Description
We are Francesca and Beatrice, two friends of almost 60 years old. We are from the north of Italy.
Me, Beatrice I’m a retired teacher, Francesca is a mum of 3 grown up children who are now living their own life.
We have decided to take a sabbatical time in order to do, at last, something it has always been a dream for both of us: being in nature with lots of animals around and helping people with anything we can do.
We have been travelling in many countries for holiday and also worked abroad, however now we want to explore the world in a different way: living with local people and discover other country’s real life.
That's why we decided to join workaway.
We love animals and gardening, we are not experts, but we try to do all our best.
We also enjoy cooking and we can be a "pair of good hands" around the house (cleaning, doing laundry, tiding up).
If you would be interested we could also teach you a bit of Italian language or how to cook some italian dishes. Francesca can also make bread.
We are hard workers, flexible and we are willing to try anything.
Honesty, trustful, reliability and open-minded, are strong values for us.
We are able to work without constant supervision.
We are looking for a workaway experience in Spain starting from october.
We look forward to meeting you!
