Description

Hi everyone!

I'm 24 years old, and this is my first experience with Workaway. I majored in Science of communication in Mexico and I'm very into media and photography, love to create videos and photograph projects of communities, animals, or concerts. I've worked in summer camps in the United States and Canada as a counselor and media coordinator. Thanks to these great experiences I had the opportunity to work with children which is something I enjoy, not only in summer camps but in my hometown as well.

What can I say about me? I'm a chill but active person, so I can spend hours reading or working on a project at home and then go for a swim or play a match of basketball in the afternoon with friends. I enjoy visiting museums, traveling and exploring different places, I haven't done it as much as I'd like to, butttt this is why I'm trying out the platform.

Years ago I visited Spain and now I'm returning to study a Master's degree in December. My classes start in January so I'd love to get to know the city and its surroundings while also experiencing something different as a volunteer.

¡Hola!

Tengo 24 años y esta es mi primera experiencia con Workaway. Me especialicé en Ciencias de la comunicación en México y me gustan mucho los medios y la fotografía, me encanta crear videos y proyectos fotográficos de comunidades, animales o conciertos. He trabajado en campamentos de verano en Estados Unidos y Canadá como consejera y coordinadora de medios. Gracias a estas experiencias tuve la oportunidad de trabajar con niños, algo que disfruto, no sólo en los campamentos de verano sino también en mi ciudad natal.

¿Qué puedo decir de mí? Soy una persona tranquila pero activa, por lo que puedo pasar horas leyendo o trabajando en un proyecto en casa y luego ir a nadar o jugar un partido de baloncesto por la tarde con amigos. Disfruto visitar museos, viajar y explorar diferentes lugares, no lo he hecho tanto como me gustaría, pero es por eso que estoy probando la plataforma.

Hace años visité España y ahora vuelvo a estudiar un máster en diciembre. Mis clases comienzan en enero así que me encantaría conocer la ciudad y sus alrededores mientras tengo una nueva experiencia como voluntaria.

More details about my language interests
I learned English from a very young age and I've been teaching for two years on online platforms, mainly to kids and teenagers. In general I like learning languages so I also speak a bit of French, the very basics I would have to admit but it would be great having more practice with someone and of course if there's another language you could teach me I'd be thrilled to learn.
