Description
Hi. I am an easy going person, who loves to be in the nature and wants to learn more about other cultures.
Talking to people about their culture and society is the best way to understand a diferent country and I like talking to the locals and learn.
I am also used to hard work and do the tasks in a resposable amd calm way alway with a smile in the face.
I think it is important that we make a positive diference where I go retributing the hospitalily that I receive.
I studied law but never worked as a Lawer and then I wanted to be a history teacher, 3 year in colegue but i didnt finish it,
I play drums a little of acustic guitar.
I like sports in general, and I pratice football often, stand up paddle, walks in the woods, camping, and sometimes I like take my bike and go for long trips, camping in the wild, small villages or on the road(i probably clicled more than 4 thousand km in the last 3 years).
I also like playing chess and board games.
I had my first workaway experience in Portugal and Italy in 2011 after living in Ireland for 2 years and a half as a english student(I also lived in lisbon for almost 1 year).That experience was very worthed for me, as I could make new freinds and know places and life stiles that made me a better person.
I was raised in the amazonia region, not in the midle of the jungle but in a small towns, despite I have never been a farmer i always helped my Family in the vegetable garden, the idea of buying a farm grow when I was in my 20's and in 2016 my brother and i bought 3 hectars of land in Natal-brazil, and since then we are building our space, doing agroforest, ecohouses and accepting volunteers (workawayers and others)
Check it out on Instagram @comunidadedasformigas (it mean the ant comunity)
Now, in 2023 I am back to workaway as a volunteer becouse I want to have more experiences in countries that I always wanted to go and doing this as a volunteer I can learn and teach and make the world a little better.
