Description

Hi! My name is Joana, nice to meet you all :)

I love traveling, discovering new places, different cultures and meeting people and their particular ways of seeing the world.

Two years ago I traveled around Europe as a workawayer, and it was the best experience I've ever had. I learnt a lot, about people, countries, cultures, and also a lot of myself! It's amazing how freedom can teach you that much.

Now that I have again some time I am planning my next trip: the destination I have been dreaming about all my life, Japan.

Since I was a child I have been marveled by Japanese culture. Their philosophy and believes, literature, gastronomy, cinema and all other types of audiovisuals, music, language, etc.

It’s time to make that dream come true!

More details about your skills

I am a Physics and Maths teacher, so I have kind of deep knowledge in this subjects and, of course, things related by teaching itself. I studied Physics at Barcelona’s University, specializing in Applied Physics and I started my master's degree to qualify as a teacher.

I also love doing things with my hands, so I love crafts. I have worked a bit with wood, but I am more into painting and drawing. I can also play a bit ukulele and I love gardening. Where I live I have a urban garden and is so wonderful to see the vegetables grow. I can cook, too.

I worked for a charity project running their social media and organizing events, so I know a bit about event organization, graphic design, website creation and programming. I also worked in customer service at a cafe, a restaurant, a hostel, and a book shop.

In my free time I write, mostly novels, and I hope to be able to publish some day. In my journeys I used to get inspiration for my writtings and I keep a travel journal.
