I. Show us an activity you enjoy doing. Tell us how you think it contributes to your personal and

professional development.

I enjoy inspiring people by hope and acts to change an unjust world by love and care for our neighbours.

For example

In 2008 I helped organizing a mission trip from Costa Rica to support Carlos Quesada

language school in Nouakchott, Mauritania.

Our project ends up with 16 costaricans that traveled to Mauritania committed to help the school and the cause.

What we came to do ?

-Teaching english and spanish classes -Teaching embroidery classes.-Develop a new business venture: The cafeteria of the school.-Play music and share with the Mauritanians.

PersonalDevelopment

PersonalDevelopment

• How happy the people could be with little things.• You end up receiving more than you give when you

don’t expect it.

The small details like this girl smile makes your day GREAT! In Mauritania

Professional Development

• Exchange thoughts and ideas understanding the arab world vision.

• Deal difficult situations is always better if you face them as a team.

• Respect, tolerate and learn from other ways of living instead of trying to change/impose a culture.

That’s why I enjoy motivating, leading,

and organizing people to get involved in social

aid projects.
