Description
Hello Travelers and Hosts!
I'm Francesco, an Environmental Engineer working as a Climate and Nature Consultant in Milan, Italy. Even though I work in sustainability from a desk, I love hands-on, outdoor work, and I'm here on Workaway to learn, help, and share meaningful experiences.
Recently, I worked in a mountain hut as an all-round helper — cooking, cleaning, chopping wood — and in a surf camp, assisting with guests and logistics. I’ve also started a 100 m² vegetable garden, and I’m really enjoying getting my hands in the soil and learning by doing.
I enjoy hiking, cycling, gardening, and I try to live in a low-impact, eco-friendly way. I've traveled to over 20 countries, but now I'm looking for something more real than tourism: connection, exchange, and new challenges.
If you're looking for someone positive, reliable, and ready to get involved — I’d love to hear from you! -
