Description

**español abajo** :)

Hello!
I'm Lisa, 23 years old, half French, half German.
After I finished my sewing studies in France, I needed to take some time for myself, to figure out what I really want in Life. So i decided to fulfill one of my dreams: travel, and discover new ways of life, meet people and exchange with them, all around the world.
In October 2023, I went on my first solo trip through Southeast Asia for 7 months. I learnt so much, about new cultures, others, and myself.
This october (2024), I'll travel to Colombia until January at least. The purpose of this travel is to attend to the Negros y Blancos carnival in Pasto, go there a bit before, and try to find locals artists to help and work on the costumes for the carnival.
So I'll mainly stay in the south, between Bogota to Pasto.
I'd like to have some volunteer experiences in between, in farms, homestays, somewhere with nature, where I would happily give a hand with anything needed :)
I'd also love to improve my spanish!!
I'm a discreet person, that adapts easily. I'm used to live simply, and I don't need much to be happy;
I like to help by making myself useful whenever I can.
Humor is an important part of my daily life, and I'm always ready to laugh and make jokes!This makes it easy to socialize and exchange, no matter the language!
I love being in the nature, go on a walk or a hike, observe and listen what surrounds me
& I love to be around animals (especially dogs!).
I'm very manual, and have a lot of patient with handiworks, like sewing, knitting, crocheting, drawing, painting, and also doing pottery! I would really love to discover and learn the local handicrafts.
Recently, I really enjoyed spending time in the garden, watering the plants, picking fruits & veggies, cutting trees, etc.. gardering work in general.




**Hola!
Soy Lisa, tengo 23 años, mitad francesa, mitad alemana.
Después de terminar mis estudios de costura en Francia, necesitaba tomarme un tiempo para mí, para descubrir lo que realmente quiero en la vida. Así que decidí cumplir uno de mis sueños: viajar y descubrir nuevas formas de vida, conocer gente e intercambiar con ella, en todo el mundo.
En octubre de 2023, hice mi primer viaje en solitario por el sudeste asiático durante 7 meses. Aprendí mucho sobre nuevas culturas, sobre los demás y sobre mí misma.
Este octubre (2024), viajaré a Colombia hasta enero al menos. El propósito de este viaje es asistir al carnaval de Negros y Blancos en Pasto, ir allí un poco antes y tratar de encontrar artistas locales que ayuden y trabajen en los disfraces para el carnaval.
Así que me quedaré principalmente en el sur, entre Bogotá y Pasto. Me gustaría tener algunas experiencias de voluntariado en el medio, en granjas, casas de familia, algún lugar con naturaleza, donde felizmente pueda ayudar con cualquier cosa que necesite :)
¡También me encantaría mejorar mi español!
Soy una persona discreta, que se adapta fácilmente. Estoy acostumbrada a vivir de manera sencilla y no necesito mucho para ser feliz;
Me gusta ayudar siendo útil siempre que puedo.
El humor es una parte importante de mi vida diaria, ¡y siempre estoy dispuesta a reír y hacer bromas! Esto hace que sea fácil socializar e intercambiar, ¡sin importar el idioma!
Me encanta estar en la naturaleza, caminar o hacer caminatas, observar y escuchar lo que me rodea
y me encanta estar rodeada de animales (¡especialmente perros!).
Soy muy manual y tengo mucha paciencia con las manualidades, como coser, tejer, hacer crochet, dibujar, pintar y también hacer cerámica. Me encantaría descubrir y aprender las artesanías locales. Últimamente, disfruté mucho pasar tiempo en el jardín, regando las plantas, recogiendo frutas y verduras, cortando árboles, etc., trabajo de jardinería en general. **

More details about your skills

Being half-French and half-German, I speak both languages fluently, and would be happy to share and teach them if needed/wanted. I also speak pretty well English (enough to understand and be understood), and Italian, which I can use for basic conversation.
With my 2 little brothers, and my experience of a few months in an elementary school in Germany, I'm used to being surrounded by children, playing with them, cooking for them or helping them with their homework.
I love to cook dishes from all over the world for my family, whether it's sophisticated meals or brunches with delicious vegan pancakes or banana bread! I'd also be very happy to learn how to cook typical dishes of the region/country I'll be in.
I'm a very manual person: I've just finished my two-year sewing-studies, and I like to knit, crochet, make pottery and paint! I'm very interested in handicrafts, and would love to discover local ones!
