  • Description

    Hi everyone!
    After finishing my Master degree and working a couple of years in the field of tourism and wildlife rescue, I'm excited to embark on new adventures!
    My main goal at the moment is to arrive to new zealand (Auckland) and find my footing, meet some people and plan the upcoming year, and in exchange would love to help you out!
    I'm curious, hard-working and open-minded and hope to learn and maybe teach lots of different things and skills while i am traveling - there is literally no subject that I can't get excited about :D
    Some of my hobbies are growing veggies, hiking, arts and crafts, as well as rock climbing and doting on animals.

    I'm easy to take care of and don't need much to be happy~
    If you're like-minded, feel free to send me a message!
    I'd love hearing from you!
