Description
Hi, I'm Joella, I'm 18 years old and I just finished high school last year. I'm taking a gap year because I feel like I need a break from school and busy city life (sort of a reset). I want to practice my Spanish, learn about Spanish culture, and experience new things. I love nature, animals, swimming, being active, meeting new people, trying new things, etc. I'm motivated, social, secure in my identity, and I'm excited to gain life experience and to get to know different perspectives.

More details about your skills
I don't necessarily have a specific expertise, but I'm smart, handy, I understand quickly, and I'm a very fast learner. I can take care of animals, I can do any household chores, I have some experience with gardening, and I've built some things with wood before. But I can help wherever you need me, I pick things up very fast when explained to me :)
