Description

Hi there. I’m currently traveling the world riding my motorcycle. From Spain to Mongolia and (almost) everything in between. Or at least that’s the plan!

I'm a journalist, a Spanish teacher and also a wine maker. Although great part of my career is all about comunication, working with my hands is one of my passions.

I consider myself as an adventurous person which necessarily means being also positive and open minded.

I'm looking forward to know new people and cultures, to share whatever it's needed and to learn any new skills I can.

More details about your skills

I studied journalism and I’ve been one for almost ten years; magazines, radio, television, websites…communication is one of my more developed tools. This career has also gifted me with skills in video (both filming and editing) and social media/internet. In fact, I’m quite handy with any computer related stuff.

Last year I devised a change of path and I studied to be Spanish teacher, since the language of Cervantes was my instrument of work, so I can teach both Spanish and English.

These last years I supplemented my job as a journalist making wine. I’m from one of the most wine productive regions of the world and the business runs deep in my family.


Related to projects in Workaway, I was a volunteer for one year on a project in the Bolivian rainforest in which I carried out a multitude of tasks, including: care of a large plantation of cucumbers, eggplants, passion fruit and other plants, construction with cement and brick, work with wood, general maintenance, etc...

The time in the project allowed me to obtain ease in the handling of all kinds of tools, both mechanical and simple, and in the handling of 4x4 vehicles on rural roads. On the other hand, the continuous stay with volunteers from all over the world has allowed me to develop my organization at the group level; kitchen for large groups, distribution of tasks, etc.
