Description
¡Hola! Me llamo María, soy española y tengo 27 años. Estudié Trabajo Social y un posgrado en Terapia Asistida con Animales. Fue así como me acerqué a las dos áreas que más me gustan: trabajar con personas y con animales. El año pasado me convertí en adiestradora canina profesional (siempre con formación respetuosa). Me encantan todos los animales, pero los perros me roban el corazón.

More details about your skills
I have studied in the university social work, then I completed my studies with a post-degree in Animal Assisted Therapy. Although my main studies are related with people, I think I have a special feeling with animals and I really love spend my time with them.
Not only I speak spanish but also I speak catalan (my mother's family is from Catalonia) and I will be glad to have a language exchange with people from other countries.
Age

What else ...
I used to practise rhythmic gymnastics when I was a child and two years ago I start doing poledance, now I decided to do yoga.
I really like to do sport and to develop myself both fisically and mentally.
I also like to play board games or just chill and have an interesting conversation.

Amazing, this is how I can describe my stay at Gerard and Kate's (and their lovely animals) place 🥰

Maria is very smiling and happy person. It was fun to talk to her even it was for just a short time. I hope we can see her again. Best wishes.

İt has been a pleasure to end up in this place! İ spent only 10 days in there but enough to discover how cool it is :) The vibes of the house full of volunteers, the work in the farm (Abla, of course), the people you meet, the dogs... everything is lovely. I saw Burak only two times but enough to realise the type of person he is; we had to… read more

İ had such a nice and funny week💃 at the beginning I had problems with the communication by WhatsApp but when İ arrived everything was perfect! hahahah, the first day I met the other volunteers who explained me all we had to do.

İt was a pleasure to share this experience with Yağış, she is a really nice host who will always take care of you; I could travel around Istanbul during my stay and I always had recommendations from her; we watched together the Ottoman Empire series in Netflix every night and it was lovely:) I hope I can teach Spanish to all of you soon 🤣 thank… read more

volunteering at the shelter was a really nice experience, not only because the work is easy but also because of the people who are there working: they are incredible 🩷 the work is perfectly explained but the amount of work can change depending on the number of volunteers, anyway is always easy and smooth, basically cleaning and feeding (and… read more

If you are hesitating about going to this farm or not... JUST DO IT! Daniela and Beate are just amazing, I was supposed to be there for 3 weeks and go to another place but at the end I just decided to stay there for 2 weeks more, of course they were so welcoming and they didn't have any problem in hosting me during this time :)
The work is… read more

This was my first workaway experience and it couldn't have been better. I spent one month there and I am already thinking when I can come back; It's incredible how I felt this place like home since the first moment. The house is really cozy and really well decorated!! 😍
Renata is also a really welcoming person and even she was really bussy and… read more
