Meu próximo destino:
Bahia, Brazil - desde Jan 2024 até Mai 2024 Ver tudoDescrição
I am currently retired and living in Brazil for 6 months a year. I have been in love with Brazilian culture and people since my first trip to Bahia in 1989. For the other six months a year, I plan to travel. In 2023 I traveled and volunteered through Workaway to Lebanon fro three months and to India for five months. In 2024 I plan on staying in Brazil from January through May then travel to Columbia, Thailand, and Bali for a total of 6 months hopefully through Workaway. I am a mother of two adult children, and we lived in Mexico for almost 23 years where we owned a small vegan hotel and restaurant. I volunteeed with an NGO at an orphanage for the last 7 years where I designed and implemented physical, artistic, and English language activities for preschool children up to teens. As I travel I am still a board member of the NGO and help them online and social media. My passions include cultural travel, the beach, playing drums, yoga, healthy vegan cooking, and teaching children with playing and artistic activities.

I am fluent in English and almost fluent in Spanish. I am energetic and care to do things well when I am working but laid back and relaxed when off duty. I am a gracious guest and extremely considerate of other people's space and privacy.
