Description
Hello! I’m a 20 year old traveler from the USA with a passion for gaining a deeper sense of culture and community by connecting with local people and fellow travelers alike. I fell in love with traveling as a homeschooled student and am now looking for enriching moments and meaningful connections to build my character as a young adult. I recognize the importance of cultural respect and the positive impact it can serve to both the society and to myself. I look forward to the experiences I can gain as a volunteer throughout my adventure.

You are loved and safe in that space. You are looked after and respected. I had fallen ill for two weeks, and I was always cared for in my recovery. When I was finally back to… read more

Having Jonas at home was a great success. Hard worker, good conversation, soooo respectful, and you don't need to show anything twice, as he is a fast learner.
Don't hesitate hosting him is a great guy!!!
