  • Description

    Hello! My name is Marina, I'm a 30-year-old Italian girl, always ready for a new adventure!

    I studied Art, 3D Animation, and Sound Design, and every six months I seem to add a new hobby to the list!

    Over the past five years, I've worked in many different fields: as a waiter in both fancy and not-so-fancy restaurants, an art teacher, a graphic designer, a freelance illustrator for clients from all over the world, and I've done many different jobs thanks to Workaway.

    I also lived abroad in America for 3 month and in Spain for 2 years.

    I'd love to make art my full-time career, but for now, life seems to have other plans.

    I work hard throughout the year (from September to June) so that when summer arrives, I can pack my backpack and discover a new corner of the world.

    Every day I try to become a more open-minded person.

    I consider myself an extrovert. I'm reliable, adaptable, and genuinely curious about people and different ways of living. I love meeting new people, sharing stories, learning from others, creating meaningful connections wherever I go, and especially learning new languages!

    I've travelled a lot with Workaway—ask me about my experiences! :)

    It's difficult to choose my favorite hobbies because I'm interested in so many things. I love reading (whether it's an amazing book or a terrible one that I can complain about with friends afterward!), drawing, hiking, running, playing sports, juggling, painting, tattooing (yes, I guess it counts as a hobby if you're tattooing your friends and family!), and simply lying on the grass watching the clouds go by.

    I'm also passionate—like, *really* passionate—about music. I love playing instruments whenever I can, and spending time making music is one of the things that makes me happiest. I have seven guitars, one bass, two pianos, two drum kits, and a cajón. Anything that can make a sound has always fascinated me.

    I enjoy being active too. Basketball and boxing are two of my favorite sports, but I also love snowboarding and windsurfing. I'm always excited to learn new outdoor activities whenever I have the chance!

    More than anything else, I love playing chess with my little brother, the person I admire and love the most.

    Thank you for taking the time to read my profile!

    I'd be more than happy to help you with your projects, share my skills, and learn from you as well. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions.

    I hope to meet you soon! :)
