  • Description

    I recently completed two years of agriculture-based volunteer work with the Peace Corps in Senegal, West Africa, where I focused on sustainable farming practices, community gardening, and food security initiatives. During my time there, I developed hands-on skills in agroecology and learned the importance of adapting farming methods to local climates and resources.

    Now, I’m eager to continue expanding my knowledge and practical experience by working on agricultural projects in Spain, especially those focused on sustainability, permaculture, and organic farming. I am passionate about working with nature, exploring new cultures, and contributing to local communities.

    I also love art, fitness, and traveling, which keeps me curious and motivated to immerse myself in new environments. I believe that cultural exchange is a powerful tool for personal growth, and I enjoy connecting with people from diverse backgrounds while learning about traditional farming methods and modern sustainable practices.
