Description
I’m a Brazilian and I live in Rio de Janeiro. I like doing several outdoor activities, like trekking, going to the beach and waterfall, riding a bike, roller skating. I love dance, travelling and new culture.
I'm Biologist and I love animals, especially dogs. My first WorkExchange was in 2022, in the "Casa Viva Dog Shelter", in Huaraz, Peru. I spent 12 days taking care 60 dogs, and I loved it!
I work in the Ministry of Health in Brazil, and I only do workExchange during my vacations.
I've already worked with many different jobs like, shoes store, restaurant, coffee shops and receptions. After my graduation, I worked in a Zoo and a NGO (Right Whale Protection) with whale watching, seabirds monitoring and environmental education, sometimes I took care of penguins. I've also worked in a farm with ecological tourism and beekeeping.
I'm a easygoing person and adaptable. Nowadays I live in a big city, but I've lived on a farm and on a boat! I've spent 6 month living on a sailboat, travelling along the coast of Brazil. It was the craziest experience of my life!
I don’t smoke, and do not have food restrictions (but I don't like fish!) I enjoy having wine and caipirinha (a Brazilian's drink!) and I don’t like drink beer.
Doing WorkExchange for me is the best way to be a part of the local comunity in other country and a oportunity to improve my English!.
