Descripción
Hi, we are Carmen and Giovanni, an Italian couple traveling around the world with workaway for about three years.
Carmen studied ancient languages and literature and then graduated in Cinema, Figurative Arts and Theatre. She acted in a theater company, studied classical dance for 10 years and now practices and teaches Power Yoga. She has a passion for photography, in fact she always carries her Nikon with her and in her free time she sings.
Giovanni studied visual arts, painting and sculpture techniques and interior design. He studied music, trumpet and piano and in his free time he likes to keep fit and play.
In 2018 we opened our cultural cocktailbar together in the center of Bologna and therefore we learned mixology art and how to become entrepreneurs. In the bar we held various artistic events including concerts, piano bars, art exhibitions and theater performances. After the pandemic we decided to sell and start the adventure with workaway. After three years we have learned many other things by traveling from Africa, Europe, the USA and Mexico, especially how to live an ecological life in full collaboration with the nature we love so much. Among our capabilities today we also have: Permaculture, revitalization of desert land with microorganisms, planting of edible and non-edible plants, care of domestic and farm animals, construction of structures both in classic mode and with ecological materials such as COB, renovation, set-up interior design, house sitting, babysitting, petsitting and much more. We love to eat well which is why we are excellent cooks. We like good company and having ever new cultural and idea exchanges. We are curious souls who always like to learn new things. We dedicate ourselves with care and attention to the work we do and we also like to take care of our mind and body by training periodically.
