My next destination:
United Kingdom - from Oct 2024 until Mar 2025 View allDescription
I'm a calm, respectful and relaxed person! I like traveling, discovering new cultures and learning foreign languages. Furthermore, I'm aware of the importance of preserving nature and all forms of life on planet Earth. Sustainability always!
I like pets because they are loving and cute. They deserve all the care, protection and admiration. Cats and dogs are wonderful!
As a workawayer, I have a lot of experience in Pet Sitting and House Sitting when hosts travel or need someone to keep company, feed and walk their beautiful pets.
Furthermore, I have experience in helping people with mobility difficulties, recovering their health or keeping company with people in third age. I'm a good listener and I like to learn from the lessons that other people have learned throughout their lives.
Regarding volunteer work, my experiences were at Cancer Research UK (Cambridge), workaways in France, Germany, Canada, Finland, Spain, Ireland and Scotland. All volunteering experiences have been rewarding, an opportunity to improve my social skills, meet new families, make new friends, broaden my view of the world, learn languages and cultures from different countries.
I have a master's degree in Development and Environment, as well as a degree in Electrical Engineering. Also, specialist in Industrial Property. Therefore, I work online as an Industrial Property consultant (registering brands and protecting inventions such as patents, software (apps) and industrial designs). Additionally, I was a university professor and taught operational research, intellectual property, calculus I, finance, statistics and production management in Brazil.
I like all types of food, whether vegetarian or not. I don't smoke! I don't have allergies, just high blood pressure that I control with medication.
My hobbies are cooking, learning foreign languages and learning about wellness (massage, cupping and auriculotherapy).
To all the families who opened their doors to me, I would like you to know that you are part of the story of my life and I will always remember you all! Gratitude!
If you need my help, don't hesitate to write to me!
