About Me

Hi lovely people! I am an ex-EVS volunteer who was doing the service in organization called Centru Tbexbix working with children and elderly and who fell in love with this special island and decided to stay. Now working in the International School with the kindergarten children :)
My biggest current passion is yoga - practicing and teaching.
Always carrying Maltese sun and colours with me, ready to share :)
UPDATE: I’ve finally got qualified with 200 hours yoga teacher training ! Spent a month in Himalayas and fell in love with India.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Teaching is a part of my life so whatever I know I can share and teach.

Music plays an important part in my life, so if it is your case too, we can share the moments of music appreciation together weather it is going to listen to something live and then have a nice discussion or just put on the headphones, listen, feel, speak about it.

We can also cook together, I’m very keen on plant based cooking and eager to share what I’ve already learnt about it.

And I am fun, honestly :)
