Description

I am a 20 year old student who is currently studying the second year of law in Barcelona, Spain (Catalonia).

I am an easy-going person that loves to enjoy life. I am a very curious person, and especially interested in other cultures. I am very open minded and love to meet new people. To add something about work; I'm a very determined girl which loves accomplish things whatever they are (once I start a job I like to finish it well to appreciate the satisfaction).

I'm really looking to get out of my comfort zone, explore, and meet new people. My goal is to travel to as many countries as I can to learn more about different cultures. I am pretty laid back and easy to get along with.

I’m looking for interesting opportunities in which I hope to apply my skills, develop them further and hopefully learn new valuable experiences as I am an adventurous person. I’m an open-minded and flexible young person who’s punctual, independent and ready for new challenges. I like taking care of kids, helping people at home, or DIY projects. Also, I really love pets so I would be glad to take care of yours (if you have one).

I really love to make plans, especially outdoor activities in my free time, but what I like the most is meeting friends, reading some books, listening to music, and staying with my doggy.

What else ...

I love sports like running, swimming, cycling, surfing, hiking and so on. Besides sports I love cooking, have a good talk, etc.

I’ve always loved pets. I have one dog at home whom I take care of her every day. I can also do the tasks of feeding, walking, taking care of the well-being of the dogs.

WHY I DECIDED TO WORKAWAY:
While I do understand that this might not be the best time to travel given the pandemic, it is the best time for me as I have holidays and before coming back to university I want to explore the world, learn new skills and really understand what I want to do with my future through real life experience.

I was born and raised in Spain (Catalonia), in a very quiet place but I really want a change in my life, because it has lately been a little bit monotonous. I want to reconnect with nature and learn how to live by working with nature rather than against it. I want to have a connection with people that value empathy and the community over the greed and selfishness I see in the city.

The reason why I want to travel is not to go on a vacation but rather to make a valuable life experience that I will carry with me for the rest of my life through the knowledge, skills, culture and people that i will come across in this adventure.
