Description

Tara:
I am a singer and voice teacher and my passion is connecting with people through music and helping others feel free to express themselves using their voices. I love feeling useful and finding my place in communities through work. I was born in Ecuador to and Iranian father and American mother, and a big part of my life is now exploring my cultural heritage and processing it through my music and performances. I hope my time in Latin America will help deepen my relationship to the continent where I was born!

Martin:
I am a theater and film director from Budapest Hungary. I love organizing group projects, collaborating with other people, and seeing and giving a space to other people's strengths. I love working on construction projects, working with the land, and am very open to learning from others about those things, and also cooking! I also love working with children and teenagers.

More details about your skills

Tara:
I am a professional classical singer and music teacher, and have a certificate in teaching English (which I have never done, but I am happy to try!). I am also an enthusiastic gardener and have experience working with groups of children and teenagers in making theater productions together. In addition to any kind of more simple physical or teaching volunteer work, I could help develop creative curriculums for language schools, help train beginning teachers, and give theatrical or musical workshops for participants of any age!

I am also very curious about learning about permaculture and medicinal plants, and I would like to improve my Spanish, so I am happy to assist in any activity where I can help others practice English or French, and/or speak in Spanish.

Martin:
I am a theater and film director. I could help edit films or commercials, give advice about creative direction for projects, and lead creative workshops. I am good at basic maintenance and construction, and have a lot of pleasure from fixing something that was broken. I would like to learn more about construction, permaculture, environmentally friendly building and farming practices. I am also a beginning Spanish learner, and I would like to gain confidence and knowledge speaking this beautiful language.
