Description
Hi! I'm Matteo, 34 yo, and I'm originally from Italy. I graduated in Sociology and then I moved to Australia where I spent 9 years doing lots of different jobs and personal experiences. I worked in Hospitality first as a waiter then as a Chef, as a Surf Instructor, and Social Worker. In June 2022 I left Australia and I've been traveling and working around the world since then. I usually work as a Surf instructor and Yoga Teacher but I am multitasking and can do lots of different things. I have dual nationality, Italian and Australian, and I speak Italian, English, and Spanish. I have a multicultural background and I used to live and work with people from all over the world. I love to be surrounded by nature, especially in the ocean. In my free time, I love to surf and practice any type of board sports, and I'm into yoga, hikes and walks in nature, dancing, reading, listening to music or podcasts, and playing guitar.
At the moment I'm traveling around the world and I'm looking for new exciting experiences! Would be nice to meet ya! :)Interests

More details about your skills
I did a bit of everything in my life until now. From handyman to working in hospitality and tourism, to restaurants, in both kitchen and floors, to farm work, gardening jobs, to surf coaching, to social worker, and yoga teacher. Working in different environments taught me different skills. Working as a Chef in a multicultural country like Australia, I learned to deal with people from all over the world in a busy and fast-paced environment. Then working as a Surf Instructor and Yoga Teacher, I had to tailor my classes to different individuals, of any age and different needs. Finally working as a Social Worker with families, kids, and people with disabilities, I learned to support them often during challenging situations.

What else ...
I am a really curious person, I am always happy to try new things, learn, and meet new people. I love traveling, adventures and learning about different cultures, sharing meals with people while talking about pretty much anything. I love to hear different perspectives about life. I believe everybody has something to teach us :)
