Description
Hello, my name is Emilio, I originally come from Italy and I've been living and working in Austria for about 9 years now. I work here as a medical doctor, after some years in hospitals I decided that was not the setting for me and am now working with people with an alcohol addiction.

I am currently on a gap year until March 2023 and am very looking forward to make it an adventure, feel like I need the break to rediscover and explore. I was about to do it three years ago but then I decided to accept my last job, now I really hope expecially to be able to work with animals and in nature.

Besides work, I enjoy making music and playing concerts with my band (local indie-folk band here in Vienna), producing electronic music and DJing, playing videogames, exploring nature, cooking (especially making Neapolitan pizza, so crazy about it that I bought my own pizza oven :P ).

Although I might have defined myself as shy when growing up, I think many people would describe me as the opposite, once they get to know me. I really value straightforward, honest and authentic connections.

I am very looking forward to the experiences that I'll hopefully manage to make through workaway.

I stayed one week at Bill's, teaching his students. The lessons were really fun, all the students (aged from 5 to 45) were really nice, at different levels of English. In my case I basically did one on one conversations (live or online) on various topics, depending on the students' level, in some cases teaching vocabulary regarding that one topic… read more

I spent a month at Sharon's sanctuary and I totally loved my time there. I was dreaming of having such a close experience with animals since years now, every time I visited a zoo I wondered if that would have ever been possible. It was!

Emilio was without doubt a big help to our team! He's a very positive character, who doesn't mind the given tasks and is not affraid to work in all kind of fields.
