  • Description

    Hello dear future host! We are a married Christian couple. Sheila is from Mexico and Ivan is from Chile.

    We are both passionate about exploring different cultures and, of course, traveling. We met while traveling in Italy.

    Sheila is a elementary school teacher in the Mexican education system. Her experience has been with children aged 7-13, and she is currently pursuing a doctorate in educational psychology. She teaches Spanish, math, and science (natural and social). While in college, she began volunteering with Workaway in Canada, the Netherlands, and Germany.

    Ivan is a risk prevention engineer. He worked in construction in Chile and currently works in Mexico as a workplace safety engineer in a factory.

    We have decided to take a break from our jobs for a while so we can continue exploring and learning about the world before our family grows. We have briefly described our occupations, but we are willing to learn and put into practice any new skills that may be required or arise along the way.

    I can do very versatile activities, and I always look for them to be well done:
    Agriculture: I do not mind getting dirty at the end of the day,
