    Description

    Hello! My name is Antonella.
    I'm Antonella. I'm 35 years old. I'm very fond of self development, psychology, spirituality and esoterism.
    I'm a psychologist, counselor and meditation coach. Also I'm attending Psychotherapy school in "brief therapy and Hypnosis."
    I like travelling and making experience abroad. I love staying close to nature. I love meet new interesting people, from several cultures, know different way to live and thinking.
    I've hade also experiences as workawayer

    At the moment I live in Fiumefreddo di Sicilia with my boyfriend.
    Fiumefreddo di Sicilia is a small seatown at the feet of mount Etna, close to the sea ( about 2,5 kilometres) and it is renowned for its beautiful beach and the crystal clear sea of “Marina of Cottone” ( which has received for the past 6 years the blue flag award).

    Fiumefreddo di Sicilia is a small seatown at the feet of mount Etna, close to the sea ( about 2,5 kilometres) and it is renowned for its beautiful beach and the crystal clear sea of “Marina of Cottone” ( which has received for the past 6 years the blue flag award). At about 2 km from my place Fiumefreddo's River which is a Unique natural reserve where papyrus plants still flourish.

    In the beach, near the house, there is a sort of little community of friends. We often cook and eat togheter. It's open to everybody that want to share. Here It' s easy meet people and new friends and get a coffe with someone. You can get to know new people from Italy and also other travellers.

    You can explore by bicycle the green area around ( with lemon and orange threes, the beaches, the rivers...). The weather is often sunny and hot.

    The house is few minutes from Taormina and 1 kilometre from the train station, you can easily move to the other cities ( Catania, Siracusa, Taormina, Messina..)

    I often organize, with another host, a day for visiting Etna with the workawayers

    Help

    I welcome help to improve English and something help with house chores.
    I'm studing for B2 exam ( upper -intermediate level) and I need help for this level.

    I like reading psychological megazine and articles about mindfulness in english.
    It would be perfect if you are a teacher or you like teaching and speaking in English.

    It's would be better if you're friendly and flexible.
    During a week, for 2-3 days ( often on Wedsdayand and on Thurday) I'm all the day at my psychologist's studio.
    My working hours are flexible and sometimes there could be change

    At the moment the job isn't heavy ( two hours for day) and so I provide an indipendent and nice accomodation but not also the food. The food is on your own.
    I would like at least 2 hours of help per day. One day per week could be dedicated to house chores.

    Digital nomads are welcome. I think the accomodation is ideal. The space is comfortable also for working but you have to provide the connection.
