Description

I'm very curious and optimistic by nature. I always try to look on the bright side, even in difficult situations, and this positive attitude enables me to adapt quickly and make the most of every experience. What motivates me deeply is the desire to contribute in a positive way and to feel useful, whether in a creative project, a practical task, or simply by sharing simple moments with others.

I love exploring new cultures and traveling to meet people from all walks of life. Discovering unique places and learning about different ways of life enriches me every step of the way. I love learning new things and sharing experiences, because I believe that every encounter and every situation has something to teach us.

In short, what makes me truly happy is to experience moments of sharing and authentic exchange, and to discover all that the world has to offer.

More details about your skills

Above all, I love discovering different types of work. That’s why I’ve spent every summer and school break gaining experience in various fields such as retail, construction, truck unloading, shelving ... My goal has always been to develop a wide range of skills across different trades.

While I enjoy learning about many professions, construction is my favorite, which led me to study civil engineering. Currently, my studies focus on concrete structures, but I also have a passion for working with wood and construction projects. For example, I built a wooden garden shed for my parents and enjoy making furniture like nightstands and bookshelves. I’m always curious to explore new materials, especially wood, even though I started with little knowledge in the field—I love learning by doing.

This 9-week journey would be a fantastic opportunity to explore new trades or deepen the skills I’ve started developing through my previous experiences.

What else ...

I love sports and have played basketball for 13 years, so I enjoy playing with friends and watching games whenever I can. I’m also a fan of other sports like football, volleyball, and running—I love both watching and trying out different sports whenever I get the chance.

I enjoy discovering new types of music and exploring different genres. While I rarely play video games, I’ve always wanted to learn the piano but haven’t taken the plunge yet.

I’m not someone who likes to sit around doing nothing—I love staying active and engaged. I also enjoy playing board games, and my favorite is Skyjo.
