Description
Hi, I'm Lena! I am a 20 year old agronomy student from Switzerland.
Before starting my degree, I completed my 3-year apprenticeship as a farmer.
I am looking to do a work exchange for a few weeks next to my studies. I have my heart set on Italy because I love the food and the culture, and it is easily accessible from my home in Switzerland. I’m eager to learn, help out, and experience the Italian way of life.
I have a wide range of interests that keep me busy. On our family farm back home, I take care of my own horse, Tissy. I am also a passionate beekeeper, mostly because I love honey so much.
When I’m not working or studying, I’m quite creative and active. I write stories, read a lot, and play the guitar. On sunny days, I love packing up my motorbike and going on camping trips. I also enjoy spending time in the gym or hanging out with friends.
About myself, I can say that I am a curious and creative person that is always eager to learn new things and make connections.
I look forward to meet:))
