Description
Hi there! Just as a brief resume of me: One year ago I came back to Spain after one year and a half volunteering around the world, in oder to get my driving license and refill with energy and love my life's filtre, now that I have all what I need in my hands, my dream is to know and visit our beautiful mother earth as much as I can and meet amazing people who believe in the good that this life can offer and share with them experiences and create great moments together. Above all I love to help, as I get help from others during my adventures, I want to return this energy to the universe.

I am a very open minded person, really responsible, creative and sentitive with a lot of character and power. I have a Bachellor in Arts and I work as a freelancer tattoo artist but I work meanwhile in many other things (at the moment I work as kiosk dependant and waitress aswell) . I have many passions like: mythology, arqueology, philosophy, nature, animals, art, music, dance, adventures, travel... always willing to learn new cultures and languages.

I can speak as mother tongue spanish but also english, italian and german (and my small dialect "valencian" aswell!). I want to learn japanese, portugese, french, russian and much more. I want to share what I know or what I can do and try to learn new things. For me being with the locals is the most wanted experience, meeting people from the world teaches me so much and I fullfill the need that my soul has to go deep far in the day by day antropology. My personal quest is to learn the myths, procedure and skills of tattoos in all the cultures I can get to know and above this, the connection that all the humans beigns has around the world.

I am not picky at all and I can adapt quite fast, faster if you show me with love an patience, as everything grows stronger with love. It would be a pleasure if you want to meet me and you let me get to know you, and hopefully, we will create together many good memories. I like honesty above all and try to find solutions instead of problems. Let's be fair and smooth one with each other and tell me what can we do to make things better. Communication is always the key to understand, thank you so much for reading about me and spend some time to get to know me, but nothing like being in person to feel the vibes ;)

My best skils are related with art, I can make some graphic design, drawing, painting, sculpturing, engraving and tattooing. I am an outgoing person and I learn really quick every new task, getting along with people of all ages and genders. I've been a volunteer around the world (mexico, hawaii, japan, new zealand, australia, thailand...) and is the most satisfing experience for me. I want to learn more about permaculture, farming and building if possible, I am a stronge woman and I want to be ambivalent, so I am wiling to challenges.

Oh GREAT Greta, the one and only special human being with the most beautiful heart ❤.
Laughs are just inevitable with her around, from the moment we met i knew she was going to be a keeper.
Any job we had for her it was never too hard (including chopping wood), she got it done and dusted then she asked for more. Mas que mulher!!!! Ehheh so much… read more

Cariños míos!!!

Joana and Daniel became part of my world family and I miss them so much already, I highly recommend them and their project!

The joy in their hearts and the way they work so hard to achieve all their beautiful dreams is impeccable.
Their energy is amazing and the work with them doesn't feel like it, they are so easy going, loving… read more and caring that is like you are helping your own family.

The jobs they need to be done are really easy: fix some fences, feed the animals and take care of the veggie garden and baby trees around, help cooking and cleaning, very easy work indeed.

They were Workawayers aswell so they know really well how to be a great host and the needs of the volunteers, you cannot be in better hands. They will help in anything they can and this is a blessing! Their place is so beautiful too, you can meet Flappy the platypus or go walk up the hill until the lovely creek down, they live in a peaceful place surrounded by nature.

Was really nice to see how they improved their house with a new fire oven for winter, when Daniel builds seems like everything is simple and easy, he is an amazing man. The love of Joana towards the chickens and turkeys is admirable, the animals loves her so much and they are so tame and cute! I love her smile and laugh aswell, as she is from Portugal and I am from Spain was really nice to share the fire from our cultures. And I love all the support and laughs we shared, playing cards in the night with delicious chai.

Was amazing to go with them and meet their friends and also being able to share a beautiful hike in the Snowy South. They are really fit and always ready for new adventures whenever they have time. I had also the great pleasure to work and share great moments with the lovely Lucie, from Chec Republic, I am so blessed to have new sisters and brothers!

The best veggies I ever ate are from their garden, you can taste the love they received and the meals we share are the top ones I ever had, Daniel makes his own beer aswell, I was also baking bread, all homemade tastes better...my goodness I can't explain in words how precious are this moments to me: sharing the best food and drinks with the best people I could find in Tassie, with the best sunsets 🤗

I know how lucky I am to had the opportunity to work with them and I wish their project grows and gets bigger and better, I will visit them whenever I will have the chance, in quality of a friend.

I will carry in my heart and soul the memories of my short time with them and I hope they will fulfill all their dreams as they are working really hard and deserve it.

With all my love until the next time we will meet!

Warm regards,
Greta

Iwao is an amazing person with so much to share. I have learnt a lot in only one week there. I really recommend his restaurant. The place is small but is so beautiful and charming that you wont bother about. You have to share room at the moment. But in the future he will have some new rooms for the volunteers. The food there is amazing and he… read more

It was my first time doing a workaway and it was a wonderful experience.

The place is beautiful, in the middle of a little mountain. And I enjoyed the place so much, I love the little forest with the zen temple at the back and the Rainbow valley it is so cool.

The work was very easy going, most of the time cleaning and getting the rooms for… read more
