**Volunteer and life experiences**

🧑‍🌾farming: I spent a month volunteering at an organic farm where I had the opportunity to immerse myself in various aspects of sustainable agriculture. From caring for sheep, goats, and chickens to working in the fields and greenhouse, I gained valuable hands-on experience in every aspect of farm life. Whether it was tending to the animals, planting and harvesting crops, or maintaining the greenhouse, each task contributed to my understanding of holistic farming practices. This experience solidified my passion for sustainable living and reinforced my commitment to contributing positively to the environment. I'm eager to continue learning and engaging in similar initiatives as I explore new opportunities.

🐾 Animal Lover: Having dedicated time to volunteering in animal shelters, I've nurtured a deep connection with our furry friends. Whether it's providing care, creating enriching environments, or simply sharing moments of joy, I believe in making a difference in the lives of animals.

🌳 Fruit Garden Worker: Worked in gardens as a teenager and There's something profoundly rewarding about tending to nature's bounty, and I find joy in putting care and effort to nurture thriving fruit gardens. *not as volunteer
