Description

I see Workaway as more than just travel—it's a chance to exchange knowledge, build genuine relationships, and grow through new experiences. I always try to be respectful, open-minded, reliable, and willing to learn, and I'm excited to contribute my energy while becoming part of a host's daily life.

More details about my language interests
One of my main goals is to improve my English through everyday conversations and by sharing daily life with local people. I have been studying English for both my professional development and my personal interest, but I feel that what I'm really missing is the experience of living abroad and using the language every day. I believe this is the best way to become more confident, improve my communication skills, and fully experience a different culture.

More details about your skills

I have several years of experience in hospitality and guest care. I worked as a co-host in a guest house in Rome, where I welcomed guests, managed check-ins and check-outs, prepared rooms, communicated through Booking and Airbnb, and ensured every stay was comfortable and enjoyable.

I also worked as a housekeeper at The St. Regis Rome, where I developed excellent attention to detail, organisation, and high standards of cleanliness.

In addition, I am a certified Hatha Yoga teacher and have over 20 years of experience coordinating sports and wellness activities, teaching groups of all ages, and organising events.

I'm reliable, adaptable, and enjoy working with people. I'm happy to help with hospitality, housekeeping, cooking simple meals, pet care, gardening, or any daily tasks. I learn quickly, work well both independently and as part of a team, and always bring a positive attitude and a willingness to help.

What else ...

I have always had a deep passion for art history and cultural heritage. I have recently obtained my qualification to become a licensed tour guide in Rome, which is a great joy and an exciting opportunity for me. I look forward to sharing my passion for history, art, and the beauty of my city with others while continuing to learn through new cultural experiences.
