Description

Hi there! I'm Laura, Italian, 36 years old. Travelling to me is freedom and excitement. What I love about it is the energy that spreads around when I set off into the unknown, which includes situations, places and people.

I love nature but also exploring cities, dancing, going to concerts and parties, walking, trekking, reading... and in general trying new experiences and meeting new people. I am also very interested in spirituality, self development and self growth.
I'm very positive, open-minded and adaptable.

I'm graduated in Interpreting and Translation for English and Spanish (which I can speak and write fluently) and I get by with French.
I would like to learn more about permaculture/biodynamic agriculture, grape harvest, pruning and ecovillage lifestyle. I would also love to work in the hospitality field, such as in hostels or B&B, since it's a job that I love, I've worked as receptionist for around 10 years. Also, it would be great to help in a yoga/holistic centre or an ecovillage.
In the past I did some Workaway experiences in Spain (living off-grid, building a wooden hen house, growing vegetables, cob building, cleaning, hen feeding and caring) and in Thailand (wall painting).

I have experience in customer service, hospitality, cleaning, vegetables growing, olive harvesting, English and Spanish teaching and translating and some knowledge of permaculture and basic building, wall painting and DIY.
