Description

Hi! I'm a 22-year-old from Catalonia, Spain, with a love for nature, learning, and new experiences. I studied Physics at the University of Barcelona, and have spent several years as both a Boy Scout and a Scout Leader, which has taught me the value of teamwork, responsibility, and resilience. I’m a positive, hardworking, and easygoing person, always eager to help and share knowledge with others.

I’m passionate about the outdoors and enjoy activities like hiking, rock climbing, fishing, and learning about geology, plants, and wildlife. I also have a strong interest in astronomy, programming, and music—I play Spanish Guitar.

I speak Catalan (my native language), Spanish, and I can manage in English, even if it's not perfect, I’m comfortable having conversations and sharing a laugh. I also understand some French with effort.

One important thing to mention is that I'm celiac, so I follow a strict gluten-free diet. However, I’m very used to this and it won’t be an issue—I love cooking and can easily manage my meals without any hassle.

I don't smoke, and I drink alcohol in moderation—although I do enjoy a good gluten-free beer ;D ! I'm also very good with children and have experience working with them.

Above all, I’m a quick learner and always excited to try new things. I believe the best part of traveling and volunteering is the opportunity to grow and connect with others through shared experiences. I look forward to contributing to your project and learning along the way!

More details about your skills

I have developed a variety of practical skills through different experiences. I know how to sail and kayak, and I regularly enjoy outdoor activities like rock climbing, slacklining, and skateboarding. I also enjoy fishing and have a good understanding of knot-tying. In addition, I have woodworking skills, particularly in creating fine, aesthetic engravings, and I’m experienced in chopping wood for firewood.

Regarding my work experience, I spent several years as a private tutor, helping students improve their academic performance. I also worked in a supermarket while balancing my studies. My time as a Boy Scout and Scout Leader helped me develop leadership abilities and outdoor survival skills, as well as teamwork and problem-solving.
