Travelling
Activities i am interested in:
I'm looking for a nice czech family that want help looking after their kids!
My next destination:
Czech Republic - from May 2024 until Aug 2024 View allDescription
I'm Arnau, a 27-year-old psychologist from Barcelona. I am starting my clinical master's degree in September and, in the meanwhile, I would like to spend some time living with a family and taking care of children, while ideally learning a little more about czech culture.
I would like to work with children mainly for personal reasons, because I want to be a father some day and I hope that this experience will improve my abilities to raise my children well. Additionally, I have always loved spending time with kids (I have a sister 15 years younger than me, and many little cousins); I find it to be a very nourishing experience, as they're always so full of joy and life, and (unlike most adults) they are usually very caring and kind.
I am also interested in learning about czech culture, and ideally a bit of the language as well. In my travels, I aim to find the place where I will want to raise my family in the future; I've previously been to Germany, Serbia, and Hungary, and now I want to see how good of a fit the Czech Republic would be. I love traveling the world and discovering new cultures, new ways of seeing things, new approaches to life that I maybe had not thought of before, and I hope to get to truly understand how the czech people live.
Relevant to work: I've worked mainly in psychological clinics, mostly related to addiction recovery. I have also volunteered before in taking care of dogs, both in a private house and at a shelter. I have no prior professional experience working with children, but it's a field I would love to explore.
About me: I consider myself a cheerful and very curious person. My biggest love in life is learning new things and feeling a true sense of freedom. My main hobbies are writing, making educational videos, and working out. I want to live a life without regrets.
I speak catalan, spanish, english, some german and a little bit of serbian. I can teach your children english or spanish!
Other relevant details: I am working for a mental health start-up which is currently in its initial stages and therefore not making any money. I would need a few hours every day to dedicate to it. Other than that, I would love to feel like a member of the family and help around the house or with the little ones.Interests

Although I don't expect to become fluent, I think learning the basics of the language is essential to get a grasp of the culture. Therefore, I would love to learn a little bit of czech. I can teach Spanish or English.Skills and knowledge I'd like to share or learn

Ah, I wrote everything already in the profile description, my bad.
I would say my two most developed skills are people skills (mainly emotional skills) and technical skills (like programming, web design, etc). I was trained as a therapist and have a good ability to understand the mental space someone else is in. I tend to value the human aspect over everything else.
I can also cook! Even though I'm still a humble student of the craft.Age

· There were three dogs, and they all were extremely fun and loving and well behaved. Lavinia was a little stubborn princess and Nathanael a playful baby, and they gave me a lot of warmth and company. We explored many areas around the forest nearby (every day we were going somewhere new) and we played in the garden. Leon was old and… read more
