Description

Hi there! I was born and raised in Amsterdam but I have always been enjoying nature. Currently I have a gap year and I am looking forward to spending part of it in Spain. I like to put in hard work when it's something I enjoy doing. I am very good with animals and love working with them. I speak basic Spanish, C2 English and native Dutch. I enjoy drawing, bouldering, kickboxing and surfing. Every now and then I pick up a new hobby that will last up to a few months like drumming, lockpicking, running, learning to play on the keyboard or mixology (making fancy cocktails). I think I can say as well that I am quite handy. I help my dad a lot painting or installing a new power outlet or soldering. And I really enjoy fixing things.I am rather creative and I care for the planet. I am quite social and always up for new experiences. I want to come to Spain to have new experiences different from the ones I am used to.
Furthermore, I have not decided upon whether I would like to study Industrial Design or Psychobiology.

More details about my language interests
I would love to teach English. I have some experience teaching kids Dutch. I really enjoyed doing this, and in each lesson I tried to introduce something fresh and engaging to keep the kids excited about learning.
