Description
Buongiorno :)

I'm Simona and I love to discover this wonderful World travelling and getting in contact with different cultures to observe from another point of views, learn new languages and be amazed.
I would like to learn to live respecting the nature and the people - that's why I'm into ecoprojects, ecobuildings, permaculture, recycling - and one day building my own ecological house, where everybody who wants to learn is welcome and where there is always time for passions - mine are reading, writing, yoga, sports, musci, walking, gardening, descovering.
I work as a psychiatric nurse in Berlin ans I am really into public health and charity projects as well.
I’ve studyed psychology as well and did 2 Yoga teacher training in India (Gokarna and Rishikesh - Hatha, Asthtanga, Vinyasa).
Thank you to workaway I could learn many skills while joining to different projects around the world. I have experience in natural bilding, gardening, taking care of animals, hostels, event organizing, social work and work with children.

This place is wonderful! The park is so quite with a lot of green, birds, a river and a sweet dog. The room for the volonteers is comfortable and you feel home from the first time.

I loved this place and I wished I could have spend more time here.
The people living here are so kind and know a lot of things about carpentry and gardening. I helped building a bridge, cutting wood, planting in the garden and feeding the animals. The surrounding area is peaceful and super green, a perfect place to enjoy the nature!

We were so lucky to start our spring work season with such a wonderful volunteer as Simona! She is responsible, very sociable, and willing to try and learn new things. She worked with us for two weeks on a bio-construction project filling walls with straw bathed in clay, in addition to helping us plant one of the nut trees in our new forest… read more

I'm really glad I had the opportunity to know this place! Here you can learn a lot about biocostruction, permaculture and coliving, work with enthusiastic people always ready to teach you what they know (and they know a lot!), eat healthy and tasty food and share with really nice people.
The location is wonderful, in the valdivian forest but also… read more

Amrit is not an host, is a friend. I shared with him so much and I felt always so comfortable. It was really important for me arriving in India and having a friend ready to pick me up at the airport, show me around and explaining to me everything (he knows a lot!). He cooks really tasty food, he helped me to book my ticket for the next… read more

Sebastiaan and his family are amazing hosts, that let you feel comfortable from the first moment and treat you as a member of the family. The place is peaceful and surrounded by nature. The work was fun and you can learn a lot, working or just listening to Sebastiaan's stories. I really hope to come back one day to see the farm finished :)
