Description
Hi! My name is Sofia, I’m 19. I love traveling, photography and filmmaking. I am a first year student at a film school and I have a lot of experience with working with video content.
I have traveled a lot around the world, from America to Armenia, lived in Africa, and I love meeting new people, learning about new cultures, and sharing my own experiences with others. I’m currently on a quest to learn as many “cheers!” in foreign languages from native speakers as I can.
I’m open-minded, friendly, responsible, and hardworking. I am pretty spontaneous and love some adventure as well.
I worked as a volunteer at a camping village in Italy. I helped prepare the camping village for season: cleaned the houses, raked and weeded the garden, cleared out and prepared the common spaces like playgrounds for use.
I am a quick learner and always open to new experiences and learning new skills. I love reading classic literature and watching movies (ofc).

More details about your skills
I am the eldest child in a family with five children, so I am good with kids. Everything from feeding to playing to putting to sleep, calming down, changing, going for walks, doing homework, etc. Babies, toddlers, older children and tweens, because I've been there to help with every one of my brothers when they were growing up (and I still am, as they are all younger than 15 at the moment).
I am also not bad with tutoring, especially in English, because I am bilingual (Russian and English) and have been side hustling as an English tutor for children and teenagers for a couple years now.
I can do tasks around the house and the garden (cleaning, cooking, diy tasks, etc)
Planting, weeding, mowing the grass, watering, and all kinds of gardening.
Painting, outside and inside
Various DIY tasks
And in general anything you ask of me, I am a quick learner if the task at hand isn't something I've already done.
I am eager to help at hostels and B&Bs, as well as community projects! I love meeting new people and have no trouble doing hard work:)
I have also been working as a photographer and videographer for several years, so I can both film and photograph, as well as edit in Lightroom and DaVinci Resolve. I would love to help out with setting up personal websites or social media for projects.

What else ...
I am an active and sporty person (I've done aerial gymnastics, acrobatics, horse riding, and fencing), enjoy hiking, swimming, but also able to do physically tasking work.
One of my main dreams is to learn as much as possible about sailing and sailboats. I love sailing.
I read a lot and enjoy conversations on different topics with people of diverse viewpoints and backgrounds.
