Descrição

Enthusiastic about getting to know new cultures, languages ​​and life stories different from mine. As for my attitude as a traveller, I always try to connect as much as possible with locals but also with other travellers, in order to learn from them, because I strongly believe that trips are there to make us grow.

Talking, listening to music, reading or watching a movie, spending some time outside (or inside and with food of course!) are the things I most enjoy doing while travelling. I've been a vegetarian for a year now, because I think it's one more way to help mitigate the effects of global warming. I am currently learning to eat more plants, so my repertoire of menus to share is somewhat reduced, but that is what creativity is for!

I am a very curious person but at the same time I respect the privacy of others. I will never ask uncomfortable questions, but I will always be interested in hearing from others if they are willing to share their stories with me.

If there is something that I learned while studying architecture and that characterizes me today, it is to have a very creative approach aimed at solving problems of all kinds, not just technical ones. In addition to Spanish and English, I speak German. In fact, I am a teacher of German as a foreign language and I worked for several years teaching this language to people of all ages, from 4 to 70 years old! I am currently learning Italian, but since I am fond of languages, I also wanted to learn at least a little Russian when I travelled there. I am convinced that in this way it is possible to better understand the cultures we visit and learn from them.

Quais são suas habilidades?

My great passions are architecture, design and languages. I am one of those people who generally finds a way to solve problems, not only technical or constructive, but of all kinds - I guess I'm also one of those people who like finding new problems that need to be solved, as well, because somehow, I have a little need of feeling myself challenged. I really like teaching German, which is what I worked on for many years. Although I have and have had students of very varied ages, I worked much more with children and adolescents, and I taught much more than just German. Being an architect gave me a background in mathematics and physics which is usually good enough to help teenagers in these two areas as well. Working with children and teens has shown a playful magic that makes learning easier. I am convinced that learning should always be fun or interesting, that is why I put a lot of energy in my students enjoying time with me, and I also have fun during the time that I am with them.

As for the more "conventional" jobs, everything I don't know, I learn relatively quickly. I am not an expert with computers, but I have an average knowledge of what is expected from a 28-year-old person, that is, I know how to use almost all the basics, plus some 2D and 3D design programs as well as editing software. I have a very proactive attitude towards work, I am committed and if there is something that always characterizes me, in any work environment, it is good humor.
