Description

Hello everyone!! :)

I'm Nora, a Swedish Chilean 21-year-old, born in Sweden. This year I've been traveling with my saved up money, visiting my family and exploring my roots in Chile. While traveling around in Chile and other parts of South America, I realized how much I loved exploring and learning about new people and cultures. To not only go to a place for a vacation, but to get to know the customs, the people and the everyday life. I love adventures, learning and sharing experiences and meaningful projects. Hiking, animals, nature, food and arts are some of the things I like the most.

This year I've spent 6 weeks outside of Trondheim, Norway on a self-sustainable farm volunteering. I learnt a lot about food preservation and gardening. I also sailed and fished with nets in the fiord close to where I was staying. I had a lovely time there.

I am currently doing a workaway in Las palmeras, Almería, in the south of Spain!

More details about your skills

In Sweden i've worked as a barista and in the kitchen to a café, in a lunch restaurant preparing and serving food. I've also worked at a local theatre, serving light food and beverages as well as being a theatre host. As a theatre host I was responsible for coordinating other staff, communicating with the technicians and making sure everything runs smoothly.

With three younger siblings I have a lot of experience with younger kids. I'm used to the responsibilities that comes with younger kids; cooking food, helping with homework, picking up from school and just spending time together.

I speak Swedish, English and some Spanish. I'd love to learn as many languages as my brain can handle!

I enjoy taking care of animals, gardering and preserving food (for example making juice, jam or fruit leather). Being able to work outside is definitely a plus, but not a must.

I like doing different types of wood projects like making cutting boards or fixing old windows. My dad is a carpenter and sometimes I help him with different projects, such as transporting material or chopping wood etc.

Painting and working with clay are also two of my big interests. Any kinds of DIY projects where you have to use your imagination, problem solving and be creative are definitely up my alley.

Above all, I'm always eager to learn new things. If you are willing to share your knowledge, then I'd love to listen!

What else ...

This year, I'm on a mission to improve my Spanish and my end goal is staying somewhere in Spain. I haven't explored much of Spain and I'm exited to see both the north and south, east and west.
