Description

Hi workawayers community!!
I'm Montse. I'm a teacher of English and German at University and in the evenings I am a dance and Pilates instructor at a local ballet school. I live in Lleida , Catalonia (Spain). It's difficult to describe oneself, isn't it? I am a woman who is always with mind and eyes wide open, eager to learn from others, from places, from the outside world. I am very active, fit and sporty.
My thing is dancing; I have been dancing my whole life: from classical ballet to contemporary dance (which I still practice). I have done courses in any kind of dance: flamenco, ballroom, African, salsa...
I practise meditation as well.
I love travelling, languages and meeting new people, sharing ways of life and keeping "tolerance" as my mind motto. I speak English, Spanish and German. But I grasp some French and Italian, too.
I have helped via workaway with teaching, gardening, cleaning,farming, cooking, fitness, tourism and I can face any kind of task when given directions :)
So far I have workawayed in Morocco, Germany , Cyprus and Kenya having had great experiences.
I have also volunteered in Canada and UK but through a language learning website as a group leader for students.

We had 10 great days with Montse, she is cheerful, very inteligent, hard working and a very good teacher.
Thank you Montse for being with us and your daily lessons have been giving my Spanish a big boost and you motivated me to keep learning.
You are always welcome in our house.

I can highly recommend Montse. She is highly motivated, efficient, energetic, friendly and is omeone who is easygoing - and easy to get along with. You feel you have known for a long time.

Montse stayed with me for 5 days over the new year and helped me declutter my house and prepare a lot of stuff to give to friends or charity shops or simply … read more

I spent one week at Mary's. She is a very interesting and kind woman, full of personal life experiences and a keen learner of Spanish. I helped her with the language and around the house. She also cooked for me and made sure I felt comfortable, which I entirely did. I got to know some of her friends as she is sociable, too. We got on really well!

I have just returned from a really emotionally touching experience in Ghiturai helping at the Church. It is highly rewarding to see how these refugees from Congo get involved in their process of learning a new language that can for sure open doors to a future in Nairobi. Most have lived terrible experiences during the war in their country and many … read more

Hosting Montse was such a pleasure it felt like having an old friend come to stay. She has a lovely, cheerful disposition and a great sense of humour. She couldn’t stay long as she is a teacher and came during her term break but she was most helpful with everything from cleaning and organizing (she loves cleaning – go figure!) to helping with … read more

I have just finished my great ten days (which have flown by) workaway at Annelie and Edwin's in the beautiful island of Cyprus. To start with, I cannot help saying that I have never seen a couple who shows such care and love for each other as this one. Sorry to sound cheesy but at moments I thought :"This is what I want for me too!!!".

This was my first workaway experience and it turned out to be one of the best decisions I have taken in a crucial moment of my life.

My experience with Montse was the easiest one.,maybe because we are both teachers of English.So,as soon as we met,we behave as if we have known each other for a long time.Hence,during her stay at my place,she took the initiative to fullfill her tasks perfectly well without being told what to do.
