Travel information

I am currently

Description

Hello, my name is Pedro. I am Brazilian and currently living in Canada as a permanent resident. I enjoy traveling and getting to know new places and people. I’ve worked as an Economist and Business Consultant, delivering courses and providing consulting services for family businesses — a field I remain passionate about.

I also have a strong interest in languages. I am a native Portuguese speaker and have spoken English since childhood. Since 2023, I have also been fluent in French.

I’m someone who is always eager to learn, who enjoys noticing the details of everyday life, and who values meaningful, hands-on experiences. I currently hold a full G driver's license and other official documents from the province of Ontario. At the moment, I’m staying at a home in the Toronto area through a Workaway experience.

I am now looking to apply for paid Workaway positions, preferably in Ontario.

More details about your skills

Since arriving in Canada in February, I have completed three Workaway experiences that allowed me to develop and apply a wide range of practical skills. I have helped care for an elderly person with health issues, assisted with cooking and general maintenance in a vegetarian household, and, in my current placement, I’ve been involved in building a sidewalk, doing general house repairs, gardening, and landscaping. You can find some photos of this work on my profile.

In addition to these hands-on experiences, I previously worked extensively with spreadsheets and software in my career in Brazil. A significant part of my job was computer-based, and I also focused on customer communication. I performed financial calculations to assess the viability of new businesses and provided advice to solve financial issues in existing ones.

I also have basic DIY skills. I've assembled furniture, painted walls, and completed small electrical and plumbing repairs. Furthermore, having lived on a farm in Brazil, I’m familiar with basic tractor operation and have knowledge of crops such as soybeans, corn, and various garden vegetables.

What else ...

Well, I really enjoy cycling, gym exercises, and other sports, but I also love eating good food: pizza, hamburgers, feijoada (a typical Brazilian dish). It's all about balance—I do a lot of physical exercise, but I'm quite liberal about food and like to eat all kinds of meals. I also enjoy trying different beverages. I'm not a smoker. I respect everyone and appreciate inclusive and welcoming environments.
