Overview
About Me
I was born and always lived in the city of Barcelona, except for a year that I spent living and studying in Holland. I can speak English, Spanish and Catalan. I would love to learn French (I can speak just a little bit of it).
I studied engineering and management but I didn't enjoy them and I don't see myself working in those fields right now. So far I've worked as a Maths teacher for students preparing access to university exams, and I've worked in other small jobs but unfortunately my real job is still unknown...
I define myself as an open-minded person, willing to learn about anything I find on my path. Nature and biodiversity particularly amaze me, and I would really like to learn about it and about how to preserve them. I am also very interested in science, especially physics and biology (even though I don't know so much about biology). I started practicing yoga two years ago and I enjoy learning about it. I love having conversations about ethics and philosophy.
Last summer I decided to spend a year only travelling and volunteering, learning about the world and its people but also about myself.
I don't eat meat or fish and I am NOT looking for a party-trip but a healthy way of life, so I am more calm and prefer enjoying the day trekking in nature or practicing yoga than partying hard in the night. Of course, I would love to share it with you! I am a respectful person and non-smoker.
