Description

Hola! Esta caja me está preguntando qué me motiva y qué me trae felicidad: Me motiva aprender muuuchasss cosas, intelectuales y manuales. Me motiva el planeta, la naturaleza, la vida, la gente y su cultura. La selva, el mar, la montaña y el cielo. Me hace feliz conversar, bailar, ver pasar la vida, caminar, ayudar... tantas cosas. Acabo de egresar de la universidad en Bogotá como Bióloga, y en este momento de mi vida mi mayor interés está en internarme en la naturaleza y poder entender, de hecho, todas las cosas que me mostraron en un salón de clase ocurriendo en tiempo real.

Hello! So this box is asking me what does make me happy and what brings me joy: I feel motivated to learn a lot of things, including intellectual and manual work. I feel motivated about this planet earth, about nature, about life, people and it's cultures. The jungle, the sea, the mountains and the sky. Things that bring joy to my life include having conversations, dancing, walking, helping, among so many things! I just finished my career as a Biologist in Bogotá, Colombia and in this moment of my life my biggest interest is placed on going into the nature and actually see and understand all those things my teachers were talking about in the concrete jungle, but happening there, in real time, right in front of my eyes.

More details about your skills

Durante mi carrera de biología he aprendido mucho sobre los ciclos de la naturaleza, sobre las plantas y los animales, agricultura, y cosas afines. Sin embargo en mi experiencia práctica, he hecho algunos voluntariados cortos en los que he trabajado en la siembra de plantas y tengo algo de experiencia en la siembra de corales en granjas marinas. Quisiera adquirir mayores conocimientos en agricultura, construcción y permacultura.
Tengo gran pasión por la sostenibilidad y me he dedicado a estudiar sobre este tema, por lo tanto podría aportar algunas días al respecto, sin embargo muy seguramente ustedes podrán complementarme mucho más a mí con su experiencia.
Mi lengua materna es el español, hablo inglés desde muy pequeña así que lo manejo a la perfección, hablo un poco de danés porque estuve un año en Dinamarca y estoy aprendiendo alemán en este momento ... algunas cosas puedo decir.
Sé cocinar bastante bien (modestia aparte) -comida vegetariana en su mayoría-.
Y bueno, soy sociable y estoy abierta a aprender todo todo! Este es mi mayor interés en este momento de la vida.

During my biology career I learned a lot about the natural and ecological cycles, about plants and animals, agriculture and topics alike. However, in my practical experience I’ve done short volunteering works where I’ve worked with planting, and some experience planting corals in marine farms. I would like to acquire more experience and learn about agriculture and ecological agriculture, construction and permaculture.
I’m passionate about sustainability and I’ve dedicated a while to learn about these topics so I could contribute with some ideas regarding this topic (you can probably give me a lot more than I could give regarding these topics, due to your experience and lifestyle).
My mother Tonge is Spanish, however I speak English since I was little so I have a teaching level of English, I speak a bit of danish because I spent one year in Denmark and I’m currently learning German so a thing or two I can say in this language.
I’m very good at cooking and I really like it, I cook vegetarian and incurring into vegan food.
And well, I’m social and I’m open to learn about everything, this is my biggest interest in this point of my life.
