Description
Hi, I'm Marina :)
I'm 25 years old, I live in a small town in the centre of Spain. I've finished studying a university degree and I'm taking this year to travel, volunteer and learn everything that doesn't come out in the books.
I am passionate about animals. Since I was a child I have lived surrounded by them and I love living in nature, enjoying the countryside, walking with my dogs and learning everything I can about them.
I also love photography, doing sports, I like to practice yoga from time to time and above all I love meeting new people, enjoying life in community, getting to know new cities and learning about the culture of the places where I go.Interests

I studied law and political science at university. Then I did a master's degree to become a lawyer and worked for a year in a law firm specialising in animal protection and welfare. Therefore, I have a great capacity to manage information, resolve conflicts and take responsibility.
Apart from that job, I have done several voluntary work. In 2019 I was in a wildlife recovery centre in Bolivia with the NGO CIWY. There I learned how to manage an animal sanctuary, how to deal with wild animals and everything that caring for animals in need entails.
This past summer I volunteered in Italy in a small village in Cuneo. The tasks consisted of small maintenance and construction repairs where I learned how to use machines such as drills, pyrograph and others.
I also have experience working on my parents' family farm where we took care of two donkeys, a vegetable garden and a vineyard. Since I was a child I have also enjoyed drawing, painting and taking photos. I have hardly had any artistic training, but I try to cultivate it on my own.
I am an active and open-minded person and I like to learn new things. I like to participate in the organisation of tasks and to see how each idea or project grows.
As far as languages are concerned, I speak English as I have been taking classes since I was very young. I also learned Portuguese because I did an Erasmus year in Lisbon and now I am trying to learn Italian.Age

What else ...
I am looking forward to getting to know new environments, learning new activities, being in contact with different people and giving the best of myself wherever I go.
My goal during this course is to learn new skills, meet new people and get to know myself. I think I am a friendly, warm person with an active and collaborative mind. So here we go!Some more information
