Well, Goran is a nice person, trustable, funny, excellent cooker and also his brother Ivan. His parents are incredible people, his mothers cooked delicious soup for us in our break. I liked to stay there even if it was less than planned. Negative point: I dont know if the past volunteers stayed at the same place that I stayed, but we(me and the others 6 volunteers) didn't stay In Bol as is written in the profile. There was a guy called Leroy(staff or volunteer, I dnt know), that he was fuck stupid asshole and think he owns the world. In general was good, but know that you won't stay In Bol

Background

Education

I'm a Building Technician. I've completed the course in July, 2017.
Still don't know what to do for my professional life.

Work experience

I worked in the warehouse in a Four Star hotel in Copacabana - RJ, called PortoBay Hotel. I started working there in 2013 and at the end of 2016 I asked if they could fire me because I needed to do an internship.

Updated: now I'm working in the city hall as an intern, creating maps of Rio de Janeiro State and analyzing datas of it! I'm going to leave work at 31th of March to travel all Europe in a bike!
Oh, I used to work as a Bartender and drone pilot as well in my free time.
And the things that I don't know how to do, I learn!

Travel experience

My greatest experience was in a Cruise Ship that I did with my brother in 2012. Was amazing because we need to talk sometimes in english and spanish and in that time I felt nervous talking in another language. We went to Buenos Aires, Itajaí and Punta del Leste then we came back to Rio de Janeiro.
Another travel experience was when I did the crossing between Petrópolis x Terepólis walking. It was an amazing 3 days experience.

The most incredible trip I did was in the beginning of December, 2016. I went alone to Croatia - worldpackers took me there by the way - to help to build a new hostel and after that, for some reason - I went to Switzerland to help an amazing person taking care of three huskies, Akamaru, Sydney and Hinata. The trip lasted 49 days and I learned a lot of things by myself and about the world! From this trip I wrote a book called 'Apenas vá: um pequeno relato sobre seguir seu sonho' (in english is Just Go: a short story about following your dream).
