Bee was a wonderful volunteer to have that j wish I have more of her and for longer. She was quite supportive and very proactive and loved the hostel and its guests like her own. She is a beautiful kind person who did many things for us including setting up a cute coffee station. Bee comes highly recommended by me. Do come back more often 💙

What a pleasure been part of this beautiful project! Aparna is super flexible, has a huge warm heart (so try to enjoy this project in the best way and not just be another volunteer), is always willing to help you and clarify things of work. She will allow you to be free to explore and activate your creative side. Just do it! My days in Varkala were quiet/chill and with the company of Ancy (manager) I could understand more the local culture and live beautiful experiences! Thanks for having me, Aparna! You rock! And I can't wait to be back one day to see this project still strong and bigger! =)

Bee wass such an amazing volunteer to have that we wish we have more time with her or more of her. She is a gem of a person who does many things proactively for you. She planted beautiful ferns, set up a coffee station and was a huge help during our yoga-swim retreat. Can't wait to host her again. Do come back Bee 💙

About me as an author

Arrumo o escorredor de pratos de forma que os utensílios se encaixem perfeitamente. Não assisto trailer de filme para que a surpresa esteja presente constantemente. Sair da rotina me deixa mais animada porque posso voltar pra ela. Já escapei para o México, Turquia, Venezuela, Peru, Colômbia, Estados Unidos, 13 países do continente Africano mais ali na Europa e lá na Filipinas. Acho que é mais ou menos isso. E mais amor, por favor.

Background

Education

I graduated in Advertising and Publicity, and also in TV and Radio. Two degrees for someone eager for learning.

Formada em Publicidade e Propaganda e, também, em Rádio e TV. Duas graduações pra quem tem sede de aprender.

Work experience

I've worked on TV for a long time. I've been to Record and to some others Brazilian producers where I created content for Multishow, Endemol, GNT, TNT. I used to be freelancer at New Content, a content agency, where I used to produce content for LATAM Airline. But five years ago I decided to explore the world. Oh! And I was also receptionist in one of the hotels of Blue Tree chain, that's why I love to work in Hostels and Guesthouses.

Travel experience

I've travelled to Peru, Colombia, Ecuador and Chile while working as a producer at TV TAM Nas Nuvens. Before that, just for hobby, I went to Portugal, Spain, Germany, France and Italy. I've been to US on the classic Disney trip when I was 15 and again few years later for an English course in Albany, NY. Cancún, Isla Margarita, Turkey, Argentina and Paraguay for tourism. The latest adventure was making a dream come true as I am doing my world trip around the world. Have been far from home for almost 2 and a half years.
