Description

I am a girl who loves to travel, i am friendly, curious, hard working and adaptable person.I love discover new cultures and learn new things.I am a little bit shy at the first but i open up very quickly.

I spent the last three years in Australia on working holiday visa, visiting from Italy.I'm planning to visit Canada on working holiday visa as well from September.
During my permanence in Australia i had the opportunity to do several volunteer jobs from work in a yoga retreat, homestay, hostels to work with animals in different farms.They were very good experiences for me and would like to have more of them.

I have many hobbies and sometimes i feel that there are not enough hours in a day to do everything i want. I like exploring nature and working with animals, especially dogs.I love reading and drawing.Another great passion of mine is watching movies, tv series and swimming.As i said not enough time in a day!

I had mainly an artistic education, from high school until the following years.To support myself in Italy i worked as a worker in a food processing factory.I am used to heavy work, fast environment and worked on quality check developed my eye for details.As a dog educator i used my knowledge to work as dog sitter and carry on one of my passion.I hope Canada will give me the opportunity to make new experiences and learn new things.I put a lot of effort into whatever task is entrusted to me, i just need chances to prove it. Looking forward to what workaway opportunities will bring.
