Laura
I graduated in Social Services with a specialization in Methodology, Organization, and Assessment of Social Services.
In 2019, I started traveling alone and spent almost a year between Seville, Cádiz, and Vejer - El Palmar. During that time I made extensive use of Workaway, learned Spanish and had some incredible experiences.
In Seville I lived and worked in a cultural center, taking on a variety of tasks from painting walls to creating promotional videos. In Cádiz I worked in a hotel and later in a hostel as both a housekeeper and receptionist.
In July 2020 I returned to Italy and began working as a teacher, first in a kindergarten and later in a primary school with 9-year-old children. I absolutely loved teaching, especially working with older kids.
In 2023, I moved to Australia and have been there until now. During my time in Australia, I’ve had a variety of job experiences including farming (picking, paking, pruning, weeding, mowing, working with sheeps/cows etc) housekeeping, babysitting, managing a holoday house, working in bars/restaurants . I’ve also gained some experience in the construction field.
