Ismael was wonderful and very dedicated during his time with us; he was a volunteer and a committed, hardworking friend, full of new ideas and always open to helping and listening. He brought a lot of art to our social media, capturing the mountain's essence in every detail! We were very happy to welcome him and to learn from you; we wish you good luck and continued success on your journey. We HIGHLY RECOMMEND HIM; you will surely add a lot wherever you go! Hugs, Isma!

O meu voluntariado no Pub da Montanha foi ótimo. O local é bem isolado, fica no camping, que tem uma paisagem linda na serra catarinense. Fiquei cuidando das mídias sociais e criando conteúdo para o pub com bastante liberdade criativa, o que foi ótimo. As 3 refeições da vaga e as horas de trabalho também foram respeitadas! Só agradecer a todo mundo que encontrei por lá por essa experiência!

Ismael is a very calm person, he completed all the tasks agreed upon and was always willing to help us. He was also flexible with the schedules due to some requests we had here during his stay. When you want to come back, the doors are open.

Voluntariar no the guest house foi ótimo, tive uma experiência super tranquila e agradável no hostel. Como viajei em baixa temporada as tarefas eram bem tranquilas e tinha pouca gente no hostel, mas o Renan, Kel e Joaquim me fizeram sentir em casa todo o tempo que estive aqui. Tive um quarto privativo no tempo que estava aqui, o que é muito bom pra quem já está na estrada há bastante tempo. Os horários são respeitados e as tarefas bem distribuídas entre todo mundo. A localização é ótima também, recomendo pra qualquer um que queira conhecer a linda cidade de Guarapari!

Background

Education

I work as a photographer and in video production, so I am always studying daily about these subjects, in addition to having already taken courses in these areas to develop myself even further.

I also hold a degree in Accounting Sciences from UCS-RS, although I no longer work in the field.

Work experience

I work as a freelance photographer and videomaker on different projects. In addition to my own photos and original videos, I also provide services for other people and companies on various projects. In recent years I have been specializing in gastronomic and product photography.

I have already carried out some activities related to digital marketing, such as paid traffic management, website construction, and social media management for third parties.

I have also worked formally in different accounting offices, with specialization in the tax-fiscal sector.

Travel experience

Since my first solo trip in 2014, hostel life has captivated me — for its hospitality, freedom and the ease of being anywhere in the world at an affordable price while living in an enriching environment.

A few years ago I discovered volunteering, which was the push I needed to start a new, more nomadic phase of my life. Since then, I have been balancing my work with volunteering and spending even more time traveling!

Besides being able to participate in activities at the places I pass through, I feel very happy to help other people by doing what I do best!

Other volunteer experiences

Yes, in addition to various volunteer experiences here at Worldpackers, I have a few more experiences outside the platform that I did on the recommendation of friends.
