Description

Hi! I'm Ane, 34 years old, originally from the Basque Country in Spain.

I’ve been a teacher for the past 10 years. I’ve mainly taught philosophy, psychology, and languages, and I absolutely love sharing ideas and learning from others.

Now I feel that it’s time to step outside the classroom and explore different ways people learn and teach around the world. I’m preparing for my first Workaway experience—a journey I’ve been dreaming about for a long time, but never quite dared to begin… until now. It feels like the right moment to go out, see new places, and learn everything I can—while hopefully offering something valuable in return.

I’ve always been drawn to rural environments and simple living. I enjoy being close to nature and would love to learn more about gardening, sustainable practices, and working with the land.

I also have a personal interest in spirituality—nothing too formal, but I really value mindfulness, quiet spaces, and the chance to explore different ways of understanding life. I’m curious about meditation and other worldviews, and I’m eager to learn more from people and communities who live in a conscious, intentional way.

In my previous school, I also supported social media and communication tasks, so I’d be happy to help with that if needed.

I enjoy meaningful conversations, simple living, and being part of a community. I’m always up for a new experience and happy to lend a hand however it’s needed!

More details about your skills

I’m a respectful, friendly, and open-minded person who enjoys connecting with others and adapting to different environments. Over the past 10 years, I’ve worked as a teacher, so I’m used to organizing activities, guiding groups, and supporting people of different ages and backgrounds—especially children and teenagers.

I feel comfortable working with kids and know how to create a calm and supportive atmosphere around them. I also have experience helping with school communication and managing social media, so I’d be happy to support in that area too if needed.

In addition to teaching, I really enjoy working with my hands. I have some experience with gardening and love learning more about growing food and taking care of plants. I also enjoy crafts—especially bookbinding and watercolor painting—so I’m always happy to share those skills or use them in creative projects.

Whether it’s helping in the garden, assisting with daily tasks, supporting a learning space, or just being part of a community—I’m happy to contribute in any way I can.
