Description
Hi :) We are two lifelong friends: Blanca (20 years old) and Gisela (20 years old). Our interests are the result of our very different personalities with which we achieve a beautiful connection. We complement each other.
Activities that transmit calm and well-being are an essential part of what we like: walking through the mountain or a beautiful beach, sunsets, reading or writing (Gisela), painting or drawing (Blanca), music, etc. This activity allows us to feel connected with ourselves and what surrounds us (we appreciate the connection with nature and love animals).
However, we are also active people. We like to do routes through the mountains, go to concerts, surf, etc. With us, you can enjoy endless conversations with sincere and assured laughter!
We are from Girona, in Catalonia, Spain (near Barcelona). We are currently studying. Blanca studies Architecture in Barcelona (UPC); I, Gisela, study Medicine in Girona (UdG).
We have experience working in the field since we have been in a work camp for three years during summer, doing all kinds of work, from restoration, gardening, throwing walls, painting walls and fences, etc. Blanca has experience teaching English and babysitting in Ireland. I combine my studies by teaching and helping to do homework for three children (aged 9, 12, and 13). I have also been a babysitter during the summer. We have patience with the children and love to spend time with them! We also like animals a lot. I have a cat and a lot of experience in taking care of it. In addition, I also have experience volunteering. I have been a volunteer since 2019 at Young Caritas. I have worked with children, elderly people, and people in situations of homelessness. Social justice has always interested me.
This year we have decided that it is a good time to do a Workaway, we want to see other places, cultures, meals, etc. In addition, as you have been able to see, we like to be in contact with nature, animals, and people, which is why we believe that it could be a compelling experience. We are also very active people who learn fast. We strongly believe that we can adapt to your needs and make this a unique and unparalleled experience.
