Description

Hi everyone we are Linda & Andrea!
We met in Ireland as co-workers and after 6 months of relationship we decided to move back to Italy where we spent most of last 4 years.

Andrea:
I'm a 32 years old man from Sicily (Italy).
I started to travel when I was 16, during high school I spent 8 months in Australia for an exchange program and during my university career I lived in Spain for 2 years for "Erasmus" exchange program and internship.
In 2013 I moved to Poland and after 2 years I received a job offer in Ireland that I decided to accept.
Ironically at one point I realize that I had experienced life abroad more than in my own country and for this reason in 2017 I moved back to Italy with Linda.

Linda:
I'm a 35 years old woman from Rome (Italy).
Because of my father's work I moved my first steps in Zimbabwe, I don't have much memory of that time however I certainly got imprinted with trips since then.
In 2016 I received a job offer in Ireland that brought me to a new exciting experience and moreover I met Andrea.
I love to spend time camping with friends and family and bring my smile all around the world :D

In 2019 we started our first long time trip involving Workaway experiences and surely we couldn't make a better choice.
Unfortunately, like the majority of people, we have been impacted by the pandemic emergency and we had to stop our trip and return to Italy. We had to adapt so we took advantage of this year of restrictions and lockdown to develop professional skills to work remotely, Linda as Front End Developer and Andrea with 3D Modelling.

More details about your skills

We have different backgrounds and skills but we make a good team and match our personalities every time we work on a project.
We both like cooking, handcraft, teach what we know for example language, music, math, science, IT.
It's nice to connect with people and find the most suitable way to explain something in order to make it clear and fun.
We have experience volunteering with kids, charity activities and farming.
During our previous Workaway experiences we loved taking care of animals like donkeys, chickens and we have been lucky enough to learn from a professional dog trainer.
In general we are willing to cooperate with others and share our skills.

Andrea:
I play music, mainly I play guitar but I would play any instrument.
I graduated in Economics & Tourism administration, I worked for hotels, B&B and my own project of holiday apartments in Sicily where I took care of reception, marketing, maintenance and coordinate 2 other co-workers.
