Hey !
my name is Lea. I am 26 years old and I finished my studies in social work three years ago. After studying all these years, I discovered part of the world, people and myself through practice, experience in different fields by doing, by experimenting.

I started, in September 2022, with the Camino del Santiago (from Geneva to Finistera _Spain) during 4 month with my backpack 🎒. Then I went in Nepal 🇳🇵 for a workaway in a school for 2 month. I did one month of trekking in the Himalaya: I saw 👀 the Everest ! And one month and a half traveling in Nepal.
Then I continued: Mongolia, South Korea, Japan, Philippines, Australia and New Zeland.

I discover a lot of new place and new culture but also part of myself. Most of those travel I did alone.

I love experience with people and I need some moment for myself. I enjoy a lot spending time in the nature or just looking the water. And I was definitely out of my comfort zone !

Now I am back home, starting studying again in Ayurveda therapy, I am also working as a swimming teacher and as a social worker.
I am very busy but feel free to ask if you need a place to stay or some tips about Geneva :)

With a lot of love,
Léa

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I get in 2015 for the first Time in Niger. Everyone was scared. They told me that it was a really poor country... I stay two weeks there, I never feel me in danger or in a poor country. But what is poverty ?! There were so rich in humanity ! More that in Switzerland. Isn’t that the poverty?
