Description

We are Lena (21 y.o.) and Emma (19 y.o.), two friends trying to find our way in life. Since we have a little pocket money and we'd like to know other cultures, we decided to travel Europe from September 2023 to indefinite date in a cheap way.
Our aim is to meet enriching people and situations, understand better our inner selves, find out who we wanna be "when we grow up".

Hey, I (Lena) can sew clothes from scratch and have worked for a sustainable fashion label before going travelling. I also love doing crochet, knitting and creating my own clothes and finding new ways to express my creativity. Since I started travelling last year, I stayed at different eco-projects and permaculture farms in Sweden, Denmark, Belgium and France where I gained some experience in gardening, eco-building and diy work but I would really love to learn more! Ohh and I also love cooking, especially for other people :)

I (Emma) enjoy cooking new and traditional meals, spending chill or productive time in nature (reading on a hammock or working in the garden as well as with animals), writing poetry and taking pictures.

More details about your skills

I (Lena) have got a lot of experience as a seamstress and have worked in the sustainable fashion industry for a while. So if you need any help with sewing work or mending old clothes, I would love to help. I also love crocheting and knitting my own clothes or if you have any art projects such as painting, I could help with that. I have some experience with ecological building and woodworking and have done a fair bit of gardening, but I would love to learn more!

I (Emma) can cook delicious meals (like traditionally italian ones) and I like physical labour, especially if outdoors.
I work as a dogsitter in my hometown and I've been a waitress as well. I have 2 little sisters and a brother, so I'm used to dealing with kids too.
Finally, I help some students with subject like English, Italian, Latin and ancient Greek.
