  • Qualcosa di particolare su di me

    Hi! Afrafasti is my scout name; my real name is Inés.
    And, since not much is uncommon about me, here go the most common things about me: I love reading, hiking, dancing, my cat (my cat is one of my favorite beings in the world), going on walks, eating, listening to podcasts and meeting friends to chat about many things and nothing, discuss movies and series and books... I also love quite a bit of alone time, I'm an introvert, and period novels are my absolute fave. I'd love to meet new people, learn new things and, hopefully, maybe practice my French and Portuguese...?

  • Libri/autori/film preferiti

    I love reading, both contemporary and older novels and books. 17th-19th century novels, and especially (but not only) Jane Austen. I like to watch movies with kind, nice and light messages behind them, as well as beautiful photography.

  • Città e stati che ho visitato

    Cuba and Kampala are the furthest I've been, both in kilometers and in cultural differences. I would love to travel more, but I understand that the world is changing and we need to adapt, do things differently and appreciate that which is closer to us.

    Other places I've been to (and loved): Paris, Bourdeaux and the Jura region (France), Greece (Athens, Olympia, Meteora), UK (Hampshire, London, Cornwall, Lake District and a bit of Devon), Istambul (on my way to Uganda), Düsseldorf, Idstein and Friburg (Germany), Sofia, some of Spain's beautiful places: Mérida, Asturias (love), Cantabria, País Vasco, Cádiz...

  • La mia opinione sulla natura umana

    It doesn't determine much. Education, culture and society shape who we are as individuals and groups.

  • Sono un esperto di...

    Nothing. I've trained as a cultural anthropologist and a contemporary historian, as well as leisure activities coordinator and, now, English teacher. But my passion, and my challenge, is teaching, especially History and Philosophy, and now I teach English (first official job).
    I'm also quite a good organiser, if I do say so myself.

  • Vivere all'estero per un anno

    I've lived in England for two years. I would love to live in France (the south), Canada, and maybe Iceland (if it's only one year).

  • Migliorare il sistema scolastico

    Cease all kind of competition. Cooperation is the key, and kindness is the way. Also, truly learning and not just memorising.
    And talking, reflecting, reading about education is essential, we need to have a good filosofical base for it.

  • È meglio adesso

    Clamness.

  • I risultati di cui vado più fiero

    Baking biscuits without a recipe.

  • Adoro parlare di...

    Books, thought, spirituality, History and (some) gossip. And learning things I know nothing about.

  • Rendere il mondo un posto migliore

    Scout since 2005, YES QUEEN. Leave every part of the world better than you found it.

  • A 10 anni da adesso

    No idea. Hopefully somewhere nice, in a house with LOTS of sunlight and nature (as opposed to "urban" ) just 5 minutes away from my doorstep. I love the outdoors!

  • Abilità personali

    Moving my pinkie toe independently. And a special ability to bruise.

  • Un piccolo trucco o consiglio

    Stay with those that help you feel calm, inspired and centered.

  • Vorrei che le persone sapessero di più riguardo...

    Listening
    Respect
    Menstruation.
    Mental Health

  • Una sfida personale

    Acknowledging and talking about mental health, and de-stigmatizing it.
