My name is Jorge but you can call me Figue. I grew up in a village surrounded by beautiful mountains and located only 1hour from the beach, in the southeast of Spain. I am very grateful for my childhood and I believe (according to Maria Montessori's words) that childhood constitutes the most important element in an adult's life, for it is in his early years that a man(or woman) is made. The only thing is that I still consider myself a child so that means that I keep learning from every single detail of life.

At this moment I am travelling around the world to learn about cultures, societies, languages, and humans, so I am not able to host at my home town.

-I was voluntering for 5 years in a youth community project in Spain. Here is where I discovered that the secret of childhood is the secret of life.
-I studied to become Primary teacher 4 years in Spain and 1 year in Norway (Bergen)
-I lived and worked as a kindergarden teacher in Bergen for 1 year.

At certain point in my life, someone showed me that by learning languages I could find freedom, know more about the world, humans and myself. At this point I have the feeling that a great trip has just started in my life , and I just want to love every single detail of it.

I try to be passionate in all those things I do and I fall in love with people who is very passionate in all the things they do.I learn a lot from them. Even simple things are amazing if we do them with passion.
