Description

Hi. We're Taja and Zala, a medical and dental medicine students from Slovenia, but first and foremost two friends, who love to explore and take on new adventures. We're pasionate about traveling around the world, meeting new people and learning about different cultures and lifestyles but also want to use our skills to help others and do some good.
We've been going to the same spot in the summer our whole lives, where we camp without electricity, so we're used to cold (or no) showers, cooking on gas or fire and no screens. We're both athletic, love music, good food and like working with kids (we also both have some experience with that).
We are currently students, Zala studying mecidine in Serbia and Taja dental medicine in Slovenia. We would love to educate people on various medical topics and help with the skills we learnt so far.

More details about my language interests
As we are both fluent in English, we could help others learn it. We also can share our knowledge of German and French and even Slovene, our mother tongue, which is spoken by only 2 million people. We are eager to also learn new words of the local language where we would work and travel and at least be able to say basic words like hi, thank you, please, bye, count...
