Description
Hello 😊
We are Silvana (25 y.o.) and Oriol (28 y.o.), a couple from Barcelona, Spain.
We love traveling and living abroad, because you can learn so much about different cultures and countries, which is good for improving as a human being. We are an affectionate friendly couple, very reliable, responsible and very hard workers.
Oriol has a degree of History. His mother tongues are Catalan and Spanish. He speaks English perfectly and he also has basic knowledge of Portuguese. He has lived in different countries, Lithuania, Scotland, Portugal and Germany, where he was studying, working or volunteering. This gave him the opportunity to do different jobs and be very flexible. He is a calm person, who can listen and help people with a positive energy.
Silvana is a preschool teacher. Her mother tongues are Catalan and Spanish, but she also has a very good level of English. She's a very passionate and energic person who loves dancing, and she’s enthusiastic about any kind of sport. She enjoys watching movies, listening to music and eating good fresh and healthy food. She really likes traveling and discovering new places and people she can connect with and learn new things.
Together we have been in Canada for 1 year, working hard as housekeepers and servers. Now we are in Japan managing few chalets during the winter season in Hakuba, discovering the area, his culture and people.

More details about your skills
Silvana’s skills: I have worked in a hospital, in the area of cleaning, during the pandemic. That means that I have worked under a lot of pression and very fast. During these two years in the hospital, I had the opportunity to improve these abilities. Also, I am a very patience and creative person, this helped me with my 4 years of nanny and with my job as a preschool teacher, job that I did for 5 months. I pay a lot of attention to small details, and I like to keep my environment nice, clean and organize. I try to behave from the empathy and the compromise with other people and with my job. All the jobs related with nature, arts or handmade things are very interesting for me.
Oriol’s skills: I have the ability to learn a different job or work quite fast. During my life I have worked as waiter, in a wine company, manager of a restaurant, delivering packages, kitchen porter, gardener and volunteer in a hostel, where I was working as receptionist and barman, and in a farm, where I was taking care of the animals and doing some DIY work. I’m also a bit perfectionist, so I try not to make the same mistake twice and learn from them. I have been living more than two years abroad and I had the opportunity to travel to several countries.
