Description

Hello! I'm Valentina, a 30-year-old girl from Italy. I work a 9-17 corporate job in Management Consulting, which involves working with Excel sheets all day. Fortunately, my job is remote, allowing me the flexibility to travel extensively. I prefer slow travel, where I stay in a city for a while and live like a local. When I'm home, I used to host extensively on Couchsurfing because I enjoy meeting new people from diverse backgrounds and helping out fellow travelers.

My boyfriend is a 27-year-old software developer from Serbia. Together, we are exploring ways to make our travels more meaningful by engaging in volunteer work and contributing to the communities we visit.

In Italy, I used to volunteer with the Red Cross and at a center for adults with mental disabilities. Now, I would like to find similar opportunities while traveling. I'm particularly interested in animal welfare, such as helping out in shelters, because animals are so innocent and often still neglected, even in advanced countries like in Europe. Additionally, I see myself helping children in need or adults in fragile situations. Although I donate monthly to charity organizations, I have a strong desire to contribute with my own hands.
