Description
Hi! I'm Gianluca!
I am 24 years old and I recently graduated in Physics. Right now I have six month ahead of me that I want to fill with travels and new experiences.
As I have always lived in a city, I would love to spend some time helping in a farm or in naturalistic projects toghether with other volunteers, while exploring exotic places. However I still don't have a concrete plan, so I am open to everything.
During my stay, I hope to support my hosts' projects to the best of my abilities :)
I am new here in Workaway, but I already volunteered in Costa Rica three years ago, monitoring sea turtles and treating the nests. It was a fantastic experience, and I hope that many others like that one will start from this site!

More details about your skills
I consider myself a hard worker.
If there is some objective ahead of me, I will do anything to achieve it!
This has always been one of my mantra, and it made me a very versatile and adaptable person.
In particular my abilities range from highly specific programming skills (I know python, c, c++), which come from my main job (Physics), and more manual and practical skills, which mostly come from my hobbies.
Since I was a child I loved to work with wood, creating little planes and swords.
With time I learned some basic craftmanship, and messed around with electrical circuits.
I haven't a real experience with gardening labor, but I would like to learn something about it. I do not refuse hard physical work when it is necessary. In Costa Rica I helped rebuilding a path into the jungle after a storm had destroyed it.
I also have a 10 years experience in working with 3D modeling and digital graphics.

There is so much to say...
Before the departure, I was worried about the whole Workaway thing because I had never done something like that before, and I didn't know what to expect. However, as soon as I arrived, both Claire and Michiel were very welcoming, and two days… read more
