Description
Hello! 😊
This is my second year as a Workaway volunteer, and as always, I like to keep my profile updated.
My name is Mariano, and I'm from Argentina. I lived in Brazil for quite a while, and because I love traveling, I've now spent more than a year volunteering in different countries across Europe.
I'm a calm, easygoing person who enjoys helping with the daily activities. I'm not a professional in every task, but I always do my best to learn something new. I like asking questions, and if I don't know something, I'll often look it up and learn by myself.
When it comes to working hours, I like to be clear and organized. I believe it's important to respect the agreed schedule because I also need time to rest, study English, and enjoy my free time. I always do my part and take my responsibilities seriously.
At the moment, I'm studying English to improve my communication. My progress is a bit slow because I'm often busy looking for my next volunteer opportunity or working hard to save money so I can continue traveling. Even so, I always bring a positive attitude, motivation, and dedication, and my hosts usually notice the effort I put into everything I do. So, I only ask for a little patience while I keep improving. 😊
One important thing I'd like to mention is that I value honesty and mutual respect. If the volunteer position is unpaid, I expect both of us to respect the hours and conditions we agreed on before I arrive. If I notice that the workload becomes significantly different from what was originally discussed, I'll bring it up respectfully so we can find a solution together. If we can't reach an agreement, I would rather leave on good terms than continue in a situation that isn't fair for either of us.
I've had many wonderful volunteering experiences and also a few difficult ones. Those experiences taught me the importance of setting healthy boundaries while continuing to be kind, responsible, and committed.
If the position is paid, of course I understand that the expectations and responsibilities may be different, and I'm happy to fulfill them as agreed.
Thank you for taking the time to read my profile. If you have any questions, I'd be happy to answer them. I hope to meet you soon! -

What else ...
I have a university education, but I decided to explore the world to meet new people and make friends in many countries.
I already have plenty of experience as a volunteer in different countries. I’m quite new to this platform, but I’ve used another one where I’ve joined several projects.
I love learning languages, and I’d be happy to teach you everything I know in Portuguese and, of course, Spanish.
I enjoy learning, and right now I’m studying Italian and also English. I’d really appreciate your help to keep improving. -

Eris and Ani are incredible people — they always asked if I was okay and if I needed anything, they were ready to help with kindness.
During my time there, I had a great experience.
