Description
Hello,
I am Portuguese living right on the Portuguese west coast. I have decided to join workaway in order to experience living in the UK or ireland (unknown countries for me) with locals and at the same time improve my English. I am looking for a host in the countryside because I have always wanted to interact with farm animals and take care of them and to learn how to maintain a garden.
My plans for the future are to move to the UK to improve professionally as a pharmacist and to discover that lovely country. My free time is spent hiking, reading, surfing occasionally, indoor cycling, doing crochet (in the local knitting club on Tuesdays), and latin dancing (on Wednesdays more recently). In the winter season, I love skiing and snowboarding.
More details about me: I really enjoy helping other people and learning from them and I eat “crepes” every day.Interests
