Hi! I hope you're doing well :)
I'm Italian, I have been living in Mexico during 8 years, then Ireland during 3 years, and now taking some time to travel through Asia full time to experience its cultures and hopefully learn at least one of the local languages.
What I like about volunteering is the opportunity to learn new skills and languages, experience the local lifestyle, and help communities with my skills.
I enjoy different type of volunteering activities, and I'm currently particularly interested in educational tasks.
I have a degree in informatics engineering and worked in the software industry for more than 15 years now. I have previous experience teaching web development to university students and helping primary school children with after-school math classes.
I'm currently learning French and Mandarin, and also looking to train my artistic side: I used to draw, and would love to learn other artistic forms as well!
I think of myself as a trustworthy, friendly and proactive volunteer. I am also versatile, taking on cleaning and tidying tasks, handyman, teacher, project manager, and of course IT consultant.
**UPDATE**: I just started a part-time online Law course by an Italian university, and one week per month I need to attend the online classes, that, in Malaysian timezone, are from midnight until 3 AM. During that week, I will therefore need a quiet space from where I can attend the call without disturbing anyone's sleep. If the is no suitable space in your place, please let me know :)Interests

Feedback
Katy and Johannes have a very good vibe and lead their hostels with care.
I learned a lot about how to organize a hostel, and I'm sure I would have learnt more if I staid longer.
Thanks again for this opportunity :)
