Description
Hey there :)

Thanks for stopping by my profile. I’m Clarissa, a 27-year-old Italian globetrotter. I've been on the move for the past 10 years volunteering, studying, working, and getting to know cultures from all over the world.

One of my absolute favorite things is sitting down with a cup of tea and sharing stories (there must be some English blood in me). I’m happy to be outdoors and I’m always picking up new hobbies. Jack of all trades, master of none, they say!

I’m easy-going and enjoy spending time with people, but I also appreciate my quiet moments alone. I try to lead with empathy and make people around me feel safe and at ease.

I'm quintessentially Italian, so I show love by cooking for people. You won't starve if I'm around!

:D

In my past Workaway experiences (England, Scotland, and Ireland), I helped with:
- gardening
- cleaning & tidying up
- childcare

- wine harvesting ( in Italy)

I’m a bit of a jolly — as long as someone’s willing to teach, willing to learn.

I’m always happy to cook dishes from my Italian traditions, as well as recipes I’ve picked up on the road during my travels. I love making a good Uzbek plov or an Indonesian rice and I do have a soft spot for soups!

I stayed at Ølaug's and Bjorn's place for 2 weeks in April, and it's been 2 incredible weeks! You will stay in a lovely wooden cottage a few minutes away from the house where they live, with amazing views of the small lake that you can easily reach on foot.

The work was not hard at all: Ølaug will give you tasks to do, and sometimes you'll work… read more

I can’t even begin to describe how amazing this family is. They live in a lovely house with a garden (and a stream!) that overlooks the bay, but you’re going to have your own flat (crazy, right?!). The work is not hard nor tiring. During my stay I painted the outside walls of the house and the fence, ironed a bit on rainy days and spent time with… read more

Where to begin! Nicola and Tom are the kindest and most welcoming people you’ll find in Cotswolds. Working with them is a pleasure, they always explain everything clearly and with patience and thank you for what you’re doing. Our tasks were varied, they included weeding, cleaning the greenhouse, watering plants, feeding the girlsss (the… read more
