Description

I am a teacher and researcher, originally from Colombia and currently living in the Netherlands.
I have hosted workers in Workaway a few times, and this will be my first experience as a volunteer worker. I have done a lot of pet / house sitting in the last 7 years. I have three grown up kids and now they studying at the University, and working in the US. I like to do swimming and scuba diving. I also like to do trekking and hiking in the mountains. I love the sea and I get crazy for a nice sunset in the mountains, or a long walk along the beach.
I am looking for a great adventure while I enjoy helping you with many activities. I love to share and socialize with people. I love to meet people from many nationalities in the world.

More details about your skills

I am software engineer and teacher in technology subjects. I have lived in the US for more than 7 years and in the Netherlands for about 10 years. I am currently working as a teacher/researcher at Saxion University of Applied Sciences, in the Netherlands. I can teach computer programming and any job related to computer sciences. I am also a mother, I have plenty of experience playing and taking care of kids.
I speak Spanish and English. I will be working part-time in my research online in my computer, so I need access to a stable Internet connection.
I can help in many ways. From taking care of your kids, taking care of your old relatives, teaching, sporting, doing hiking or tourism activities, and providing some help in the house like cleaning or cooking. I had been a pet sitter as a host and guest for many years, I enjoy pet company very much.
