Description

Hi, my name is Claudette. I'm on a big adventure: I've just quit my job at my own publishing house after more than 20 years. I'm open to all new adventures and to discover life further. For now I'd like to find a nice place to work and practice my Italian and the other languages I've learned but which i do not always have the possibility to use. I'd love to hear about your culture, your way of life and your fascinating stories. I'd also like to share recipes and cook for or with you.

I also love traveling, you can find me on couchsurfing as well: https://www.couchsurfing.com/people/claudette-halkes/references

I love cooking, connecting with people and I'm always up for a deep conversation. I have a passion for languages. I like to work hard, so I am ready for workaway!
