Description

Hi, I'm Alyssa. A long-term traveler who's been to 13 countries so far, and has lived in 4 of them. My whole life I've been called a happy, positive, ray of sunshine. ☀️

I'm passionate about learning new languages, sustainability, helping kids/animals, and creating a deep sense of community wherever I go.

I really want to experience the culture of Central and South America, practice my Spanish, and help with a cause that I care about while having fun along the way.

Traveling, hiking, diving, surfing, music, art, yoga, and soaking up the sun are some of my favorite things!

I've done many work exchanges/volunteer programs around the world. I taught English to kids in Mexico, was an Au Pair and lived with host families in Italy and Australia, and most recently I volunteered on a farm in Thailand for one week. I also have experience in web design, copywriting, marketing, social media, photography, and creating video content.

Meeting locals and living with them truly inspires me and I want to make this earth a better place by helping and growing where I can :)
