Hola como estas! I'm Amy, I'm 27 and from California. I recently quit my corporate job in San Francisco to travel through Latin America, learn Spanish and experience a different way of life. I love traveling, cooking, hiking, meeting new people and having cultural exchanges. I am interested in living and learning about holistic, spiritual, healing ways of living. I find that traveling has allowed me to deeply connect with other like-minded people, explore new cultures and experience a whole different way of life aside from the American 9-5, which no longer interests me. I have a passion for helping underserved populations, volunteering and feel strongly about social justice.
In terms of volunteering/work, I'm responsible, self-sufficient, enthusiastic, hard working and outgoing. I am a quick learner, so even if I don't have direct experience with the volunteer work, I am easily able to learn a new skill and work hard at it. I am also very social, outgoing and able to connect with people from all walks of life. I've done a couple Workaways in Europe, South America and South East Asia and have loved the experiences at each and am excited to get involved in other projects!
My philosophy on life is to be open and authentic with yourself and others, as it fosters happiness and deep connections with others. I'm so looking forward to creating deep connections with those I meet on my travels and bring something to them in exchange :)
Light & Love,
Amy
