Description
Hi! I'm Eduardo, a curious and enthusiastic PhD student in Biology currently living in Uppsala, Sweden. My academic journey has taken me across Europe, from Portugal to Italy, to Sweden, studying microbiology, applied biotechnology, and sustainability. I’m passionate about science, but equally about people, cultures, and meaningful experiences.

Outside the lab, I’ve been a tutor and a basketball coach for children, and a language learner (I speak Portuguese, English, French, Spanish, and some Swedish!). I love connecting with others, sharing knowledge, and getting hands-on with new challenges. Whether it's helping out with daily tasks, teaching, or working in a garden or kitchen, I’m always happy to contribute and learn.

I’m tidy, responsible, and respectful of other people’s spaces and ways of living. I enjoy reading, traveling, watching movies, and spending time outdoors. I’d love to be part of your project, lend a hand, and share stories over a meal.

Looking forward to meeting you!

Quelles sont vos compétences ?
Over the years, I’ve developed a strong set of skills through academic research, teamwork, and hands-on experiences. I’m comfortable with all kinds of detailed tasks, and experienced in tutoring, coaching kids, and working in international, collaborative environments.

I’m organized, reliable, and a good communicator, someone who enjoys both working independently and contributing to a team. I bring a problem-solving mindset, a calm attitude, and a willingness to help wherever needed. I can help in pretty much anything you need help with, as I'm a hard worker and love to learn new skills: whether it’s cooking traditional dishes, helping with eco-building, caring for animals, or improving my DIY or gardening skills.

Basketball is a big part of my life, even though I'm very passionate about sports in general. I'm a very active person, philosophical and love to share experiences and have long talks about nearly anything. I'm a very easy going person and I would love to contribute in as many ways as I can during my travels.

Laissé par le workawayer () pour l'hôte (Surfing, sand-boarding and ...)

I have had an amazing experience in Salaverry! :D The host (Shegu) is an amazing and inspiring guy who took on the challenge to found an NGO at a very young age to help the people of his town, Salaverry, which, to me, is impressive. He asks you for a contribution of 5$/day, but you also get breakfast on the house, and the chance to do both… read more sandboarding and surf with the organization's materials, which sounds very fair to me. Shegu is a very kind person who's always making sure that you're having a nice experience and, even though he doesn't speak English (yet), he's always approachable and does his best to make sure that everything is to your liking.

The experience I had is one of the most raw experiences one can get. The conditions are very different from what I was used to (though you still have access to, for instance, really good internet) and the culture is as local as it gets. You live quite close to the beach and to some massive dunes behind the house, which is great as you can go for a swim, surfing or sandboarding at any time. You get the chance to try to teach English to some really motivated kids that, otherwise, wouldn't really have the chance to learn it, and also to exchange life experiences with them, which can both open their minds and feed their ambitions to experience other adventures outside their town/country. Teaching and spending time with these kids will also remind you how lucky (or unlucky, in some scenarios) you are and how many things there are that you take for granted and that don't exist in other parts of the world. And it will take you back to a time when life was simpler, when people didn't have much, but they made do with what they had and they were still happy.

I have really enjoyed my time there, and I did feel like I could contribute to improve the livelihoods of people in Salaverry. If that's something that you value, I highly recommend that you try it out, you won't regret it.

PS: after the first wave that I manage to properly surf (standing on the surfboard for some 20 seconds), I was stung by a diamond ray! It left quite a nice hole on my right foot, Shegu and his friend quickly transported me to the emergency room of the hospital and I was very well taken care of, both by the doctors, nurses and personnel, but also by Shegu and his friend, who carried me from the water to the truck and from there to the hospital. Though it was a bit of a traumatic experience, given the pain that it caused, it also ended up being a nice story to tell, given how kind and supportive everybody was! Within one week, I was back in the water surfing! ;)

I had a great time in Jericó with Camilo and my fellow workawayer Alexis! After having been travelling for a week in very busy parts of Colombia and running around cities, doing a 2-week volunteering at Camilo's hostel was exactly what I needed to slow down and better take in Colombia's culture. Jericó is a beautiful, welcoming town, with a lot of… read more
