Description

Hello! I am Laura, a 28-year-old girl from Italy. It is my first time on Workaway! I decided to join in order to gain new skills and make new connections around the world.

I am a biologist with a deep love for nature and the ocean. I worked for a few years as an outdoor guide in Italy and in the Azores. During this time I met people from all over the world. It was a tiring yet exciting job, but right now I am looking for a different path in my career. Hopefully, this experience will help me discover a new interest.

In my free time I enjoy hiking, kayaking, or simply going for long walks and spending time outdoors. I love discovering new cultures and meet new people. I enjoy cooking, sharing meals with others, and learning new recipes along the way. I also love working with animals, especially wildlife, and taking care of them.
Right now my dream is to visit mainland Portugal, get my first scuba diving certificate, and maybe learn a new language.
