--- WE ARE ALWAYS AVAILABLE FOR LAST MINUTE WORKAWAYS ---
We are a couple in our 20ties/30ties.
We live in Milan city (Italy) and we are looking forward to spend time in nature.
Edoardo - 24: I'm a handy person, I love being active and explore nature. I speak 3 languages fluently. I'm sometimes introverted and quiet.
Emma - 31: I grew up in the countryside and have a passion for linguistics. After working as a copywriter, I’m now eager to learn everything I can about farming and gardening—this is the path I truly want to follow.
We both have lived abroad and we are very familiar with living in a rural environment.

More details about your skills
We recently had an experience in a BnB in Lapland where we helped with many different things for more than a month: renovation works, taking care of farm animals (reindeers, goats, sheep, etc.), preparing wood sauna for guests, helping in the restaurant and so on.
We also had an experience helping in a farmhouse: cutting and chopping wood for the next winters, taking care of horses, building and repairing items (electric fence, woodshed, traditional Finnish fences, bird houses, etc.)
Something about each one of us:
Edoardo - I have worked in construction, in a fish market and in restaurants/bars, as a cleaner in a gym, organized flyering and other odd jobs. I also have experience in the international humanitarian field. I enjoy cooking, I can take care of animals, I have experience in painting walls, laying wooden floors, doing small masonry works, demolitions, moving, woodcarving and crafting. I know how to use tools as angle grinders, planers, etc.. In my free time I love helping my friends getting in shape as their personal trainer.
Certificates:

Red Cross first aid certificate
CPR and defibrillator use (also pediatric)
HEAT (Hostile Environment Awareness Training)
I practiced different kind of sports, at different levels: football, rugby, boxe, volleyball, pingpong, chess, running, climbing, swimming.
Emma - I've been working as a copywriter for years, but now I want to learn everything I can about farming and gardening, because this is the path I truly want to follow. I grew up in the countryside so I have lots of experience with pets and some experience with farm animals (mainly hens, chickens, geese and ducks). I can help in the house: cleaning, cooking, gardening, etc.. I can help with technology, communication and video editing. I have some experience in hospitality. I am a handy person so I'm happy to help with with maintenance and manual labor.
