    Travelling

  • Description

    A happy person with a positive mindset 😁, who's ready to share knowledge, skills and happiness with the world 🌏.
    Eager to learn new skills and willing to contribute something to the world.

    I enjoy nature & simple things in life. I'm a very social person who is always in for a chat and some fun/laughing.

    Lot of experience in the hospitality and it is always a pleasure to help people and make them happy. I also did volunteer work in Sri Lanka at a Primary School.
    Studied Mechanical Engineering, specialised in Watertreatment. I chose this specialization, because of my interest in water processes and sustainability. Water is already one of the main topics as we speak. Not only drinking water, but also waste water, sea- and riverwater, processwater and so on.. Sustaining a steady and healthy environment will be more challenging in the coming years, and I would love to contribute in achieving a healthy world.

    That explains my main reason to work as a volunteer. Helping people and the local community, animals, nature and the world, while traveling & discovering🌎 ❤️
