Descripción
Ciao a tutti! We are Irene (32) and Emanuele (31), a stable Italian couple together for 4 years, travelling and working abroad since 2023.

We have solid Workaway experience in Australia and Southeast Asia, so we understand how this exchange works: clear communication, reliability, flexibility and respect for shared spaces. We integrate easily, take initiative and genuinely enjoy contributing.

We both speak fluent English (and French: Irene fluent, Emanuele conversational). We are used to multicultural environments and teamwork.
Our background includes:
- Pet sitting (dogs & cats but also possums and Australia native birds)
- Housekeeping & home care
- Hospitality support (reception in resort)
- Content creation & communication
- General practical help and outdoor work
We love nature, mountains and active lifestyles (hiking, climbing, exploring), but we are equally comfortable with daily routines and responsibilities. We are tidy, organised and independent.

For the summer season (May–October), we are looking for a paid part-time position. After several positive volunteer experiences, we now wish to stay longer in one place, build stronger connections and immerse ourselves more deeply in the local culture while maintaining stability and continuing our remote personal projects.

We are hardworking, easygoing and positive people who enjoy sharing spaces, conversations and simple joyful moments but we are also serious, responsible and committed when it comes to work.
If you are looking for a reliable couple who already knows how Workaway works and truly wants to contribute, we would love to connect.

Algo más...
Emanuele
Loves sports (tennis, basketball), mountain life and playing guitar whenever he finds one around. Curious in the kitchen and always happy to experiment with new recipes. Don't leave him with a oven... you won't be able to stop him.

Irene
Loves hiking, rollerblading, snorkeling and getting lost in a good book. Finds peace outdoors and energy in meaningful conversations.

Together
We enjoy simple things: cooking and sharing meals, long walks, music evenings, spontaneous laughs and discovering local traditions.

For us, Workaway is not just about helping: it’s about meeting different people, exchanging stories, learning from each other and truly experiencing a place from the inside.

Thank you Bountlisth, Bountan, Bank, Beem and Bieu.. you will be forever in our Laos memories and in our hearts. With this workaway, you can really live the slow life in the countryside of Laos and have plenty of time to walk, relax, or work on your personal projects. Bountan will cook for you 3 times a day and she really understands if you have… read more

We spent 10 days at Vijja Bhikkhuni Aramaya with Luangmae and the other nuns, and of course, volunteers. It has been a unique experience, especially having the possibility to visit a Thai school and teach English to the kids, and also explore the local market. Collecting alms in the morning is a truly life-changing experience, and we're really… read more grateful to have been part of it.
The centre is a Theravadan Buddhist women's monastic community located near the village of Ban Rai in the Uthai Thani province of Thailand. The center is situated in a rural area, approximately 8 km from Ban Rai village. The center provides a place for novice nuns and fully ordained nuns, as well as Dhamma training and meditation, and walking meditation.

Your days are structured by a timetable that you can find in the common area and other volunteers can help you understand better what to do and that you have a lot of free time: so enjoy and be present and mindful of the moment you're living.
Every day starts at 4.30am: you have 30 mins to get ready and from 5 to 5:45 you meditate in the area with the nuns and volunteers; then we split in 2 groups so one stay and clean and prepare for breakfast and the other goes to collect the alms with the nuns. We can start eating around 7:30 and 8:30 depending if it's Buddha Day or not, but you can drink a coffee or tea while you wait. At 6:30pm you do half an hour of chanting and half an hour of meditation, then you go to bed or can stay until 9 pm in the common area if you like (but mosquitos can be annoying).

The accommodation is very rustic and don't expect comfort: you can have a 20cm gecko in your room but this can also be a chance to overcome your mental limits so... always see the positive and experience the real countryside in Thailand. You don't come here to be in a fancy room or on holiday. You must have a reason.

We're grateful for this experience, the nuns are always smiling and some of them shy but it's also because of the language barrier (only a couple of them speak a proper English) but remember that it's not always important to explain and talk all the time, you can experience and understand a lot simply by watching and listening to the nuns. They love cats and treat them like humans sometimes feeding them with warm water because "it's good for them".. so funny and cute.

Thank you Luangmae and all the nuns.

We've spent 12 days at Resort in Khao Sok National Park. This is definitely the best WorkAway we've experienced so far after having used the platform for 2 years in Australia and made so many connections and new friends.
