Description

Hi! I’m 29 years old, I am from the US and I live in Denver, CO. I am a social worker by trade and most recently worked in a local hospital. Right now, I am taking some time off from the typical work life to discover new parts of the world.

Pre-COVID I spent about two years travelling (and doing work exchanges) in Central & South America and the south of Europe. I speak fluent english and conversational spanish.

I am here with workaway because I want to learn anything and everything. I have this special opportunity to exchange my able body and able mind for unique experiences all over the world.

More details about my language interests
I am a native english speaker from the US. About 5 years ago, I traveled for about 1.5 years in South and Central America and was able to speak Spanish confidently at that time. Since I have returned to the US, I have barely used the spanish and unfortunately I dont remember much.

More details about your skills

Growing up I worked mostly in the restaurant business and through this I learned how to communicate well with customers. I have some general skills in tourism, reception, etc.

I have also worked in many settings with children such as in a school, as a nanny and in an orphanage.

I can garden, paint, do some basic construction. I can try anything that you need done. I am a quick learner and love to try new things.

I like taking walks and spending time with animals or in nature. Some of my hobbies include reading, writing, hiking, art, music, yoga, going to the beach, good conversations, stargazing!!
