Description
Hello everyone!
I’m Yassi, I grew up in Montreal, Canada. After several years of exploring, working and volunteering across Latin America, Asia, and Europe, I’m now excited to embark on a new volunteering opportunities around the world and meet great people to connect with.
I’m a happy, self‑reliant person who thrives on adventure, meaningful work, deep connections with humans and nature, and personal growth. I value community and cultural exchange, and my happiest moments come from contributing to projects that make a positive impact on the community while learning from the people around me.
My days often include reading and practicing meditation to stay grounded.
Professionally, I have a diverse skill set:
Teaching & Language Exchange: I taught English in China, Vietnam, and the Czech Republic, and I love working with language learners and children in general.
Hands‑On Work: I’m comfortable with tools and enjoy tasks like gardening, basic maintenance, and caring for plants and animals.
Creativity & Outdoors: I’m a professional drone videographer (see my YouTube channel FlyFilmsbyYassi to see some of the work I've done).
I have played Waterpolo for 10 years and have done my first rescue course in Canada, so I can teach swimming or CPR techniques, which can save lives, especially around the water.
I love hiking and a beautiful view 😍
I am also a profesional host on Airbnb, managing 3 luxury properties in Mexico, making sure the property is always in the best condition possible and that the guests have the best experience. I've learned a lot about hospitality doing this for the last 2 years with the help of my team.
Check out the units I manage under these links:

Very proud to say we have over 120 five-star reviews.
One my values in life is to always leave a space the same or better after I left, whether it be a property or in nature.
I’m eager to contribute to your project in any way I can—whether it’s helping with day‑to‑day tasks, sharing my knowledge, or learning new skills. Above all, I’m excited to learn from our shared experiences and immerse myself fully in the community.

I love thinking about the time when I was with you guys. How Juan would always be smiling or kitesurfing or building something. How Ana would stay around me when I made guacamole because she knew I had skills haha. How we would go to all the houses to find the awesome kids who would come swimming with me. When I feel stressed… read more
He is very friendly to everyone and I recommend him for future volunteering opportunities.
