Description
Hey I'm Luiza,
I am from São Paulo, Brazil 🇧🇷 in my 20ties!
About me:
I graduated from a Steiner high school in 2015. And always had studied in the Waldorf philosophy, since my mom's belly! Seriously, my mom was a teacher at a Steiner kindergarten!
In 2016 I had an amazing experience travelling to Canada, where I could do 2 great workaways, one in a horse farm and the other one with a lovely 4yo girl!
In 2017- Moved back to Brazil just to see family but the world calls again, so I did my bacharel in modern languages and culture in Portugal! During this time I had the opportunity to travel (workawaying) for a whole semester in 2018 I had some experiences in France(where I learned French and of course their culture)! Made some incredible friends and a second family too.
I love experiencing life, So working with kids, people, animals, and even plants are definitely for me!
I'm up to all kinds of jobs and, even if I don't have the skill, I will try my best to help out.
(Besides my traveler life I'm also an activist for human and woman rights. I've been an ESl teacher for a while now and an event organizer. Now I'm starting to enter the social media management world and keep traveling and meeting new places, people, and cultures.)
