Description
¡Hola!
My name is Martina and I grew up in a village in northern Spain, Asturias.
After many years living in different cities, I felt the need to return to my roots and commit to a healthier, quieter life, more in direct contact with nature and, ultimately, more in harmony with my inner self and feelings.
I left my life in the city behind and spent a year living between a small town and camping in the Asturian mountains, where I had the opportunity to reconnect deeply with nature and with a simpler lifestyle and learn to value what is truly essential.
A year ago, I began a new path of learning and self-discovery through a process that allows me to live in a healthier and more respectful way towards the environment, animals, and people.
I spent seven months in the mountains of Barcelona at an Animal Sanctuary as a resident volunteer, where I had the opportunity to learn a lot about the welfare and care of vulnerable animals, as well as about community life and caring for the volunteers for whom I was also responsible.
For the last five months, I have been volunteering on the island of La Palma, in the Canary Islands, on different projects, learning about sustainability, gardening, farm maintenance, and permaculture.
I would like to continue on this path of discovery, learning, and knowledge, taking part in projects that contribute positively to this world and investing my time, energy, and experiences so that we can both grow and enrich each other.
I consider myself a sociable and calm person who easily adapts to new places and experiences.
I enjoy both my time alone and in peace and quiet, as well as meeting and spending time with like-minded people, learning about their life stories, their projects, and goals, and being able to be part of them and that process.
I love being in nature, the mountains, the beach, the woods, hiking, yoga, music, reading, walking, silence, conversations, getting to know new cultures, places, and people, and learning through all these experiences.
If you have read this and think I might be a good fit for your project, that we can share and enrich each other, or if you have any questions , please do not hesitate to write to me.
¡Hasta pronto!

What else ...
I am interested in contributing to and learning from projects that bring positive change and care for the environment, animals, and people alike.
I have a degree in Management Assistance and extensive experience in customer service, as well as in planning and organizing work teams and Human Resources.
I consider myself a proactive and organized person. I like to get involved in projects, understand their purpose and objectives, and try to find improvements and solutions to any challenges that may arise during their cycle.
