Description
Hola! I am Sunay from Turkey and I will be in Chile again soon for three months. It is so exciting to be back :) !
I am a versatile person. I have many interests that I sometimes get lost in. Bouldering/Climbing, yoga, mountain hiking, gardening, bird watching, performing arts, wildlife art are some of the things that I like to do.
I am very firendly, sharing and cooperative person and at the same time I respect my own personal space too. I highly value learning new skills, growing emotionally and being transformed. I think traveling and building meaningful relationships with people is a unique way to do that. One of the other reasons of my travel is language exchange. Although it was challenging to do it in Chile I liked it a lot and love challenges anyway. :)) This time it would be great the I explore more Chile’s wildlife, trails and rock climbing areas.
I have always preferred to be in nature for living, job, hobbies, healing etc. in my life. Although my education is in nature conservation at the academy, I am not working in that field professionally at the moment. I left my PhD education because of many reasons. I prefered to be there for the nature in more comprehensive way. I love to be in countryside and dream about growing a food forest using regenarative methods. That's why seeing different properties such as permaculture gardens, farms, regenerative urban gardens, eco-hostels etc. makes me excited. Learning about different designs and gardening practices motivates me and helps my dreams for the future grow .

Quelles sont vos compétences ?
During my academic journey I worked as a researcher in the nature conservation and research projects. (biodiversity, ecology, conservation biology) I was a field biologist and I think my endurance for working in field conditions is quite high. Plus I am comfortable with writing research projects and articles.
After leaving the academy I become a content writer in two different company (Biology Specialist and Product content and blog writer a van company).
I am quick learner and very handy for helping construction works. Me and my boyfriend built a motocaravan 3 years ago.
As I worked remotely in these jobs I also worked as a farmer and biologist in an ecological farm (where people trying to adapt syntropic farming in to mediterranean climate) in the Mediterranean region in Turkey. I can use basic farming tools, plant and harvest, basic pruning. I am also interested in the utilisation of the harvested products in the kitchen (İf you are open to experimenting)
Currently I have been working seasonally in movement and circus art retreat center in a village in Turkey. Mostly being responsible in the kitchen, helping out for workshop organization and for volunteer coordination etc. Besides all these, I have been teaching as a yoga instructor since 2018.

Autres infos...
I was in Chile in last autmn for three months. I have visited Santiago, Maria Pinto, Valparaiso, Banos Morales and Corneche. I am not looking for a very short-term volunteering experience, I would prefer staying at least 3 weeks so that I can see and process enough and make connections, even if they are few .
