  • Description

    Hi :D I'm Elena, a 24-year-old university student soon graduating from my Master's in International Relations and Political Science.

    After studying about sustainability in class for years, I decided now's the time to move out of theory and start getting my hands literally on the ground.

    I grew up between Naples, the motherland of pizza ;) and Rome, Italy. During my studies I have had the opportunity to travel for indernships, exchange programs or voluntary work in between semesters - I was in England, Geneva, South Korea and most recently I've come back from a semester in Buenos Aires, Argentina.

    I would be more than happy to bring my modest help to individuals, families, farms, structures in my target countries. Also, I would love to meet fellow travelers exploring the same regions as me - please do not hesitate to get in touch :)

    About my skills:
    - I speak about 4 languages (Italian, fluent English and Spanish, conversational Korean)
    - I have experience as an English teacher for children, teenagers and individuals with learning disabilities
    - I love spending time and working with children, I think they're so fun and I match their energy very well. I love hearing them talk about how they see the world and learning from them!
    - I have almost no experience in gardening or construction BUT I am very motivated and eager to learn, learning about these skills is the main reason why I'm using Workaway :D
    - I love art, photography and DIY projects. I can play various instruments! Piano, ukulele and guitar chords
    - Can cook pretty much most Italian dishes - thanks mom❤
