Description

Hello beautiful souls,
I'm Gabriela a traveler. I grew up in Italy, but for many years now my home has been the world. I traveled around the world like Thaildand, Messico; Greece, Costa Rica and most of Europe. I love traveling with myself and exploring a news cultures. I am a curious person with a highly motivated, with a positive attitude. I'm open minded, willing to learn new things, I am driven and enthusiastic.

I currently live in the Canary Islands and work in a surf school taking care of some social projects such as beach cleaning, or volunteer courses in adapted surfing. I also organize courses for children. I graduated as a teacher of children aged 0-6 and older children with disabilities.
Years ago I worked in a nursery in London and for a few years in Italy as a primary school teacher. I consider myself an enthusiastic, caring, patient, responsible, and energetic person but above all sweet.

Last year I did the workaway experience in various hostels at Costa Rica, Panama and Nicaragua. It was an incredible experience. I had the opportunity to work like a receptionist and with customers. I consider myself a good communicator, solution-oriented and open-minded. I also have a great passion for art and photography. I like to paint, take a photos and edit video. Furthermore, for my current surf school I work as a content creator, taking care of the creation of advertising through Canva and I take care of social pages like Instagram and Facebook.

I like discovering new cultures and their traditions, especially culinary ones, I like cooking and exchanging cooking tips
