    Travelling

  • Description

    Hi there! my name is Xaxa and I am from Barcelona
    I enjoy being surrounded by nature: sea, mountains, sun...I love animals, writing, meeting new people and learning about different cultures. I enjoy being around kids and enjoy teaching as well.
    One of the things I love the most are dancing (I love salsa and bachata and I have done others like hip hop, afro or bellydancing but really I like learning any style) and aerials.
    Although I can be very social I am also very independent and need time on my own to decompress and do my own things.
    I've worked in different fields. I've worked in hospitality (in hotels and also as a property manager), as an English teacher, assistant manager, yoga teacher, and some more. I am currently studying psychology (so I'll need some time for uni as well) and I have a NLP coach certificate.
    Travelling has always been my passion but what I like about the places is the people and experiences along the way, more than the places itself.
    I quit my job and I am currently traveling the world before heading to Canada for a while.
    I am looking for a place with great vibes; a home away from home. I like to imagine a world where is not all about money but about sharing happinnes and love.
