Description
Hello! We are Jessica and Maicon, a 38-year-old Brazilian couple from São Paulo who love to travel, learn new things, and connect with different people and cultures.
We firmly believe in the exchanges that life provides, and that is exactly what motivates us to volunteer.
We already had an incredible experience volunteering for a month in New York in 2022 through another platform. There, we helped with cleaning, organizing, and managing an Airbnb, as well as doing minor repairs around the house and pet sitting two cats. It was a very enriching experience that further reinforced our desire to continue exchanging help, stories, and learning around the world.
Jéssica loves to read and is a proofreader, while Maicon is a photographer and loves a good soccer game. We are both entrepreneurs and freelancers, which has taught us to be organized, proactive, and to solve problems independently.
We plan to stay in Italy to learn Italian, as we are applying for Italian citizenship.
During our volunteer work, we are happy to help with pet sitting, babysitting, cleaning, small repairs, organization, and also with social media, always giving our best and taking care of the space as if it were our own home.
We are responsible and always open to learning something new. If you are looking for a couple with positive energy, enthusiasm, and a genuine desire to collaborate, we would love to be part of your routine and exchange experiences!
