Description

*Disclaimer on 1-star Feedback*
To attempt make a long-story short:
The person who left the 1-star feedback is the owner of a beautiful dog sanctuary property in Guatemala. She was not onsite while I was volunteering, but her onsite manager was. I was in good standing with her onsite manager for my time spent on the property. In such good standing, I extended my stay on multiple occasions. Soon after I left the property, on good standings with my direct manager there, her and the owner of the property had a nasty falling out. The workaway profile switched hands back to the owner from the onsite manager, whom I worked directly with. Then the owner of the property, whom I never met and never saw my work ethic, left the review. She always disliked the volunteer program as a whole and did have a number of volunteer not preform up to expectation. I was not one of them, and, in fact, I picked up their slack with a smile. Disappointing, but I am even more motivated to do a great job and have a smile on my face when working to counter balance my incorrect 1-star review.

Also, needless to say, I have plenty other references, if necessary, to speak highly of my work ethic.

Brief resume:

200HR yoga teacher training certified (Tzununa, Lake Atitlan, Guatemala, April 2025)
Worked in a gym for 1 year leading functional strength & HIIT classes and keeping the equipment and facility clean and tidy (Suburbs of Chicago, 2024-2025)
Worked in corporate America for 9 years in industrial pollution science (Indiana & Suburbs of Chicago, 2017-2025)

Geologist by education with a Spanish minor. My Spanish is intermediate and I intend to improve during my travels.

More about my interests:
Preparing and eating healthy meals (omnivore), wellness, yoga, functional strength training, learning and growing in these areas always!
Nature, being close to the wind, rain, bugs, birds, water, soil, and sun are very important for my wellbeing. I love to learn specifics about plants and insects as well (:

I seek to be a helpful part of a team that can involve yoga, movement, permaculture, plant knowledge, communing with nature, animals and my fellow humans, child care, cooking, construction & animal care.

Let's connect and make some unforgettable amazing experiences.

Warmly,

Autres infos...

My hobbies/interests include: anything active and/or outdoors like hiking, biking, yoga, meditation, reading, strength training, listening to music, watching documentaries, and passing time with good company.

I also love learning different ways to heal yourself with in and would love to further gain some real life experience here as most of my education so far has been from reading, contemplating, doing yoga and meditation on my own and/or at a Tibetan Buddhist meditation center or various yoga studios over the years.
