    I am currently

    At home

    Activities i am interested in:

    I'm keen on education and I enjoy dealing with people, but I'm open up to consider any kind of project. I learn quickly about almost anything =)

  • Description

    I love feeling connected to people, being in nature (rather mountains than sea... I love hiking!), being useful to others... and above all, teaching! I truly believe education is one of the most important ways of making world a better place.

    I also enjoy eating tasty dishes... I'm not picky! Neither vegetarian, although I believe eating less meat is a better option for our health, necessary for the planet and fairer with the rest of humanity.

    I have travel experiences in hostels and through Couchsurfing, but in summer 2022 I joined this kind of website and started travelling-volunteering this way in Japan. I had great experiences and I'm looking forward to meeting new people and keep on exploring and learning =)

  • More details about your skills

    I used to work as a an emergency physician in Spain until summer 2021, but few years ago I also enrolled online university again to become an elementary school teacher. Then I moved to Japan, where I worked teaching Spanish, as a medical interpreter and as a kitchen assistant. In winter 2022 I returned to Spain to continue my studies.

    To be honest, cooking is not my greatest ability, but I'm open and quick to learn about anything.
    Languages (I'm fluent in Spanish, English and Japanese, even though I don't speak them perfectly) are probably one of my most useful skill as a volunteer.

    I also have experience teaching kids in private lessons, as a volunteer in NPOs. And as I mentioned before, I'm really keen to education, thus being useful and getting experience in anything related to that may be very interesting for me as well!

    All in all, I love dealing with people in any ways.

    35

  • What else ...

    Summing up, right now I am part-time teleworking for a Japanese company as an interpreter and studying some subjects for the elementary school teaching degree.

    I'm looking forward to explore Latin America starting in fall 2023, beginning with Mexico. I'm searching for some volunteering project, if possible related to educational field although I'm totally open to consider any other kind of projects... I believe in lifelong learning, and you never know what you can find around the corner :D
