I am currently

Description

Hello there workaway friends, I'm currently back home in Spain after having spent the last 8 years living and working in Ireland (with travelling bouts here and there, of course).
I want to explore Jordan and the middle East in the next few weeks, I am eager to learn just about anything, but I'm particularly interested in spending time in nature, teaching yoga (I'm a RYT-200 hatha yoga), and getting the chance to find a place in the tourism industry where I could help with my skills (spa - I'm a qualified massage therapist, reception and cleaning).

I have been taking Arabic lessons over the past 10 months and I intend to spend sometime in an Arab speaking country so I can continue learning.

I grew up in a farm, and nature is what I'm drawn to (the desert 🏜️ too!). And that feeling seems to increase as I get older.
I've been very lucky to travel to wonderful places around the globe, and I've seen some pretty stunning landscapes. Mother Earth never ceases to amaze me.

I've recently started a course on Ayurveda and it's opened a new whole world to me.

Curious facts about me:
- I wake up at 5 am everyday.
- I'd rather shop for kitchen gadgets than clothes.
- I'm a mountain lover. I climbed Mount Kilimanjaro and I can't even put into words what that meant to me.
- I worked in international cooperation for a couple of years, and that was the most fulfilling job i've ever had (although I've always considered myself really lucky and I've loved them all).

I'm ready to start a new adventure. So hopefully see you on the road soon!
