Description
Hi! 👋
I'm Juan, Spanish, 28 y.o., and I'm in a life-changing period.
I love cheap plans such as trekking, reading, listening to music, and writing.
Why? One may wonder. It's just because I like spending every cent I earn on traveling.
In 2018, I spent two weeks in Edinburgh volunteering as a pro-EU and anti-Brexit campaigner. Unfortunately, we didn't have the expected political impact.
In early 2023, I had my first WorkAway experience as a volunteer at a hostel in Tirana, Albania, where I learned the basics of reception and hostel management. During my time at this hostel, I also held a full-time job in the marketing department of an Albanian company.
In June 2023, I decided to switch gears and relocate to rural Ireland. I had the opportunity to manage a beautiful campsite, thanks to WorkAway, which proved to be an incredibly enriching experience.
Now, I'm actively seeking a work or volunteering opportunity in the travel industry that will allow me to explore new countries starting in November 2023.

EN:
I graduated with honors with my BA Degree in Tourism and then ended up with a Master's in E-Commerce. Both at Universidad Complutense de Madrid. After some years of working in digital marketing and having failed start-up my own business, I have no idea what I want to do in my life.
Nonetheless, I can't stand still while life goes by. These days, I'm improving my Adobe pack skills and starting a second BA Degree in Journalism.

Me licencié con matrícula de honor en Turismo y luego terminé con un Máster en Comercio Electrónico. Ambos en la Universidad Complutense de Madrid. Después de algunos años trabajando en marketing digital y habiendo fracasado en la puesta en marcha de mi propio negocio, no tengo ni idea de lo que quiero hacer en mi vida.
Sin embargo, no puedo quedarme quieto mientras la vida pasa. Actualmente, estoy mejorando mis conocimientos de Adobe Pack y empezando una segunda licenciatura en Periodismo.

He came to Tirana to volunteer at our hostel and ended up staying here in Tirana for a portion of his life. Even if he is not a volunteer anymore, he will come to our place every now and then and help us when he's available.
He's easygoing and tech-savvy. A perfect fit for any Workaway experience.
The staff members are easy-going, hard-working people. Besides working here, they are tour guides, so they will give the best advice on traveling around Albania and the Balkans.
It's not a party hostel, which is great for me.
It's pretty close to the city center.
I would strongly recommend it to… read more
