  • Description

    Italiano sotto!

    ENGLISH:

    Hi, I'm Dan, 27 year old electrician from Switzerland. I've been too focused on work and want to finally break out of the hamster wheel and go travelling for the first time in my life! I'm also looking to learn Italian, after taking a language course for 1.5 years now.

    In my free time I go swimming regularly, and when I find the time I like to go hiking or learn wood carving. I love cats and listening to music. I'm interested in psychology, ecological living, technology, politics.

    Moments I enjoy the most:
    - Taking a break when hiking, laying in the grass, falling asleep listening to the birds
    - Lifting heavy things
    - When manual labor goes right and everything fits, works, or actually looks good :D
    - Good music


    I would like to work in an environment far from cars or cities, close to nature, without the time pressure I'm used to from the construction business. Less phone, less stress, more nature!

    My skills focus mostly on construction, but I am willing to learn gardening, animals, etc.

    -I would love to do firewood processing :D splitting wood really gives me joy
    -I am able to and enjoy doing heavy work (within healthy limits, of course)
    -I have no experience with farm animals, but am open to learning. I like almost all animals.
    -I like dogs, but don't know how to handle them properly, and am a little afraid of them because I have been bit in the past.
    -I am not a great cook :D

    ITALIANO:

    Salve!
    Mi chiamo Dan, sono svizzero, ho 27 anni e faccio l'elettricista.
    Vorrei finalmente viaggare da solo per la prima volta nella mia vita. Sto imparando italiano fra 1 anno e mezzo, e vorrei migliorarlo con dei veri italiani :)

    Nel tempo libero nuoto regolarmente, e se ho tempo faccio il trekking o faccio un po di lavoro in legna. Mi piacciono i gatti e la musica. Mi interessa la psicologia, la vita ecologica, la tecnologia, la politica.

    Vorrei lavorare nella natura, lontano delle macchine e delle città, senza fretta. Meno cellulare, meno stress, più di natura! :)

    Le mie competenze si concentrano principalmente sull'edilizia, ma sono disposto a imparare il giardinaggio, gli animali, ecc.

    -Mi piacerebbe tanto lavorare la legna da ardere :D spaccare la legna ecc mi dà gioia
    -Posso fare lavoro duro, mi piace, (entro limiti salutari, ovviamente)
    -Non ho esperienza con gli animali da fattoria, ma sono aperto all'apprendimento. Mi piacciono quasi tutti gli animali.
    -mi piacciono i cani, ma non ho molto esperienza con loro. Ho un po di paura, perche sono stato morso in passato.
    -non so bene cucinare :D

    Questa descrizione è stata fatta con un po d'aiuto di google traduttore :)
