Hey there!
My name is Franco and I am 29.
I grew up in Bologna, Italy.
Since early age, i wasn't very found of schools and jobs...so i did a quick cooking school, to be able to finally get out into the world and have an adventurous life!
I have been on workaway for about 8 years, and travelled before that as well.
In the last ten years , i worked as :
Cook, homeless charity worker, Support worker, guest house manager, warehouse worker, forniture assembler, Supermarket worker, carpenter, painter, farmer (cows, sheep, chickens, goats) , baby sitter , elderly carer, pet sitter, gardener, vegetable farmer.
The most beautiful place, in my journey, has been Thailand.
I see myself living there in the near future.
The fruits, the sun, the locals, the nature...
I stayed for 9 months and i left with the feeling of "i found my place".
The best Workaway experience has probably been two years helping to relieve homelessness in Scotland, although i had many wonderful experiences over the years...
( and some a little less wonderful :D)
I speak Spanish, Italian and English fluently.
I love meeting new people, feeling the fire in our hearts, diving deep into conversations and experiencing the diversity of life.
Spiritual process is at the base of my life, as i am commited to growth and transformation every day.
I enjoy various sports (bodyweight workout, pullups, swimming,hiking) , walking around, just chilling , sunbathing, listening to music, doing Yoga, talking to friends and cooking some good food!
I am so happy when people can have a laugh and don't take life too seriously!
I love food, and i care deeply about it being fresh and nutritious.

(Welcoming help with my dogs ...)
Manon was very hospitable and the dogs are sweet and loving, i enjoyed spending time with her and walking around Almere with Bucky, Lily and Luna.
It was a perfect place to relax and at the same time enjoy some dynamic action helping in the Garden, cooking, walking with the doggies and doing some renovations.
Best Wishes!!

Sometimes you get to do what is actually needed and urgent instead of what is whimsical, and it feels great!
I enjoyed home made meals at night and the neighbors were good as well.
The spot is very natural and so lots of birds, wallabees, a horse, dogs and various tipes of rodents.

Franco was such a great help - over all expectations!
He got so much done in very short time.
I would have him back any time. Unfortunately he had other commitments and had to leave.
