Hi there!

I'm Manuela (32), a language, creative storytelling and yin yoga teacher/ empirical visual artist/ nature & music Lover 🙂

I am also a business manager, and I am from Colombia ☕🦋⛰️.

I love nature and outdoor activities, children, animals, plants, freedom and happiness 🌲🐝 🧒🐶🐴🐱🌿.

I'm passionate about exploration, arts, cultures, music, photography, ancestral wisdom, and the beauty and strength of life 📷🏞️🌌🌹.

I am looking for Workaways in places where I can connect with these things. I can help you in your tourism project/hotel/hostel with the management, marketing, social organization or content creation📹✏️. I can also be a language 👩‍🏫 or yoga 🧘‍♀️ teacher for children, teenagers or adults and/ or help you with housesitting/pet sitting, doing gardening 🌱 and cooking 🥗.

As you can read, I am a versatile person. I am spontaneous, energetic, social, lively, playful, kind and curious.

A lot of things make me happy, for example, when I share quality time with my loved ones or with new friends; when I play instruments, sing or dance; when I listen to amazing stories; when I walk through nature or the city and appreciate beautiful landscapes or new city treasures such as cultural centres, cinemas, cafés or bookstores.

My main motivations are connecting with nature, discovering new places and sharing good moments. Also, sharing the best of me: my kindness, creativity, empathy, joy, and knowledge. I'm always open to learning new things and embracing new experiences.

My hobbies often vary between reading, listening to music, playing the guitar, ukelele or shamanic drums. I often escape from the city to visit natural places, especially where I can ride bicycle, ride horse, do trekking, or bathe in rivers or the sea. I love contemplating nature, doing gardening, cooking meals together with my family, having a coffee with friends, outdoor concerts, going to the cinema and cultural events.

In this moment of my life I'd be really glad to provide both languages and Yin Yoga lessons (a very special yoga practice focused in the emotional wellbeing). I teach Spanish, English, Portuguese and/or French, with methods mainly based on storytelling, games and self-knowledge, (or according to the student's needs). I also carry an aromatherapy kit to accompany the yoga sessions for the part of the final relaxation in case my students are interested.

Feel free to contact me and let me know if you are interested in any other details, I am more than happy to experience a cultural/knowledge/skills exchange!

Was könntest du arbeiten?

My expertise: languages, yin yoga, storytelling, and creativity.

Educational Background:
I have a degree in Business Management, a Master's in Transmedia Storytelling, professional training in Language Teaching and Education, and a 50-h Yoga Alliance Certification in Yin Yoga. I've also learned about painting and artistic installations. In 2022, I studied at the School of Machines, Making & Make-Believe, a non-profit organization dedicated to the imaginative exploration of art, technology, design, and human connection in Berlin, Germany.

Strengths:
Empathy, responsibility, management, communication and leadership. Highly proficient in Spanish, English and Portuguese, very good at French, and verbally fluent in Italian.

My volunteer/work/travel experience:
In 2019, I worked 6 months as a volunteer teacher in a community grassroots project in Medellin, Colombia with Glot, a local Foundation focused on language education, where I learned the importance and value of contributing to and learning from local projects and vulnerable communities. I also worked as a translator volunteer for Peace Brigades International from 2017 to 2019.

I have 8+ years of experience being a language teacher/mentor for children, teenagers &adults. I have also worked as a scriptwriter, proofreader, translator, and interpreter. In 2019 I co-authored a national award-winning interactive book and published two international academic papers.

I have an adventurous and joyful spirit, I've been to several countries and have lived for short periods in Miami, U.S; Ottawa, Canada; Tours, France; Berlin, Germany, São Jose do Rio Preto, Brazil; and for longer periods in Bogotá, Medellín and Cali, Colombia, my natal country.
