Descripción
After a three years' pause from travelling with Workaway I feel it is time to update my profile.
Thanks to my experiences with Workaway hosts I have been able to share my skills and discover new european landscapes, such diverse treasures of Nature's beauty, I have become acquainted with the phonetics of the German, Swedish, Finnish languages, I have engaged with wonderful sometime intriguing but always endearing hosts. For me everyday is a new beginning. in all honesty, I am as curious and hungry to discover the wonders of the world, as I have always been. When a younger person, I knew it was essential to speak fluent English so I went to England to perfect my knowledge of the culture and language of that country and ended up living there for 17 years. I have also lived in Italy and Poland, two other countries I know fairly well.
I have had a career in the wine trade while in London but after a while decided to dedicate my time to raise my three children, to try and pass on to them essential values such as openess of mind, tolerance and self-respect. Now that they are grown-ups and on their own life-paths, I want to rekindle my life long interests of discovering new cultures, meeting lots of people and sharing my life skills and experience. So how marvellous to have discovered the possibility of travelling and sharing my skills with others.
I have always cared fro "green" issues, choosing ways of life that would have as low an impact as possible on our environment, being a vegeterian one of them.
I would prefer to help out for longer periods of time, anything from one month onwards and anywhere in Europe to start with, but not exclusively.
I have helped and visited nine different countries in Europe : Portugal, Belgium, Germany, Poland, Italy, Sweden, Finland,Sicily & Spain and I hope to be able to travel much further.

Following my heart I eventually became a « workawayer » sharing my skills across Europe, working with plants, with animals, with human beings, spreading the word on how we should
care more for our planet ; in doing so I have encountered kindred spirits, incredible people so
generous in sharing their home and their culture. I am very happy to add… read more

Coming away from Savitaipale my feelings and emotions were so high that I needed some time to let them settle down.
I could use so many superlatives and blow the Workaway ratings, so intense and unforgettable the experience and stay at Sofia's place has been. What made those five weeks so unique ?
Was it the utter beauty of Nature, so… read more

Marite was with me for five weeks. It was five nice weeks, she helped me to renovate my kitchen, and arrange the house after a longer rental. She cooked vegetarian every day and helped me go down five kilos in those weeks. She is easy to hang out with, and she always wants to help. I hope to see you again when summer has come.

I really enjoyed the easy going and relaxed atmosphere of the household ; they left me lots of free time to explore their region , full, like the whole of Italy, of so many historical, cultural places with boundless charm.
