Description
hello guys, my name is Doriana, I am an artist (painting)
I decided to update my profile because a few things have changed), I moved to this big house near the sea. So there was a big move and a lot of things to sort out. The house has a garden that is not so big but with many fruit trees and three olive trees that will be harvested in October. The field is a great joy for me and a new experience even if I don't know exactly where to start! I have many projects because I would like to build play spaces including my painting space. I need help specifically for the garden and my private home. Help and good ideas are welcome! I have been on this portal for a few years and I have had wonderful experiences with many workaways. I am interested in dynamic, independent people who have knowledge of construction and gardening. I would also like help with my artistic profile on social media. Unfortunately, my English is not improving and is very basic, so I would prefer a little knowledge of the Italian language
I live alone, my plan is to work in the summer and travel a few months in the winter and take care of the house projects preferably in your company.
I would like to point out that Workaway does not deal with guests or tourist reception, thank you.
Buongiorno ragazzi, sto cercando aiuto per il mese di settembre perchè dovrò allestire una mia esposizione personale al centro di Noto. Mi piacerebbe qualcuno che si intende di comunicazione, video e foto. mese è un mese stupendo sia in città che al mare. Grazie !!

ciao ragazzi, mi chiamo Doriana, sono un artista (pittura)
ho deciso di aggiornare il mio profilo perchè un po' di cose sono cambiate), mi sono trasferita in questa grande casa vicino al mare. è avvenuto quindi un grande trasloco e tante cose da sistemare. la casa ha un giardino non tanto grande ma con molti alberi di frutta e tre alberi di olivo che a ottobre andranno raccolti. Il campo per me è una grande gioia e una nuova esperienza anche se non so bene da che parte cominciare! ho molti progetti perchè mi piacerebbe costruire spazi ludici tra cui il mio spazio per dipingere. L'aiuto mi serve specificatamente per il giardino e la mia casa privata. L'aiuto e le buone idee sono ben accolti! Sono su questo portale da qualche anno e ho avuto esperienze bellissime con molti workaway. Mi interessano persone dinamiche, indipendenti e che abbiano conoscenza su costruzione e giardino. Mi piacerebbe anche un aiuto per il mio profilo artistico sui social, il mio profilo instagram è dorianapagani. purtroppo il mio inglese non migliora ed è molto basico, preferirei quindi un po' di conoscenza della lingua italiana
abito da sola, il mio progetto è di lavorare l'estate e di viaggiare qualche mese d'inverno e di occuparmi dei progetti della casa preferibilmente in vostra compagnia.
SPECIFICO CHE I WORKAWAY NON SI OCCUPANO DI OSPITI E RICEZIONE TURISTICA, GRAZIE.

In January I began a workaway expecting a calm environment to spend the winter working online, exercising and enjoying the sun. The host and I agreed to a long-term stay from January to April starting with a one-month trial. Things quickly went downhill and after 18 days I left the property feeling frustrated and… read more

I had beautiful two weeks with Doriana. From the first second on when she picked me up at the bus station in Noto I had to smile. She is a very kind, funny and interesting person even though my Italian wasn't really good and her English either. Even though the communication was still good and we could understand each other. I… read more

We had a gap in our schedule and Doriana accepted us for just 5 days and saved our week here in Sicily.
Every second in her company was a joy and we tried to do as much as possible to help her in her garden in this short period of time. We had long conversations at the table and many exchanges… read more
She welcomed me from the beginning with a good mood and always made me feel comfortable and well in her presence.
