  • Description

    Hello! My name is Sophie I am 22 years old, from Sydney Australia. I am currently living in Rome studying Global Humanities, in my last year. I love workaway and the opportunities and experiences it has given me around the world!
    I had 3 gap years previously, During these years I have worked in various jobs in hospitality and retail, lived in Turkey, Scotland, Greece, Spain and New Zealand, I studied Spanish in Barcelona and French in Montpellier, I have done some WWOOFING in NSW Australia, backpacked northern europe (also doing workaway in Sweden and Denmark). In 2023 I did some workaways in Italy , helping with gardening , art projects and more. I also volunteered at a hostel in Lecce for a month. I have experience teaching English here in Rome and hope to learn more languages along my travels. Last summer i spent 3 months in Colombia where i worked at an NGO with helping Venezuelan immigrants and 3 other workaways, a coffee farm, permaculture farm and at a hotel ! Learning Spanish is one of my biggest goals. I currently am doing a bio - sustainable online course and intern at a migrant centre in Rome, these are both my main areas of interest.
