal substances. I only drink occasionally during special celebrations.

    I'm a responsible, respectful, and reliable individual ready to immerse myself in a new culture and make a positive contribution to your home. I look forward to the possibility of joining your family and sharing our experiences.

  • What else ...

    In my free time, I really enjoy playing strategy board games like Catan, Wingspan, and Ticket to Ride. I love them because they're a fun way to challenge my brain and a great way to connect with people. I'm also into 3D printing and have a lot of fun making little accessories and toys for my family. It's a creative hobby that lets me bring my ideas to life and pay close attention to the details.
