Hey!
I am Maïa, 27 y.o., and project manager. My main focus are in Gender Equality and Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights. I am also a globetrotter!
I love to travel all around the world and meet amazing people!
I am a long term volunteer for Mwache Shuleni NGO where we try to help girls to continue their education even if they have little toddlers, in Mukono Municipality in Uganda! I am proud to fight against pregnancy-based discrimination and gender-based violence.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I did bodyboarding in the Pacific Ocean in Nicaragua! 🌊
I drived a typical boat in Venezia thanks to Pedro met on Couchsurfing app. 😍
The police stopped me (with the siren and the beacons) less than an hour after landing in Reykjavik because of the lights of the rental car. 🚔
I lived by myself in a Zanzibari village (and it was amazing) 🏝
I slid down a 20 meter high and long slide and swam in the Nile River in Uganda 🏊🏻♀️
I hitchhiked in Paraguay to go to a waterfall couple hundreds kilometers away with +40°C. I arrived and then had to walk 6 more kilometers on a mountain with my backpack and tent. I arrived near the beginning of the waterfall trail and asked to the neighbors how far it was because the dark was almost there. "No está lejos, puedes ir" But after 30 minutes in the dark... I decided to build the tent in the middle of nowhere, and I woke up in the middle of the cows and zebus. I found the waterfall, empty because of the dryness 🤣 came back to my cows and zebus. That appeared to be my favorite moment in Paraguay. 💓🐮🐃
I visited Casablanca and Marrakech, Morroco, for 4 days because my first flight was delayed and I was stuck in the country. It was amazing! 🇲🇦
I signed a long term contract to work in a NGO in Togo! 🥺🇹🇬
