Description
My name's Elisa and I come from Orvieto, a little village in Italy.

I speak fluent Italian, Spanish, English, Brazilian Portuguese, and basic French. I'm a Tour Guide in Italy and here in Colombia I've been volunteering and enjoying adventure!

I believe being a workawayer is an amazing opportunity to use my skills, learn something new and give back to local communities.

While volunteering I love language exchange, cooking, taking care of pets and animals, cultivating, working at the Reception, painting, gardening and much more! I'm curious and passionate about learning new tasks.

I love rescuing pets while traveling, my fellow is a lovely lady dog, Pantera. She is well mannered and clean, and everybody falls in love with her.

I naturally connect with people from different cultural backgrounds, I enjoy socializing with other travelers and share experiences.

We really enjoyed having Elisa in our hostel, she is amazing, very active and always willing to help you, even in her free time. She speaks many languages, what gives her a plus.

The hostel is located in the best barrio of Bucaramanga, the facilities are new and clean, there's hot shower and the dormitory is cozy. I loved working here, it felt like a second home.… read more
