Travel information

I am currently

Description

My name is Zunaira, and I work as a CTO with an international technology company. I have international experience working with people and organizations from different parts of the world, with a background in software engineering, Unity, VR/AR, education technology, research and innovation.

I’m joining Workaway because I want to experience a place through real human connections and cultural exchange, rather than simply travelling as a tourist. I’d love to learn about local life, traditions, food, family life and everyday experiences while also sharing my own culture and experiences.

I’m a peaceful, respectful and easy-going person and I really value kindness, meaningful conversations and learning from people with different backgrounds.

I’d be happy to contribute through teaching, mentoring, technology, educational activities, workshops or practical help, depending on what is useful for the host. I especially enjoy helping young people learn and explore new ideas.

Outside of technology, I enjoy travelling, nature, gardening, cooking, creativity, historical places and discovering local traditions.

For me, Workaway is about giving as much as receiving — learning from each other, helping where I can, and hopefully making genuine friendships and connections along the way. 🌍🤝

I’m especially interested in educational and cultural exchanges and would love to meet people who share that spirit.
