Description

For me travelling is a way of life. More than anything, I love Nature, and I believe it to be the best teacher. And so, in my adventures I always try to include Nature, connect to it, understand it better and, through that, gain a better understanding of myself. I’m minimalistic, interested in yoga, philosophy, and spirituality – always eager to improve myself as a human being. Also I'm a Wim Hof method's beginner!:)

Although being a rather introverted person, I like spending time with people and creating meaningful relationships. I’m a careful listener and, after some time, even a good story-teller (hopefully!:)) Believing that another person can be a most wonderful treasure in the world, I enjoy meeting people of all ages and cultures.

My biggest passion in life is literature – both poetry and prose. I’d love to know as many languages as possible to be able to read more books in their original versions!

In my travels I follow a simple quote taken from my favourite author, Graham Greene: “It’s all experience” - be it good or bad, developing new skills, getting knowledge, learning about other people, other cultures, emotions, passions are, for me, the most wonderful and precious things in life.

More details about your skills

I have completed a 200 hours YTTC in Tiruvannamalai, South India.

I have an experience of working as a receptionist in a hostel in the UK.

During the Summer 2023 I had a privilege of volunteering in a yoga/sustainability centre where I frequently prepared plant-based meals for a group of 20 people. There I also learnt some basics of gardening, construction, and maintenance.

I studied English Philology for 2 years (currently I'm taking a one year break to travel). I finished an English Teaching Methodology course during my Erasmus in Seville, so I can teach English at all levels.

Age

23

What else ...

Since I study philology I'm obviously interested in languages both from the practical and teoretical point.
I love hiking, my best experience so far is 1-month trip to Spanish Pyrenees - I learnt my minimalism there! And I also fell in love with sleeping in the tent!
Sometimes I enjoy staying for a while in fantasy worlds - through literature (Master Tolkien, especially), games (Witcher), RPG (I'm a beginner of D&D), or my own writing (mostly poems & some short stories).
