Description
Hello, I am Ludo(Ludovica).
Italian, I have been living around a few corners in the last 10 years: Australia, New Zealand, Vietnam, Hawaii, Canada and Ireland. Did some gardening in Mexico last year.
Currently living in Edinburgh, Scotland.
I am a crafty person and I am interested in growing veggies organically(I worked on and off in organic farms in the UK for 3 years); looking after animals and learning a new language.
My english is fluent and I love a good chat-not very good at small talks tho.
I like a slow-paced and active life.
I do running, cycling, yoga and I'm a professional print-maker and potter.
I can teach watercolours too.
Looove cooking and I will make pizza and pasta for you.
I'm social but will need a good amount of solo time as well. And coffee.
I'd like a whatsapp video chat before agreeing over the stay, for both of us.
No allergies but I'm vegetarian.
