Description

Hi!
I am currently traveling in East Africa and I would love to meet new people and learn the language and culture here. I would describe myself as a very outgoing, enthusiastic and caring person. I love meeting new people and having good conversations with people with very different lives. Next to that I want to contribute my time and my skills to projects here. I have studied international development and worked as a researcher in social sciences. I hope to use these skills where necessary ,but also to learn new skills like community building and eco farming.
