    Hello beautiful souls 🌸

    Nice to meet you! I'm Gessica, 38 years old, from the peaceful countryside near Florence, Italy, where I was born and raised on a farm surrounded by nature, animals, and simplicity.

    Let me share a little about myself:
    I’m a warm-hearted, open-minded, and empathetic person with a deep passion for human connection, nature, and inner growth.

    For the past 20 years, I’ve been traveling the world, learning from every culture, every smile, and every challenge. Life has been my greatest teacher, and I carry its lessons with gratitude and humility.

    In the last few years, I’ve been especially devoted to humanitarian work—an experience that has touched me deeply. I spent four years volunteering with refugees at two different borders: the French–UK border in Calais and the French–Italian border. I helped with food distribution, basic needs, emotional support, and simply being there for people going through incredibly hard times.

    Later, I spent a year on a rescue boat in the Mediterranean Sea with an NGO, supporting missions to save lives and offer care to those fleeing conflict and poverty. That time changed me—it opened my heart even more and taught me what it really means to serve with humility and love.

    While I’ve also worked in hospitality, what truly gives me meaning is being of service. I believe in presence, listening, and the healing power of kindness.

    I love yoga, meditation, and being close to nature. These practices keep me grounded and remind me of the beauty in simplicity and connection.

    With love and light,
    Gessica ☀️

  • More details about your skills

    I bring with me years of experience in hospitality—reception, cleaning, and creating warm, welcoming spaces where people feel at home.

    I’m also happy to help with gardening, cooking, and light manual tasks. I enjoy contributing in a practical, hands-on way and being useful wherever I’m needed.

    Yoga and meditation are a big part of my life. They help me stay grounded and centered—qualities I find essential when living in community and working in service.

    Volunteering has shaped me deeply. I supported refugees for four years at the French–UK and French–Italian borders, offering presence, empathy, and active listening. Later, I joined a rescue NGO in the Mediterranean Sea, assisting missions to help those fleeing conflict and hardship.

    I love living in shared spaces and naturally contribute to harmony and positive energy. People often say I bring a peaceful presence and a reliable, respectful spirit.

    I'm particularly drawn to projects that involve caring for others—especially children—and contributing to safe, nurturing spaces that support growth, connection, and dignity.

    Above all, I’m adaptable, open-hearted, and always eager to learn, share, and offer my energy in meaningful ways.
