Description

Hi!
I'm Marcos. I am Italian, but my heart is rooted in Guatemala. I was adopted at the age of six and now, 22 years later, I have returned to this beautiful country to reconnect with my origins. I am currently starting this journey with a Workaway in Panajachel, Lake Atitlán.

I am looking for my next experience where I can fully immerse myself in the local culture and build authentic connections with the people. For me, this isn't just a trip; it's a way to rediscover home.

What I offer:
- Hard work and dedication
- An open, positive, and proactive attitude
- A genuine desire to learn and contribute to the community
- Deep respect for local traditions and values

What I am looking for:
I am eager to find authentic experiences in tourism, agriculture, sustainable projects, or local community initiatives where I can truly integrate and make a difference.

I look forward to sharing this journey with you and contributing to your project!
