Description
Hola, mi llamo Katerina Lupini. I am a 21 year old student from Cape Town, South Africa. I am moving to Spain later in the year to complete my studies in art. I want to come spend time in the country before my studies begin as an opportunity to gain sufficiency, improve my Spanish & most importantly get in touch with nature & learn handiness skills.
I am extremely passionate about animals, no matter what kind. if I can spend time helping animals I feel the most peace. I am a quick learner & a bubbly sociable person. My other passions and interests include Food / cooking, History & archaeology, the ocean & art. I generally love to learn more about new topics, hear new perspectives from peoples unique lives & share in interests with others.
Growing up in South Africa - specifically Cape Town - has provided me with a rich understanding of the importance of balance in life. It has allowed me to embrace & have a deep respect for many other cultures. & most importantly, it connected me with nature & taught me to be resourceful & efficient with problem solving.
I hope that you consider me as an option to come & spend time in your space. I am extremely excited to learn new & vital skills & get to know people. I am down for any task handed to me. I promise to be a good addition to your team. I am respectful, do not make much noise & ready to learn.
