Description
Hi :) we are Silvia and Francesca from Rome looking for a workaway in Australia.
Silvia- I lived in England for two years and I’d love to keep improving my English while experiencing farm life and learning new practical skills.
I’m a calm person, enjoy working outdoors and I have good manual skills and some experience with sewing, assembling things. I’m happy to help with different tasks and I enjoy learning by doing, even when things are new to me.
I adapt easily, enjoy simple living and teamwork, and I always try to be respectful and reliable
Francesca- I lived and worked in the UK for a few years and I'm now looking for a
slower and more meaningful lifestyle including nature and animals.
I'm really sociable and and I’m happiest when I’m outdoors. I have a strong interest in animal care as I grew up around animals such as cats, guinea pigs, and fish, and I am used to daily care routines including feeding and cleaning. I also enjoy cooking and would be happy to contribute in the kitchen.
In my spare time I enjoy doing puzzles, working on miniature models and playing the guitar

More details about your skills
Silvia works reparing small leather items in her family business and Francesca works as an ice cream maker.
Francesca likes preparing balanced, nourishing meals using mostly Mediterranean ingredients and whole foods, and especially enjoyes baking (biscuits and carrot cake are favourites!). For her, cooking is a way to care for others and bring people together.
We both have experience working with children (and enjoy spending time with them). We're also happy to help out with house maintenance, such as cleaning and repair work.
