Work experience

I have worked in many different areas ... restaurant, travel agency, hotel, press. My last job was at a bank.
Right now I'm on a sabbatical period, with the objective of know places, people and learn new languages.
My first experience as workpacker was in a hostel in the city of Cordoba, Spain, I loved working as a volunteer and want to repeat the experience. In Cordoba I stayed at the hotel El Sueno, where I founded the Pub Crawl.
I am fluent in Spanish and Portuguese and now I want to improve my English, which is intermediate level.
I am one person, cheerful, outgoing and open to opportunities!

Travel experience

I've been in more than 100 countries on all continents. I am passionate about travel and know new places, people and cultures.
