Description

Hi there:) I'm Elena and I live in Trento, a beautiful city in the very north of Italy surrounded by the mountains. I've travelled in Portugal with Workaway in 2016 and 2023 and I loved it; now I'm looking for a new exciting opportunity anywhere in Europe, where I could improve my English and learn new skills!

I'm 30y old and I'm a high school teacher - I teach Marketing, Photography and Visual Merch. I've a BA degree in Fine Arts ( Photography ), and I've worked as well as freelance graphic designer and social media manager, so I could definitely help you with that! I'm passionate about photography and art, and I very much enjoy hiking, camping and spending time outdoors.

I'm friendly and reliable, I'm used to work with kids and I had the chance to work in very different environments over the years: thanks to that I am an open-minded person, open to listen and learn new things; I am very flexible and easy adaptable. I'm also independent and I enjoy spending time by myself, so you don't need to worry about entertaining me :)

I lived and worked in central London for few years ( I was a visual merchandiser for a big retail company) so I speak a quite good English, but I'd be very happy to practice and improve it ( or to learn new languages! )

I'm not looking for anything specific, I would love to discover new places and meet nice people.. and of course get my hands dirty, helping with whatever you may need :) I like to spend time with kids, pets, animals and I really enjoy being in contact with nature and spending time outdoors. Can't wait to meet you and feel free to ask me anything!

More details about your skills

I'm working as a teacher so of course I can help you with kids (helping with homework or planning activities for large groups), I have pets so I know how to take care of them (and would love to!) - I also can help with social media, photography and graphic design.
Like most Italians I enjoy to cook.. so I'd love to cook for you ( and I'm quite good with italian food and baking cakes )
I don't have particular skills about gardening ( but I've done lots of that in my previous workaways, so I can manage ) or renovating works but I'm happy to learn and help wherever I can!
