Beschreibung
Hello!
My name is Alessandra and I am a 39 year-old Italian girl. I was born in Sardinia, a beautiful Island in the Mediterranean sea where the sun shines most part of the year. Since 2009 I 've been living in the North of Italy, near Lake Garda where the weather is not exactly like in Sardinia , but the sun still shines within me every day. I’ve always been fascinated by the English culture and I love the English language , which I'm trying to improve as much as I can! This is one of the reasons why I 've decided to have workaway experiences, but above all because I would love to meet wonderful people from different countries and widen my knowledges of the world.
I am planning to move to Portugal soon for a while and I would like to learn Portuguese and Spanish as well. I find that having the ability to communicate effectively with people of different cultures , backgrounds and habits can open your mind.
My friends describe me as a cheerful and outgoing person. I like simple and genuine things in life. I approve of authentic and straightforward people. I like being surrounded by people who are able to share positive vibes and always find a reason to smile!
I am a really energetic person, I'm keen on sports and in my free time I gladly go running, cycling and to the swimming pool for a nice hydrobike lesson sometimes. But I also need to “train” my mind reading a good book and I like watching movies and tv series or just walk along the lake when I want to relax . I am an imaginative and creative person ; I think that dreams are important in life because they give it meaning; we should follow our passions , do whatever makes us feel happy , because regrets are terrible!
And in the last couple of years, I ‘ve made this concept become my life motto, together with” live life to the fullest, be a good soul and share your life with likeminded people”
If you are looking for a trustworthy and willing workawayer you've found one! I would be pleased to offer my help and I will do my best not to disappoint you! :D There might be some things that I can't do but I learn quickly!
Hope to hear from you soon!

Bye

Was könntest du arbeiten?
I love animals and the peace that nature can transmit.
I would love to live in a place surrounded by nature

I am not afraid of working hard and where there aren't abilities there is will to learn!
I am very energetic and flexible person

I love children; I am quite good at dealing with them, but I would rather help with kids from 6 years of age upwards : I am patient, I like playing with them ...and usually have much fun!! You can learn a lot from them and they give you a different perspective of the world.

I worked as a beauty consultant for several years in a shop where I was in charge, together with another colleague; the shop was located in a tourist area and I really enjoyed the experience, thanks to which, I could take part in international fairs in Milan and Bologna every year and it was an important and interesting opportunity for me to meet people from all over the world and interact with them.

I worked in a renowned Thermal centre and Spa by the lake the last 3 years and a half , where I used to sell beauty products and provide visitors with the information they needed about the centre.

I have a good level of English and I can understand a bit German, French and Spanish

Vom Workawayer (Alessandra) für Host für (Ukrainian helpers welcome in ...)

It is difficult to put into words the magic of this experience but I’ll try.
It was only yesterday that I had to say goodbye to the family and I already miss them very much! They have the power to get into your heart, they are really special people and I’ve been very lucky to live my first workaway experience with them .
My adventure started on… read more 3rd September and when I arrived in Burnsall it was evening and it was raining. I was tired and a bit stun from the day spent travelling. I was a bit worried too, because It was the first time for me travelling on my own to a foreign country. But since my first chat with Richard in his car, when he kindly came to pick me up at the airport and when i had my first tea with Maurice and Christine as I arrived at their cozy hause I noticed immediately that there was something special in those people , they made me feel comfortable and welcome and I felt better straight away. After the first morning of work any concern I had had was replaced by a feeling of great joy and excitement, thinking of myself completely immerse in the English culture for a month with such lovely people!: a dream that I had always had since I was a teenager.
I enjoyed the daily duties that were easy and never heavy or boring . I was part of a team in a relaxing environment and Richard and any other member of the family were always available to give me clear explanations about the job and they were always kind, smiling and encouraging.
Just a few hours of "work" in the morning and then in the afternoon there was plenty of time to explore the area. And about this place there would be a lot to say! From the first day until the last one I couldn't help feeling astonished by the remarkable beauty of the landscapes! Starting with Burnsall that is a beautiful and picturesque village; the B&B is located close to the river Wharfe that you can see from the window of your cozy room ! In the morning when I woke up I couldn't hear anything else but the river and the bird's tweet! A paradise! I won't never forget the time spent running, strolling by the river or walking for miles, breathing pure air surrounded by beautiful scenaries, overwhelmed by a feeling of freedom and closeness to the unspoilt nature of the Yorkshire Dales. During my free days I visited lots of smashing places ( such as Skipton,Haworth, Ilkley, Saltaire, Pateley Bridge, Leeds...) and I have a nice memories of each of my trips and everywhere I’ve been to I found very friendly and nice people. I must thank Richard for helping me plan my trips, for giving me helpful advice on the places that were worth to visit and for his detailed maps. He and his family, even his lovely sister Wendy, offered me lots of lifts to the places I wanted to visit or they helped me reach them easily. Richard even took me for a ride several times to see with my ( always amazed ) eyes some breath-taking sceneries. I tried to take some pictures of them but none of those photoes gets the real idea of the magnificence and beauty of nature and of the feeling of peace that it can transmit. I visited very pretty and fascinating villages,towns and cities as well … Actually I took more than 1200 pictures! XD yes I found it hard not to use my camera! But As I told Richard, the best pictures are stuck in my mind and above all in my heart <3
But to tell the truth, if the time spent in Burnsall was really special it was thanks to the wonderful people that hosted me! I felt a member of this lovely family since my first days in the B&B. Christine is such a sweet and kind woman !She has always been very thoughtful to me! I loved our chats , we often ended up talking about food and thanks to her I learnt lots of her fantastic recipes and culinary secrets! Oh yes, her cooking was always delicious and her puddings…the best I’ve ever tried! I needed to put on some weight when I arrived and I must say that with Christie it has been literally …”a piece of cake”! XD Maurice is a nice man, full of energy, always active! I had lots of fun with him, above all when I tried to” steal his job”in the kitchen! I still laugh thinking about our fights for doing the washing up ! He is a really nice and witty man, I loved his jokes! Edward is avery good guy, always smiling, always joking and always kind to me  And what about Wendy and her family! I have only nice words for them too! I found it special our Sunday Yorkshire pudding all together and it was very tasty and the apple pie was delicious! No wonder, like mother , like daughter! :D
And last but NOT least Richard , the “boss”! He is a very intelligent and interesting person ; I won’t forget our enjoyable conversations about anything ! He is nice and funny and he has a heart of gold. He helped me a lot with my English! Working with him in the morning was relaxing and enjoyble because he was always kind, he never made me feel as I was really working, I never felt under pressure. He has been the best “boss” anyone could ask for! I ‘ve enjoyed so much the time spent walling at the field and also in the farm, riding the quod bike to check the sheep and finding out a lot about them! I had no Idea that there were so many breeds of sheep and of cows as well! XD I also loved watching documentaries with Richard and of course our Italian lessons! Keep on studying boss that I’m going to ask you some questions next time when you come to visit! Capito? Jokes aside, :D I’m sure this is going to be the start of an everlasting friendship! I will always feel grateful to him for giving me the chance to live this unforgettable experience and to fulfil my dream!And now I know that reality, sometimes, it ‘s even better than imagination!

The family are my English family now, they ‘ll occupy a special place in my heart forever and NOWT won’t change this! I really hope to see them again before too long!

Hey up workawayer from all over the world! It is clear that I really recommend going to Burnsall! :)
