    I### I AM CURRENTLY IN BELGIUM BUT OPEN TO EUROPE IN GENERAL ###
    Hi! I’m Paula and im ready to go anywhere in Europe.
    Ngos, communities and human rights are of importance to me in general, as is social justice. Being out of my comfort zone is definately necesscary!!

    I have a background in healthcare and hospitality, including many years as a nurse and more recent experience working in Mallorca in a guest focused retreat environment.
    I enjoy working with people and have experience in customer service, guest relations, personal Manager Services.

    Also I have worked frequently with children and elderly people throughout my life.

    ### Currently I am in Belgium in a holistic retreat center. I am here 6 weeks now. ###

    Human rights and social justice are important to me and generally I adopt a live and let live attitude I feel in a non judgemental way ! Try to do better, be better. Each day brings a new opportunity to try to do good.
    I’m a native English speaker, currently learning Spanish, and I adapt well to new environments and teams once I settle in and am comfortable and feel like a good fit for the team !

    People describe me as friendly, reliable, trustworthy, caring and positive, I am a non drinker and non smoker.

    I am looking to get more involved in charities and/ or communities that are human rights based or at least focused towards activism and peace even on a general level. Places that are empowering and uplifting ✨️
    I look forward to hearing from you and being of service somehow.
