  • Description

    Hi!
    My name is Olivia and I am an enthusiastic, energetic and caring person. I’m 19 years old, and at the moment I am taking some time from my studying routine to make a step into the world and experience something different than usual. I love wandering around while learning new skills, getting to know new, interesting people and take action to try and make the planet a better place. My motivation makes me put all of myself in what I do, moreover, I am passionate and curious get to know new cultures. I am a young, open-minded woman who wants to channel her energy into something useful for others and the planet.

    What I love to do is swimming, biking, and hiking, and I would love to learn how to surf. Spending time in nature is something I really value, because I find its beauty very rare and enriching.
    I enjoy music in all of its shapes: singing, dancing and playing instruments (the guitar is the best option in my case ;).
    I am a passionate reader and, sometimes, I like to meditate.
    Having deep talks about all possible topics makes me grow as a person and gives me the opportunity to know people on a different level, which makes every experience more interesting.
    Everything involving socializing attracts my interest, as I find it amusing and very special to bond with people with all kinds of stories and backgrounds!

    More details about my language interests
    My mother tongue is Italian, but as I grew up in a bilingual entourage, I was able to learn German as well. I am willing and have the ability to teach these two languages. At school, I learned English, which I now speak fluently, so I can teach the basis of this language too. I would love to learn Spanish if there is a chance, as I find it a very beautiful and useful language.

  • More details about your skills

    I have worked in a mountain hut before, helping out in the kitchen, doing housecleaning chores, and serving clients. Therefore, I am good at both maintaining a space clean and making guests feel welcome. Moreover, I have basic bartending skills and I fastly learn how to cook new recipes.

    I worked at a bar in Berlin for a few months, so I have some bartending skills.

    I also gave math and German repetitions to kids in my small town, and through this, I learned teaching skills that could be helpful in any social job.

    Whether it is about growing a vegetable garden or being in a wild habitat, I spend a lot of time in nature, and this is why I am very helpful in this field, too.

    Not only do I enjoy being outside, but also occupy my hands and mind with precision tasks, where I have to stay focused and do detailed chores.

    Last but not least, I have a creative side (I play the guitar, I paint sometimes, I write) which makes me suitable for artistic tasks too.
