Description
My name is Larisa and I left Argentina, my homecountry, about 5 years ago.
I lived in Italy and the UK, where I'm based now.
In the past, Workaway was of great help since it gave us both hosts and guests the opportunity to learn from the experience of exchanging. I like traveling and I've traveled as much as I could so far, though it has not been a way of living for me.
As I enjoy learning, I studied different things: cooking, photography, reflexology, Ayurvedic massage... and in any of thesss I can contribute gladly.
I like helping others and I don't mind getting my hands dirty when doing so.
I consider myself a free spirit person.
I like animals in general, dogs in particular. I enjoy cooking and I like to work with my hands. I like arts: drawing, drama, arts in general.
Years ago I changed into a more healthy way of life, started to practice yoga and studied Ayurveda in Argentina and in India. I love cooking (I already said that :) ) and enjoy combining recipes and colours in my dishes.
I think I have a good sense of humor and adaptability to different situations.
I volunteered in my country and abroad.
My mother tongue is Spanish and I'm proficient in English. Now I'm fluent in Italian, too. I'd love to learn German and French.
Please, feel free to ask about anything I haven't told about me in these words.
Hope to see you...!
