Descripción

Hey all! My name is Andre and I'm really excited to be on Workaway. I currently live in Mexico (Playa del Carmen) teaching English off and on for about about two years. Having learned Spanish, I truly know how difficult it can be to speak a language. I am patient and motivating in exchanges for that reason. In addition to a passion for learning languages, I am a big reader and movie watcher (from all eras). At the moment, I'm teaching myself how to shoot and edit video on adobe premiere. I can definitely help in that area if needed. I am also interested in herbs, fruits and gardening albeit having a small amount of experience in the latter. I hope to learn through Workaway and will help out with a keen interest and gusto. Personality-wise, I am quite laid-back and positive and like to keep a social/personal balance. I can socialize as much or as little as the host wants. Also I'm a big basketball player. I challenge anyone to a 3-point shooting contest ;)

Hello my name is Paola. I come from Hidalgo, Mexico just above Mexico City. At the moment, I live in Playa del Carmen on the Yucatan Penninsula. I love to draw, paint, and participate in all things creative. I love nature and animals but I also love to go into the city. I am good with kids. I feel still connected to that part of me and I love to read kids books and play fun and silly games. I like to cook as well (Lots of quinoa and veggies/fruit). I am learning adobe illustrator at the moment as well and can help out with graphic design. Thanks for reading! :)

I love to learn languages. Even if I'm not focusing on learning a particular language, I like to pick up phrases and vocabulary and understand the grammar a bit more. So all language exchanges welcome. I can help learners of English and Spanish. I lived in Mexico for three years thus Mexican Spanish is what I am most familiar with. I'm working on French consistently and so I might even be able to help there as well :)

Algo más...

Chess, Poker, Tennis, Frisbee are additional hobbies I greatly enjoy. I used to want to take poker more seriously but I realized I wasn't cut out for the grind.

Movies have been a big part of my life for 10 years. A few favorites are Jules and Jim, Nashville and La Strada to just name a very very few.

Currently I'm interested in all things natural health especially with regards to exploring a diet that leans a little more on fruit. So far, it has been great for me. I am getting more interested in herbs as well so any knowledge there would be greatly welcome.
