Description
Hi, My name is Mirko and I'm 22. I just finished my degree in biology and I'm in a sort of gap year. I really want to travel and get out of my comfort zone a bit, discover new places and cultures and meet new people. I love animals and nature and would love to have the chance to work with them and gain new skills in this field. I'm a little introverted but eager to try and learn new things and have some new experiences. Apart from biology, I also have a passion for cinema, I love music and reading, I'm interested in learning about history, astronomy, psychology, learning new languages, etc.

More details about your skills
I have a Biology degree and live in the outskirts of my own city, pretty close to nature. I can help with some gardening, taking care of plants etc since I own a garden myself. I can also take care of pets, cats and dogs at least, and I've also had to take care of chickens before. I can cook some stuff. I speak spanish and english fluently, which I can teach, and some italian. I can help with technology/computer stuff, since I know some programming and have been using computers basically all my life. I'm a fast learner, so all the things I can't do I'll put the effort to learn how to do. I've worked in a dog shelter before, cleaning and feeding over 100 dogs, helping socializing them, taking care of their health and managing the shelter's social media to promote the animals.

What else ...
I'm a little introverted so I might need some space to myself every now and then but I'm still friendly and kind and willing to help with whatever is needed.
I can't drive.
I'm not vegan/vegetarian, and religious in any way, but I'm pretty open minded.
I'm LGBT and thus also looking for open minded hosts as well.Some more information
