About me:

I'm navagating the space between making arrangments to travel and finding jobs that make this possible without commiting to something that will hamper the first goal.. I am trying to find oppurtunities in Ecuador that would continue this trend. I have a track record of finding jobs that combine the mundane with something unique and am looking forward to finding the next adventure.

Let's collaborate:

If you have been to Ecuador or are currently there I am trying to find great oppurtunities volunteering to participate in. Ideally I'd like a project to dive into and thrive while doing it. I am also looking for ways to incorperate a job (yep for money) into my passion for helping people. If you have any ideas I am open to anything so give me a shout! I'm a flexible, motivated, passionate person who can multi-task like a banshee. I have writing skills, am dedicated to things that I believe in deeply, and have an appreciation for finding and learning new things.
