More details about your skills

I've always been used to help in my farmily farm. Subsequently, I’m used to chores related with farm animals, gardening and picking fruit and vegetables. Furthermore, as I worked in the restoration of 3 different houses, I developed a genuine enthusiasm for building and maintenance projects, particularly those related with carpentry, painting, and electricity, and I’m always interested in learning more about this type of activity.
On the other hand, my professional duties as a legal advisor in the European Council required me to be able to understand and effectively cooperate with representatives from other countries and international institutions, which provide much experience in the best way to deal with people with diverse backgrounds.
On a personal level, I consider myself a very adaptable person, thus I can easily feel comfortable in very different environments and help to ensure positive interactions. I always like to help the best I can and make sure the tasks are dully concluded.
Finally, I would like to mention that I have been developing volunteering activities for the last four years, working as a mentor in an association aiming to foster social and professional inclusion. This experience allowed me to feel satisfied for playing a role in the achievement of wider goals.

What else ...

I fell very fortune for being able to take a long period to travel, know different people and face new challenges. I would like that this experience allows me to know myself better and to discover new passions. While I’m very interested in history, literature and philosophy, I’m all about developing through human connection.
