About Me.
My name is Virginia, and I was born and raised in Seville, Andalusia, before spending nearly half my life in Edinburgh, Scotland.
Over the years, my passions have led me on a diverse and enriching professional journey. I’ve always been deeply curious about exploring new places, immersing myself in different cultures, and learning from the lives and perspectives of others. Understanding how people see the world through their customs, languages, and connections has been a constant source of inspiration for me.
This curiosity has shaped my path in the social field, where I’ve worked as an educator on international cooperation projects in countries like Brazil, Uganda, the Philippines, Sri Lanka, Nepal, and Ghana. I’ve also trained educators and taught languages, blending insights from each unique experience into my teaching approach today.
