Ciao, Francesco and Caterina here,

******LOOKING FOR 88 DAYS VISA EXPERIENCE IN AUSTRALIA******
———————————
FRANCESCO
I am a sporty and outgoing person.I love exploring and getting out of my comfort zone, which makes me eager to learn. Let's give a brief description about myself. I already have on my shoulder 5+ workaway experiences in the last 3 years. Some of them has been short term and some long term (I ended up staying 8 months in the longest one).
During these experiences i learned how to process firewood (from cutting the tree to the splitting part) , how to work and behave with horses, how to restore and build floors/walls/ceilings , how to take care of farms animals, how to drive a quad/snowmobile/bobcat and got some gardening skills . I'm happy to be around kids as well but i'm not the best choice if you need a nanny :) .
My Professional Experiences:
Executive Chef
managers in a pizza shop (what an Italian stereotype),
worked in IT and telecommunications for 11 years
and owned a restaurant/pub for 3 years.
Handyman, hard worker, good cook and outdoor lover
CATERINA
Hi everybody, I'm a positive and cheerful city gal. For me this is my first experience abroad and I'm ready to get my hands dirty. I worked, most of my life, in hospitality, that left me great skills with people. I love to read, practising yoga, cooking and gardening. I'm ready to challenge myself with new experiences and I would like to learn new skills. I'm also, learning English, so can't wait to have long and great conversations in order to improve it.
I hope to hear from you :)Interests
