I'm Mariana, a Portuguese wanderer on the lookout for exciting projects, innovative ideas, and folks making the world a sunnier place. Fueled by purpose, just point me to any sustainability, conservation, or social innovation initiative, and you'll have my full attention!

Addicted to immersing myself in new cultures and connecting with people, I've traveled, worked, and volunteered in several amazing countries, including Mexico, Cuba, Italy, Spain, Croatia, Morocco, Cape Vert, the USA, the Dominican Republic, Seychelles, and more.

As a slow and conscious traveler, I savor the essence of a place and spending time with locals. I bring a mix of skills, and I'm someone reliable, mature, calm, and embracing simplicity. Nature is my ultimate happy place, and you'll often find me outdoors.

My strong desire is to contribute to positive change, encouraging respect for all beings and nature. With a people-oriented personality and an eagle eye for detail, I feel right at home experimenting with new vegetarian recipes in any kitchen or turning places into art projects through DIY or upcycling. I love dancing (especially Latin beats), practicing yoga, trying out nature sports, and basically doing anything that involves movement.

Let's connect and spend a great time!
