Hi, my name is Robe. I am a Filipina who is trying to slowly travel ASEAN countries. I want to totally immerse myself in every countries culture to have a proper grasp of understanding and connect with all our differences. As someone who came from a poor family and had limited access to education, i made it as a main goal to at least give something back to the community while travelling.
A bit of my work and volunteering background:
I started working at the age of 16, as a tutor of a kid with autism together with his three sisters.
After two years, I entered the Call Center industry (sales, tech support, customer service) for almost 3 years which catered US, Canada, UK & Ireland accounts. I used to help with charity works whenever there were some company-organized programs around Manila.
I moved abroad at the age of 21 to work in an educational entertainment industry in Kuwait which mostly involved teaching kids aged 0-14,for more than 4 years.. I was selected to be part of the artistic department responsible in activities like
-arts & crafts
- street dancing
- puppet show
- storytelling
- choreographing
- theater acting/performance
- face painting
- body art
- athletic coach
- juggling
- props making
- walk on stilts and even a mascot!
Then the company transferred me to a different brand (fashion) to be their Store Admin who was responsible for some HR related task, finance reports, opening and closing the store, from cashier TIL's to system-wise processes.
I enjoy activities that help me push my body limits and fell in love with the athletic coaching with kids, so I shifted career as a Personal Trainer.
For my love of kids, during my off day, I dedicated at least 5 hours of volunteering as an Assistant Teacher in a school (Creative Children International School) for special kids.
I can provide recommendations from my previous managers upon request.
