Description

Hello world!
My name is Laura, I'm from Bolivia and I'm 36 years old.
There are no borders, a friend told me once, so in that way, in 2019 I started - and I hope so - my life as a traveler, as an adventure and also as a way of life.
I was living in Suez-Egypt volunteering and I would like to know more places in Egypt and other countries as well.
I'm an active person who enjoys going outdoors. I have a strong passion for the environment projects. I love exploring new landscapes and trying out new things. I learn skills quickly and I am eager to learn new things.
Through Workaway I want to share with families, people who cross the road, learn of them and also contribute with knowledge and skills.
Thank you my friend!
