Olá! 

My name is Tânia, I am 24 years old and I am from Portugal . I will be working as a volunteer in JUKS, an organisation that works with youths with disabilities, in Tallinn for a period of 9 months.

I recently finished my degree in social work and I believe that this will be a great opportunity to develop my professional and personal skills and to be able to help other as well, especially learning with them.

This is not my first experience abroad; I lived in Romania and in Czech Republic before, where I had the opportunity to work with young people at risk of social exclusion.  I was a peer mentor and helped to prepare free time activities for the young people.

I am looking forward to meet you all and be able to learn with you and hopefully also allow you to have the opportunity to learn a bit more about my country and culture. 

See you soon….

Tânia
