Hello, we are Helena (27) and Bence (31), couple for 8 years, we both live in Spain although Bence was born in Hungary. We consider ourselves kind, calm, empathic, we get satisfaction from helping others and sharing new experiences. For my part (H), I have always been a very curious person, which is why I decided to study Biology, allowing me to learn countless things about life. Later, I studied a specialized master's degree in microbiology, although I am also very interested in marine biology, genetics, evolution, anthropology... It is my interest in the world that makes me want to experience new cultures and see with my own eyes landscapes and ecosystems that do not exist here in Europe. Bence is a passionate software developer, and it is his adventurous spirit that motivates him to escape the monotony of the office, wanting to explore different cultures and contribute to the well-being of others through volunteering. Although he has spent his career immersed in the world of technology, he also has experience in carpentry, agriculture, and basic beekeeping, influenced by his family.
A few extra things about us:
- Helena spent a year volunteering at a dog and cat shelter. Years ago she got her scuba diving qualification (although since then she has only been able to snorkel). She participated in a science outreach project with high school students for two years. She spent two years researching bacteria and since last year she has been working as a lab technician in a pharmaceutical company.
- Bence is passionate about sports, has played handball most of his life and has also coached teenagers. Before becoming a programmer he worked in various fields, which makes him very versatile. His family has an orchard, which he helped to renovate and where he is constantly involved.
