Discovering Sicily for a couple of months from March 2023.
Description
I'm from in Hamburg, Germany and I am discovering Sicily for a couple of months from March 2023. I studied organizational development and after founding an NGO in 2015 I worked with refugees, homeless people and kids with focus on sustainability and education. I just quit my job a couple of months ago and started to travel, try to just be in the moment, learn new things, see beautiful places and meet good people. I already have some workaway experience and I look forward to work physically, go hiking, explore Sicila and improve my Italian!

I had a wonderful experience staying with Christin & Luca for 3 weeks at their place with that amazing view on Etna! I mostly cared about the two lambs Greta and Maya who just arrived at the farm and so I had to feed them a couple of times a day and to clean the stable.

He is also a good cook and… read more
