Description
I am a very social person who is very easy to get along with and will try my best to integrate into any new situation with a real enthusiasm to learn new skills. I am new to workaway, but not at all to the concept!
I have a real passion for languages, gardening and music. My main spoken languages are English and French and I have an intermediate level of Portuguese and Italian. I am always open to new music so share with me whatever makes you tick and I will try and find something of mine that you might like!
Let me cook for you, I love sharing meals with new or old friends!

Gabriella was very fun to have around. responsible, hard working and intelligent, always looking for a way to help.
