Hi! My name is Jackie. I live in Brooklyn, NY, and have been working as a server for the past year since I graduated college. I am really excited about traveling for a little bit in the upcoming year and would love the opportunity to learn about a new culture and experience life somewhere other than the United States. I am super excited to try new food, walk around a new city, and meet new people!

Was könntest du arbeiten?
I majored in sociology in college with a focus on education and have experience working with kids both as a nanny and a tutor. I also love cooking and food (although I am vegetarian) and would love to cook for you as well as learn recipes from you! As I currently work in the food service industry, I am very familiar with service, hospitality, as well as cleaning. I am very capable, responsible, hard-working, and organized, and would be super interested in learning new skills as well!

vom Host (Help around the house in the ...) für Workawayer (Jacqueline)

It’s been a great pleasure having Jackie with us. I think we could not have a better Workawayer: Jackie is reliable, always ready to help and easy learning. She is at the same time not intrusive in the house and willing to have a conversation and enjoy being together in a relaxed and charming way. She also adapts easily to any situation,… read more

Vom Workawayer (Jacqueline) für Host (Help around the house in the ...)

I stayed with Silvia, Paolo, Linda, and Michele in Ancona for around a month. I feel so lucky to have met them and to have had such an incredible experience for my first workaway and first-time solo traveling. The family was extremely welcoming and made me feel very safe and comfortable from the beginning.

The living accommodations were very… read more comfortable - I had my own room and bathroom which were in a separate downstairs area of the house so it felt like I had a lot of space and privacy. The house itself was lovely and clean. The house was on a property next to Silvia’s parents' house in the countryside. I spent many hours walking around and exploring the areas surrounding their house. The city center of Ancona was around a 30-minute walk from their house (there are some steep hills but very doable in my opinion). The city of Ancona was small but fun to explore and the surrounding hills and sea were stunning!

The work was mainly gardening and some chores in the house - usually Silvia would text me in the morning or tell me the night before a few tasks she wanted me to complete for the day. They have a beautiful garden, so often I helped to fertilize the plants, pull the weeds, or harvest, wash, and prep some vegetables. Sometimes Silvia would ask me to help cook one part of lunch or dinner, such as preparing cabbage from the garden, or occasionally to vacuum or do other random household tasks. Generally, the work was never more than a couple hours a day. Silvia and Paolo both speak English well, but they wanted me there to help them improve their English as well as their kids through having conversations with them at dinner and throughout the day. They also gave me the flexibility to take time off from work and to travel - I was able to spend a night in Bologna and could have travelled more although I was having so much fun at the house I didn’t want to leave :)

Silvia and Paolo went above and beyond to make me feel comfortable and included at all times. On the weekdays they were at work a lot of the day (sometimes they would come home for lunch), but we would always have dinner together and spend time together in the evenings. On the weekends I went along with them as they spent time with their friends, went out to dinner, hiked, and walked on the beach - they made an extra effort to show me around Ancona and the surrounding areas. It was always super fun to spend time with the family; they were warm and generous.

Exchanging recipes and learning about Italian food/cooking and culture were some of my favorite memories with the family. They are incredible cooks!! They were extremely accommodating to me being vegetarian, which I really appreciated.

Because they are in a somewhat chill location, I would say this workaway would be a perfect experience for someone who loves walking around, exploring by themselves, cooking, eating, reading, relaxing, or maybe has some part-time remote work - and not the best for someone looking to meet a lot of young people or party. I loved every second I spent with Silvia and Paolo and can not recommend staying with them enough! Please feel free to contact me if you want any more information!
