Travelling
Activities i am interested in:
I'm in India right now with my boyfriend and we are trying to explore India through Workaway projects.
Description
I'm a part-time freelance translator who wishes to make traveling and doing good deeds a life's goal for as long as I could afford. Continuous learning from inspirational human beings is also my one of the most favorite things in the world.
I have done plenty of voluntary projects related to various fields from Urban Gardening, Sustainable farming, Animal care (in a Dog & Cat Rescue center), Education for kids, Cultural Exchange, working on a boat etc. and of course have an utter interest to do more.
If you ask for my preference, I would choose animal welfare/conservation as my favorite field to learn and contribute. I have volunteered (mostly as a live-in volunteer) for a lot of shelters/animal welfare orgs with various scale, from Vietnam, Nepal, India, working with dogs, cats, sea turtles, and bears. I hold a certificate of Veterinary Assistant course hosted by WVS in India which focused only in spay/neuter program for dogs and cats. I still have a lot to learn and have great will for it.
The next biggest interest would be natural building and sustainable living. I'm still looking for a nice project so I can learn from scratch especially about planning and structure building. I recently helped my friend to build a little cob house from scratch in Vietnam and I was a wonderful experience. What I want to learn more will be finishing techniques (especially Tadelakt)
I graduated the bachelor degree of Interior Design, but as you see, I'm not really working in the field :D. However, I like to make DIY things and am very able to do physical work to create arty projects. Painting is a form of meditation for me.Languages

What else ...
I can ride a scooter, or learn how to ride a motorcycle if required. I'm most familiar with semi-auto motorbikes.
I started to do some aerial yoga and pilates and really want to keep doing it somehow, but being on the road most of the time doesn't really give me the time or tools to do it. But maybe something completely different to help my body stretched, more flexible, then that's alright too.
Also, regarding my smoking, I'm not crazy about it, could totally do it outside the premises if being required. I respect house rules.Some more information
