Índigo

My name is Indigo and I’m a 28-year-old Spanish girl living in Brussels. I’m working in the Human Rights field as a lawyer, what for me also means Animal Rights & I’m also vegetarian.

As a child I was never able to have a dog or a cat because we lived in a small appartment in the south of Spain but we always had turtles (one of them is turning 20 years this month & I love her sooo much!), sometimes birds and once I was lucky enough to take care of a friend’s dog for 6 months! I was the happiest person in the world! A cocker spaniel called “Nedea”. My friends usually had dogs, hamsters and even hedgehogs and I loved me go to my friends’ houses to play with me :)

As I love and loved animals, my parents would take me every summer during 4 or 5 years to spend one month in a summer camp, that was an ecological farm, in Granada (Spain) in which we had to take care of the pigs, horses, cows and sheeps. We used to milk the cows, clean the house of the pigs, shear the sheep’s and create our own clothes from it. Those were my favourites weeks of the year!

I love every kind of animal (except spiders...sorry for the owners of this animal ;)) as all of us are life beings who deserve to right to a nice life!

If you give me the opportunity to meet you, you will see that I am a very happy, optimistic and friendly person and I think those are good features for an animal keeper :)
