My name is Valentin but people call me Valen, I'm from a small rural village called Tibi, in Spain. I have been traveling and living abroad in different countries as Estonia, Romania or Guatemala also involved in other volunteer projects.

More details about your skills
My background is centered on childhood and youngsters education and mannaging activities with families, where I have more than 5 years of experience in different countries.
Among others, I have worked in several social entities where we serve kids and families derived from social services; as an environment educator; and in different projects like a farm school, physical activities instructor, etc.
My daily work is always focused on increase and develop the students’ skills, reducing or eliminating inequalities, fostering empathy and solidarity, developing environmental awareness and a critical attitude towards life.
I try to develop these goals while making sure that the dynamics are as playful as possible.
Also, as a country boy, I like to spend time outdoors and I have knowledge about nature, agriculture, animals, etc. So, I don't mind doing manual and physical work. I am always willing to help and learn new things.

What else ...
I love outdoor activities and sports, but if that's not possible, I'm also up to play some board games or watch a movie.
I enjoy beeing sourraunded by animals of different species as I have been doing in my village and some works.
I'm also in juggling. I have a show for kids and I have been using that skills to connect with them.
I can play the guitar, that makes me feel creative; I can solve the rubik's cube, that makes me feel smart.
Sometimes a glass of wine or a coffee and a good conversation is all I need.
I don't like too much to cook but I'm a good partner for having lunch or dinner, and, of course, I'll wash the dishes haha
