Description

Hi! My name is Gloria, I’m 33 years old and I come from Pordenone, Italy.

I consider myself a sunny, empathetic, creative, and organized person. Throughout my life, I’ve gained a variety of practical experiences thanks to my family and the environment I grew up in: I have cared for animals (especially pets), assisted elderly people, done babysitting, cooked for my family, and taken care of household chores.

I would love to offer my help with animal care and looking after the surrounding environment, in projects that allow me to live close to nature, people, and the local culture.

I have never done an experience like this before, but I truly believe that what matters most is motivation, not age or experience.

Recently, I have become interested in Buddhist culture, and I’m eager to deepen my understanding and experience it in a concrete way — perhaps through a Workaway opportunity that allows me to learn mindfulness, meditation practices, and a simpler, more harmonious way of living with the environment.

I feel a strong need to reconnect with myself through travel, shared work, and human exchange.

I would like to be involved in daily activities while also having some independence to explore and experience the culture of the host country.

I speak Italian and have a basic knowledge of English, but I’m very motivated to improve it through real-world experience.

I’m going through a moment in my life where I don’t have many answers, only many questions. And to start finding those answers, I’ve decided to leave.

The question that guides me the most right now is:
"Ten years from now, which decision will I regret the least?"

I know the answer is: not staying still. Not stopping the search. Not giving up the journey.
