Hey there! My name is Nil, I'm 21 and I'm from Catalonia.
*️*️Update: I've already found hosts for the summer*️*️
I have a deep passion for traveling, exploring and learning about the world. My first workaway experiences changed my perception of travel, I discovered a much deeper way to connect with a place and its people while contributing to amazing projects and growing as a person. So I'm very eager to repeat the workaway adventure.
I'm a language enthusiast. This June I'll graduate from my degree in Translation and Interpreting in Barcelona. During these 4 years I've been studying English and Russian translation, and though I'm very fluent in English, my Russian is not as good. I haven't really had a chance to practice the spoken language because my studies were more focused on written translation, so this is why this summer I would like to volunteer in Russia. I want to immerse myself into the language and the culture so I can improve my skills and learn more about the country and its people.
Apart from languages and traveling I like being outdoors, mountains, hiking, architecture, art, history and cooking.
I consider myself a responsible, hard working, open minded, flexible and easy going person. Whenever I do something I like to do it the best I can, especially if I'm helping others, and I always try to improve. I'm willing to help out with any task, the more things I can learn and practice the better!
Can't wait to meet some cool people!

Teaching
-I've worked in a campsite as a receptionist for two summers, so I have experience in the tourism sector, as well as dealing with customers and working in a team.
-I also have worked as a waiter and shop assistant.
-I know how to cook several dishes, including some typical Catalan and Spanish foods.
-I'm a very creative person and I love painting and drawing, so I could provide help with artwork if needed.
-I've had some experience with informal language teaching.
In 2016 I spent two months in two workaways in Scotland and Latvia, where I was able to practice different skills such as weeding, digging, dry stone walling, mowing grass and gardening in general, cleaning, cooking, carpentry and animal care.
