beginning '22 I want to start travelling again
Description
Hello fellow travellers and hosts!
I'm Luca, an Italian who born and grew up in Germany.

**After a year in Italy with workaway, I'm back in Germany to visit friends & family and work for the Christmas season.
Beginning of '22 I want to start travelling again.
I'm pretty open to last-minute changes for 2022 :) **

Before starting with workaway, I have spent some years living in a beautiful city in central-western Germany, with a lot of different roommates, working in an IT-Department. I'm an open-minded person who likes to meet new people, exchange experiences, learning and teaching new skills and getting to know other ways of thinking and cultural differences!

My passions are woodworking ( other DIY) and animal care.
I like to do something creative or to see something I didn't know before.

I'm here to use my free time usefully and I'm very spontaneous about that!

More details about your skills
I have a lot of experience caring for house plants and herb gardens, in both hot and cold climates.
I have built various sizes of greenhouses and garden beds.
I'm also experienced in industrial agriculture like olives and vineyards. I can drive a tractor.
I also have plenty of knowledge of how to prepare firewood both with heavy machinery and by hand.

Besides gardening, I have a lot of woodworking and building experiences like making furniture, pizza ovens, carports, garden sheds, chicken coops and fences.
I can put up drywall, lay paving stones, solve plumbing issues and make other renovation and restoration work.

I enjoy being active and improving things.

I know how to take care of animals, especially chickens, domestic pets and horses. But I would love to learn more about living on a farm and taking care of animals!
I have no problems getting my hands dirty.

Luca è un angelo non un workaway, è un raagazzogentile, educato, sensibile e affidabile.
Mi ha aiutata con tanta pazienza e calma in un momento difficile del mio progetto, dove ci sono state veramente tante cose da fare e da parte mia anche momenti di stress e tensione ma avere vicino la presenza di Luca e Ben un altro "angelo" workaway, mi sono… read more

I can only say the best for the five-week opportunity beginning in march I had to be a part of Elena’s creative and free-spirited community on top of Cava Grande. On the first day I arrived, we were welcomed by Elena and a local “giocoleria” group. Elena’s home in the mountains serves as a quiet refuge in nature and as a colourful cultural centre… read more

Chiara’s summer house rests on the edge of the Calabrian coastline, inviting the warm mediterranean sea right to her doorstep. As she described the atmosphere is warm and relaxed. Perfect for recharging my soul, and to take a momentary break from the hectic world of backpacking, as it can be sometimes.

In the three weeks, I spent here, I got to… read more

Luca è arrivato con un amico ed è rimasto qui poco più di un mese. Non riesco a ricordare tutti i lavori che ha fatto per me, ce ne sono così tanti. Dalla pulizia e ristrutturazione delle aiuole del giardino al livellamento della strada d'ingresso, dalla preparazione del terreno per l'orto alla riparazione di alcune cose nel mio camper, ma… read more

What can I say about Francesca’s beautiful farm and home that hasn’t already been said? It’s no secret that when it comes to Workaway, Francesca is a veteran who knows how to make you feel valued, and taken care of. After only five weeks, I’m already missing the wonderful food that flowed out of her kitchen, prepared with local ingredients,… read more

Luca has been truly helpful and friendly during his stay! He is both independent and can follow instructions when needed. He is really precise and we gave him full confidence in the tasks he worked on.
He has been a really great help during his stay with us and also on a personal level Luca is a great person to spend time with: friendly,… read more

I'm glad to have been with Antonio and Marcello for a month of rewarding work and refuge. Both are warm, helpful and caring souls. In light of this years difficulties for travellers due to corona Antonio and Marcello could not have been more accommodating from the beginning. As soon as lockdown started they made it clear to me that I was safe to… read more

I can count myself lucky to have been with Julia and Giuseppe for almost two months.
I couldn't have imagined my first workaway experience better.
From day one they were open, helpful and funny. Both of them were warm and respectful. They showed me the real local life! So the culture exchange was perfect.
I learned so much about animal care and… read more

We were so lucky to host Luca for almost 2 months and we already miss him. The main work he did here was to build a secured yard for our chickens. The result is FABULOUS. It's seems done by professionals. He took care of every details and put so much energy! Luca is really good with handy work. We think he can do everything.
He also built a… read more
