Activities i am interested in:

Brazil is the country of my ancestors. I'm traveling the country to reconnect with my roots and become fluent in Portuguese.

Description

Hello friends! My name is Jantzen, I’m 25 years old and I just left my IT Consulting job of two years to pursue my true passion of spiritual healing, yoga, and meditation. I'm choosing to spend this year in Brazil because it's where my mom's from. I grew up visiting my relatives each year and always felt a strong connection to this beautiful country. I'd like to return and stay for a prolonged period of time to become fluent in Portuguese and reconnect to my roots. My intention is to connect with like minded individuals/teachers whom I may learn from, receive guidance and gain inspiration. In return I’d be happy and grateful to provide assistance however you envision me being most useful. I firmly believe of being of service to others and that’s what I hope to be for you and your community. Namaste :)
