    ABOUT ME

    I am Laia Shamirian a 35-years old food writer born in Barcelona. I studied science and nutrition, fields I still love. I also love cooking new recipes (and sharing the results), learning all about the food traditions from a new place and writing. At the moment I make side incomes thanks to writing SEO friendly content about gastronomy for online spanish magazines. Oh, I do love coffee as well. I think Italy is responsible for that last one. Since I move to Florence one year ago having a couple of macchiatos per day became the most natural habit ever. Glad it happened, is so goood.

    In the past I had the chance to travel to India for almost a year, a bit of Costa Rica, Nepal and Israel. It was always very fulfilling. Since pandemics I basically volunteer in nature projects around Spain and a bit in Italy when I first moved.

    I am very happy to be visiting México this year and would love to repeat some volunteering experiences. Here is a bit more about how I helped in the past:


    WORKAWAY & OTHER EXPERIENCES

    I am looking for active environments like hostels. I would absolutetely love to match with some digital nomad friendly places. I can be of help with content creation, wordpress, hospitality, reception, welcoming even preparing nice breakfasts for guests. One of my best memories was in Ruka Hostel at Puerto Viejo in Costa Rica, can't wait to repeat a experience like that.

    My experience in the past as a workawayer was:

    - As a receptionist. I took care of hostels in Costa Rica, India, Florence and Spain. In Spain, I was in fact an Albergue in the Camino the Santiago.

    - I have helped in Pais Valencia in different projects that involved olive picking, gardening, taking care of dogs and for a short time some audio edition between 2020 and 2021.

    - I took care of children in India at Blossom Spring NGO and in Masnou, Catalonia with a family of climibing lovers.


    Happy to see what is next!
