Description
Hello! My name is Luis, a passionate traveler from Colombia with a deep interest in yoga, meditation, and cultural exchange.
I enjoy meaningful connections, learning from new cultures, and exploring the beauty of nature. Over the past few years, I’ve traveled to Peru, Indonesia, and lived in Australia for 1 year and 7 months, where I gained unforgettable memories visiting places like Machu Picchu, Lake Titicaca, and Bali’s spiritual temples and sanctuaries. These experiences have shaped my appreciation for diversity, traditions, and personal growth.
My goal is to deepen my yoga and meditation practice and eventually become a certified yoga instructor. I’m also looking to improve my English and connect with people from different cultures. In my free time, I enjoy reading, painting, writing, and walking in nature, all of which help me stay creative and balanced.
I’ll be available starting January 17, 2025, as I’ll be traveling to Bali, Indonesia, to begin a journey exploring the Southeast Asia region and parts of Europe. I’m excited to contribute my energy and adaptability to your project, whether it’s helping at a yoga retreat, assisting with daily tasks, or sharing meaningful conversations.
Let’s create something meaningful together!

More details about your skills
I consider myself an organized and clean person who enjoys working in a team and learning new things. My academic and professional background has shaped my adaptability, problem-solving skills, and ability to take on different tasks:
• Academic background: I’m an Industrial Engineer with a specialization in Human Resources from Colombia. My studies have equipped me with strong organizational and planning skills, as well as experience in working with and managing people.
• Kitchen experience: I worked as a kitchen hand in Australia for 1 year and 6 months, focusing on cleaning, organizing, and assisting in food preparation. I handled tasks like cutting ingredients, preparing pizzas, tacos, desserts, and hamburgers, and ensuring everything was ready and packed before cooking. This experience taught me the importance of teamwork and efficiency in fast-paced environments.
• Basic maintenance and problem-solving: I enjoy learning how things work and using tools to try and repair or understand products. I’m curious by nature and always willing to learn how to improve my practical skills.
• Teamwork and collaboration: Both in Colombia and Australia, I’ve worked in environments where teamwork was essential to achieving goals, especially in the kitchen, where coordination is key to completing tasks and meeting deadlines.
• Yoga and meditation: I’ve been practicing yoga and meditation on my own for the past 7 months. I’ve learned techniques through videos and self-practice, and I’d be happy to assist beginners with basic poses, breathing exercises, and mindfulness practices.
• Creative skills: While creativity isn’t my strongest area, I’m interested in developing these skills further and exploring new ways to express myself.
• Social and cultural exchange: Although I can be shy at first, I’m eager to connect with others, learn about new cultures, and improve my English speaking skills. I’m especially drawn to opportunities where I can collaborate with communities and gain hands-on experience in gardening, farming, or other sustainable practices.
I’m open to learning and trying new things, whether it’s helping with outdoor tasks, farm work, or contributing to community projects. I bring a positive attitude, a willingness to adapt, and an enthusiasm for gaining new experiences and making meaningful connections.

What else ...
I enjoy playing board games, as I believe they are a great way to interact and share fun moments with others. I also have a passion for swimming, which I practiced alongside basketball during my teenage years. Currently, I’m trying to stay active and incorporate both activities into my routine whenever possible. I believe that sports and games are a great way to connect with people, stay healthy, and have fun!
