Description
Heyyyy, I’m Rafa, and I'm from Brazil :)

I’ve always been curious to know more about the world and its different cultures and I think Workaway is a wonderful way to connect to people, learn new things and help people in different projects and open my mind even more.

As for my personality, I’m easy going and can adapt to almost anything. And even though I’m very social and outgoing I love to have time to myself and do not mind spending time on my own.

I had my first solo experience when I was 16 when I did an exchange program in Iowa, USA for one year. After that I got back to Brazil and studied to get into Law School.

When I was still in Law School I went to a program from Colorado State University called Semester at Sea, where I lived on a ship for four months, had classes on the ship and went to countries in Asia and in Africa. I also had different experiences such as solo backpacking, volunteering in an Elephant Sanctuary and going to a monastery in Thailand.

I finished Law School but I’m currently working as a writer, creating content for websites :)

In my free time I love to meditate (I follow a very different method that started in Korea), scuba dive, kitesurf, ski, hike, learn new languages, eat good food, drink a beer and wine with friends and family and discover new things I had no idea I loved :)

That was the best experiences I had in Costa Rica! I spent almost 3 weeks in April here and it was incredible. Nichole had a great communication before I arrived and even helped me with the plane tickets. Unfortunately we just met on my last day there but she was so generous with all the volunteers. We get a very good accommodation, great food (we… read more

I feel so lucky to have this experience in the hacienda. The property is beautiful and it’s an amazing place to meet people from all over the world and live in a community. The people that attracts is so different from each other (all ages, genders, nationalities…) which I think it makes a very rich experience.

The dogs are amazing and working… read more

Rafaela is one of the most amazing, warm-hearted, thoughtful, and generous people we have met through Workaway: always ready to help, always there when needed, always sympathetic and kind in difficult moments.

I feel extremely lucky to have this experience. Sam, Trina and Alix are one of the most generous and interesting people I met. I first arrived at their place in Perugia and stayed there for a couple of days. In this time I could experience life in the city and work with Trina, a very talented artist and above all, an amazing human being that I was… read more
