Dear Rosita Dias,
I would like to have the opportunity to volunteer in your farm. I would prefer to do it for one week in month of October, for a trial cause it's my first time.
If I enjoy I would like to stay longer.
I'm Carolina from Azores. I came to mainland to study at university, after that I went abroad for erasmus (Normway) and did 2 international internships (belgium and Spain).
I'm currently without job so I have a lot o free time. I'm proactive, enjoy to work and I have the ability to successfully cooperate with people of different origins.
Looking forward to hear from you
